eoliska

Eoliska is a genus of small, terrestrial snails belonging to the family Pupillidae. These snails are characterized by their elongated, ovate shells, which are typically smooth or faintly ribbed. The aperture of the shell is often small and narrowly ovate, and the lip may be reflected or thickened. Eoliska species are found in various habitats, including grasslands, woodlands, and rocky areas, primarily in Europe and Asia. They are herbivorous, feeding on algae, fungi, and decaying plant matter. Reproduction is oviparous, with females laying small clutches of eggs. The exact number of species within the genus Eoliska can vary depending on taxonomic classification, but it is generally considered to contain a relatively small number of species. Research on Eoliska is ongoing, with efforts focused on understanding their ecological roles, distribution, and conservation status.
