    • Indeed, I did. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:39, 26 October 2020 (UTC)
•  Support Yes, boring colours, but amazing internal detail. What is the purpose of the 'teeth'? Charlesjsharp (talk) 10:33, 25 October 2020 (UTC)
  •  Comment I suppose that it is an protection against predators, when the animal is retracted in the shell. In contrary to many sea and freshwater snails, most of he land snails lack an operculum, which has amongst others the same function. At any rate these teeth are very useful for taxonomists, for their arrangement (different in every species) helps to identify the species ;-). --Llez (talk) 11:59, 25 October 2020 (UTC)
