Myosotella myosotis

see "List of Synonyms" Myosotella myosotis, common name the mouse ear snail, is a European species of small salt marsh snail, a terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusc in the family Ellobiidae.

The shell varies from yellowish to brownish in color and can be either smooth or finely striated, with a shiny surface.

The form denticulata is characterized by 3 to 6 short, thin folds resembling droplets near the palatal margin of the inner lip.

The complete nucleotide sequence of the mitochondrial genome of Myosotella myosotis has been available since 2008.

[4] This species lives right at sea level (at the highest high-tide level), and so therefore the minimum recorded depth for this species is 0 m, and the maximum recorded depth is 0 m.[4]
