Exploring land snails’ response to habitat characteristics and their potential as bioindicators of riparian forest quality

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2021
Riparian ecosystems are crucial for landscape-level biodiversity, especially in highly anthropic and agricultural areas. Although the low mobility of snails reduces their dispersal capacity and makes them vulnerable to habitat degradation, they are less ...
