Species list/information site

[AlienSnail]

AnimalBase ;D

Here is a site listing several species of animal, but mainly gastropods with a high proportion of snails, from around the world. It has some information on each species, e.g. distribution, rarity, description etc, where available, some species have very little information. I love the design and overall concept of this site though

Gastropod homepage:

Here is an example of the list, this one being the species beginning with 'A'. The list of Achatina snails is woefully l;acking, and the Archachatina none-existant, though it is still a good site.

Here is a list of thunbnail pictures, taken from the entire list of animals (or at least those with pictures) You can see many of them are snails, but this page will take you a while to load.

It's a great site, an interesting read, especially looking at the thumbnail list, but certainly incomplete.
