Abstract

A comparative analysis of the camera eyes of gastropod pulmonate molluscs Cepaea nemoralis and Cepaea hortensis was carried out on the basis of original and published data. It was demonstrated that the eyeballs and their main components in C. nemoralis and C. hortensis have more similarities in morphological and optical properties than in anatomical parameters.
