Helicina fasciata

Helicina fasciata is a species of tropical land snail with an operculum, a terrestrial gastropod mollusc in the family Helicinidae.

[1] Although this taxon was not collected during the surveys in Dominica in 2000s, it is considered as a part of land snail fauna of Dominica.

[1] Thirteen specimens that were part of the collection by Benjamin Sharp definitely belong to this taxon.

[1] These specimens also lend credence to the record by A. D. Brown (1881).

[2] As the species appears to be widespread in the Lesser Antilles as a result of human activities, it is quite possible that Helicina fasciata once had a population on the Dominica island; this may still be the case.
