Clausilie Romaine, prisoner of the arenas since 2000 years
The Roman clausilie (leucostigma candidescens) is a snail living only in the Apennines near Rome and in the arenas of Nimes. It remained hidden in the arenas of Nimes for 2000 years.
Since its discovery in 1903, the nail fell into oblivion.
