Distribution
This Southeast Asian species occurs in the Tak Province in northern Thailand.[4]
Feeding habits
Like all snails in the clade Neogastropoda, this species is carnivorous. It feeds on different types of worms and gastropods, often eating other, larger snails after burying themselves and ambushing their prey.[3]
Reproduction
Clea wykoffi consists of defined male and female genders, and is not capable of gender change. It is unknown as to how to sex these animals. Both males and females seem to be the same size and shape. When a male and female mate, they lock together for 8–12 hours.
gollark: Make `total` into an int. Replace `total += 254./3.;` with `total = min(2, max(0, total + 1))` or something, if the arduinos' weird language has that. Do `analogWrite(LED, total * 85)`. QED.
gollark: Make the total an integer from 0 to 2 or something and enforce this, then multiply by 85 in the analogWrite bit.
gollark: The main issue is that data is just *data*, and can't corrupt itself in some way if you do stuff wrong or enforce timeouts, only the programs operating on it can (and generally do).
gollark: Basically, if someone copies the relevant data elsewhere, to a system without your time limits, you can't enforce them without it actually being computationally hard.
gollark: You can only time out/limit passwords beyond any restrictions imposed by the actual computational difficulty if you control the software being used to handle said passwords.
