Snail This small Snail was found in the same location as previous Spotting.<br />
The Shell is mostly Yellow in the centre to green on the outer shell.  A hint of blue is showing towards the end and it also has the brown band on the side of its shell.<br />

Have posted this to a Snail/Gastropod forum for ID and the possible genus ID I received was Asperitas.<br />
<br />
Have also contacted local (Filipino) University for help with the ID but they were more interested to know of the &#039;exact&#039; location where I found this Snail.<br />
