 In "Paryphanta busbyi" the anterior vaginal chamber doubtless undergoes complete eversion, and the vaginal papilla will be thrust outwards to a considerable degree—probably to a much greater extent than the appearance of the organ in its present condition suggests.These large snails live in litter, among plants on the ground and under logs in kauri forests and in shrubland.In some areas they have been reported to at times frequent underground habitats including burrowing deep into soft soil.
