Land Snail Assemblages of Olive Orchards in Crete, Greece
Diversity, 2022 Land snail biodiversity research in agroecosystems is limited, if non-existent. Here we investigate the land snail assemblages of olive orchards in Messara plain, Crete, Greece. Land snails were collected from 16 olive orchards. In addition, we performed
