Daedalochila



Daedalochila is a genus of air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the family Polygyridae.

These are small snails, only about 10 mm to 15 mm in diameter (or approximately one-half inch), notable for their elaborately convoluted apertures, with only very narrow openings. Their range is limited to the southern United States and northern Mexico.
