Urban Cepaea nemoralis snails are less likely to have nematodes trapped within their shells by Dahirel, Maxime, Reyné, Hannah, De Wolf, Katrien, Bonte, Dries

“…We examined shells from the generalist snail Cepaea nemoralis sampled in three urban areas in Belgium for trapped nematodes, and attempted to link this to urbanization and shell phenotypic traits. We found that even a small degree of urbanization led to large decreases in the rates of shell encapsulation, and that larger snails were more likely to contain trapped nematodes. …”
