[3] Flamed tigersnails are medium-sized snails with shells ranging from 17 to 25 millimeters (0.67 to 0.98 inches) in diameter.
The eggs the species lays tend to range from 2 to 3 mm (0.08 to 0.12 in) in diameter, are ovate, white in color, and have a gelatinous coating that likely acts as protection.
[3] The flamed tigersnail is found in urban and rural environments across the United States and Canada.
The most northern and eastern portion of its range is in New Brunswick, Canada, and it extends to Florida in the south to Kansas in the west.
They are most commonly found in forests or glades near streams, climbing on trees, limestone outcrops, or buried in leaf litter.
[10] Flamed tigersnails tend to live in groups, commonly burrowing and hibernating together during winter months.
[9] Generally, flamed tigersnails are herbivores that feed on decaying plant material, fungi, and algae.
