摘要

摘要：白化蜗牛在野外很少见。在这里，我们发现了一个完全白化的夸氏Euhadra quaesita quaesita（Deshayes，1850）个体。与野生型E.quaesita quaesita柔软身体上深色和浅棕色凸起的马赛克形成对比的是，白化个体的柔软身体是白色或淡黄色，除了头部疣。我们假设头疣的颜色来源于性激素，因为黑色素在头疣上皮细胞中丢失。发现一个白化的E.quaesita quaesita打开了多个新的调查线索的机会。

Record of an Albino Land Snail Euhadra quaesita

Abstract: Albino land snails are rare in the wild. Here we report finding an individual Euhadra quaesita quaesita (Deshayes, 1850) showing total albinism. In contrast to the mosaic of dark and light-brown bumps on the soft body of wild-type E. quaesita quaesita, the soft body of the albino individual was white or pale yellow, except for the head wart. We hypothesize the color of the head wart is derived from sex hormones as melanin pigments were lost in head-wart epithelial cells. Finding an albino E. quaesita quaesita opens opportunities for multiple new lines of inquiry.
