Structure-behaviour correlations between two genetically closely related snail species by Le Ferrand, Hortense, Morii, Yuta

“…When under attack from a beetle, K. editha snails retract into their shells whereas K. gainesi snails swing their shells. In this paper, we looked at the microstructure, composition, morphology and mechanics of the shells of these two species and discuss potential relationships between material structure and the snails’ defence behaviours. …”
