}}

Helicina platychila is a species of tropical land snail with an operculum, a terrestrial gastropod mollusk in the family Helicinidae.

The description of Helicina epistilia Guppy, 1868 matches this species, and these names are therefore considered synonyms.[2]

Shell description

As in many helicinid species, the shell of Helicina platychila can be yellow, to red, to brown in colour.[2]

Distribution

This species lives in Guadeloupe, Dominica and in Martinique.[2]

The type locality is Guadeloupe.[1]

Ecology

Helicina platychila is fairly common arboreally on branches and leaf surfaces, and between detritus and leaves on the ground, occasionally together with Helicina guppyi in Dominica.[2]
