Terrestrial molluscs are generally omnivores, known to feed on a variety of organic materials including green and dead herbaceous plants, fungi, fecal matter, and dead animals, including other snails (Narayanan and Aravind 2022). Natural history observations pertaining to terrestrial snails within India are scattered, and are known from only a few Indian molluscs (Oli 1999; Narayanan and Aravind 2022). In this work, I report an observation of an ariophantid snail (Ariophanta sp.) scavenging a dead Sharavathy Vinesnake (Ahaetulla farnsworthi Mallik et al. 2020).
