Shell colour luminance of Cuban painted snails, Polymita picta and Polymita muscarum (Gastropoda: Cepolidae). by Mario Juan Gordillo-Pérez, Natalie Beenaerts, Dunia L Sánchez, Karen Smeets, Yaumel Calixto Arias-Sosa, Bernardo Reyes-Tur

“…The variation in shell colour luminance is characterized in the threatened endemic Eastern Cuban tree snails Polymita picta and Polymita muscarum using digital tools; being able to discriminate shell luminance between colour morphs for both species, under different image-taking conditions. For P. muscarum, the albino morph presented the highest luminance values (152.7 ± 0.4); while the lowest values correspond to the brown morph with dark bands (112.9 ± 0.8). …”
