Indrella ampulla
Indrella ampulla is a species of tropical terrestrial air-breathing gastropod mollusk in the family Ariophantidae.This is the only species in the genus Indrella, however the animal color is polymorphic: the visible soft parts of the snail can be various colors, including red and pale yellow.
This is the type species of the monotypic genus Indrella, which is endemic to the Western Ghats of India.This species lives in wet woodland, i.e. tropical rainforest.
I see them around during monsoon.
