Default Re: ampullaria " hot lip " speckled

I just cannot understand why there is not much diversity of ampularia forms in Peninsular Malaysia. We always see the green or speckle form but no red form, hot lips, etc.

The first picture really shows the peristome colour transformation at different stages. With each new leaf the peristome gets more red. Nice shot Robert.
