Stenotrema barbigerum - Fringed Slitmouth Snail

Small, brown, terrestrial snail with long, coppery hairs on its shell surface. Many scientists hypothesize that these hairs are an adaptation for movement through wet habitats. NatureServe lists Stenotrema barbigerum as G3/G4 (Globally Vulnerable). On a national level (in the US), S. barbigerum is listed as N3N4 (Vulnerable).

Habitat:
Resting on a red oak leaf in a moist, dense mixed hardwood forest.
