FWS Digital Media Library — The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s National Digital Library is a searchable collection of selected images, historical artifacts, audio clips, publications, and video. Newcombia cumingi, common name Newcomb’s Tree snail, is a species of air-breathing land snail, a terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusk in the family Achatinellidae. This species is endemic to Hawaii, the United States. Similar to other achatinellid tree snails of Hawaii, the Newcomb’s tree snail feeds on fungi and algae which grow on the leaves and trunks of living native Hawaiian trees. The Newcomb’s tree snail is believed to exhibit the slow growth and low reproductive rate of other Hawaiian tree snails belonging to this family. Newcomb’s tree snail has been reported living on small trees of the native plant Metrosideros polymorpha (ohia lehua). Snails are most common in areas with a high percent cover of both Dicranopteris linearis (uluhe) and ohia lehua and are not present in areas where ohia cover is diminished and uluhe is replaced by grasses
