The year of 2018 starts with a change of focus into Urban Ecology and the study of the effects of urban heat islands on populations of Lymnaea stagnalis (Linnaeus, 1758). After much work, we were able to find suitable populations for our study near České Budějovice. Below some cool photos taken in the pursuit of these snails.
Back at the lab, snails entered a 6 week experiment, after which we conducted some tests to compare urban and rural populations.
