Abstract

Observations have been carried out in such types of biotopes as lowland and floodplain meadows. Individuals
of Succinea putris (L.) prefer to settle in the litter and on the leaf surface of herbaceous plants. Between June and
September 85—100 % of all individuals of Succinea putris population inhabit leaves of plants. There are specimens
with a shell larger than 8 mm. Succinea putris prefers to settle on the leaves of such plants as Aegopodium podagraria L.,
Urtica dioica L. and Cirsium arvense L. Succinea putris leave leaf litter in October. During this period both young
individuals with a shell size of 2—6 mm and large mollusks with a shell size of 10—16 mm are present in the litter.
