Disclaimer: This observation includes ALL the photographs I intended to take of this particular organism. That may NOT include images of the entire organism, all of its defining characteristics, or the general area in which it was found. I am already aware that this may reduce the likelihood of a species level identification.

Almost all potential habitat was fenced, found one good spot outside the fence. Very few shells seen, only one live snail but more habitat up behind fence. Thick shell, no spiral striae, glossy wrinkled surface, diameter 20mm, height 11 mm, mostly open umbilicus, about 2.8 mm. In proper area for cuyama.
The last photo is of a snail shell embedded in tufa with moss growing in it. This is likely an H. cuyama shell, same location as the live one. The tufa indicates there has been water here for many years, probably a seep or spring upslope.

There are three lizards in this picture. Probable mating behavior?
