Succinea consume small plants such as mosses as well as leaf litter. Specifically

is known to live in leaf liter, and is also known to be attracted to light, an unusual characteristic in snail. In mating, the snails are hermaphrodites and mate reciprocally (both snails transfer sperm into one another), however many have preferences in what role they take - some actively seek out mates, mounting the others' shell, while others do not.
