[ citation needed ] The shell, which is conical in shape, often consists of dark brown and yellowish tan bands, leading to some people to refer to it as the bumble bee snail, a ...

This list of non-marine molluscs of Germany is a list of the molluscs that live in Germany, excluding the marine species.

The species easily attaches itself to stones, which allows it to live in fast-running waters and in wave zone in lakes. [35] The ability of Theodoxus fluviatilis to live in freshwater and also in brackish water demonstrates the phenotypic plasticity of this species. [11] This small snail can live in up to 60 m depth in coastal waters. [18]
