Dear Bill

To accompany our message about Roboastra luteolineata feeding on Tambja verconis here are a couple more shots. The upper one is after it has finished swallowing the Tambja and the lower one show it still in the process of getting it down.

Have to agree with it not being a Tambja.

Kind regards
Ross and Diane

Thanks Ross and Diane,
It really looks a happy Roboastra in the top photo.
Cheers,
