Caracollina Lenticula
''Caracollina lenticula'' is a species of gastropods belonging to the family Trissexodontidae. It is more commonly known as the lens snail. Habitat The species is found in Mediterranean. It is known to live under rocks, and can be found on walls, between plants, and on behind dunes around dry costal area. They can be found around human habitation and more urban areas, due to the fact that they can spread via the transportation of goods. Identification The lens snail's shell is found to be flat and lenticular. They are a lightly colored gray, with a reddish brown shell. It has large antennas with black eyes. During movement, the shell of the snail twists sideways to the right, making it flat, unlike most gastropods. They can grow up to 3 to 7 mm long.

Gastropods
Gastropods (), commonly known as slugs and snails, belong to a large taxonomic class of invertebrates within the phylum Mollusca called Gastropoda (). This class comprises snails and slugs from saltwater, freshwater, and from the land. There are many thousands of species of sea snails and slugs, as well as freshwater snails, freshwater limpets, land snails and slugs. The class Gastropoda is a diverse and highly successful class of mollusks within the phylum Mollusca. It contains a vast total of named species, second only to the insects in overall number. The fossil history of this class goes back to the Late Cambrian. , 721 families of gastropods are known, of which 245 are extinct and appear only in the fossil record, while 476 are currently extant with or without a fossil record. Gastropoda (previously known as univalves and sometimes spelled "Gasteropoda") are a major part of the phylum Mollusca, and are the most highly diversified class in the phylum, with 65,00 ...

Trissexodontidae
Trissexodontidae is a family (biology), family of air-breathing land snails, terrestrial molluscs, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the superfamily Helicoidea (according to the Taxonomy of the Gastropoda (Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005), taxonomy of the Gastropoda by Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005). This family has no subfamilies. The family Trissexodontidae was separated out from the families Hygromiidae and Helicodontidae, and some authors still classify these species within those families. Distribution The distribution of Trissexodontidae includes the Iberian Peninsula, northwest Africa, Azores, List of non-marine molluscs of the Canary Islands, Canary Islands, List of non-marine molluscs of Madeira, Madeira and Cape Verde. Genera Genera within the family Trissexodontidae include: * ''Caracollina'' Beck, 1837Prieto C. E., Puente A. I, Altonaga K. & Gomez J. (1993).
