Bradybaena similaris, the Asian trampsnail, is a species of small, invasive land snail. It is a pulmonate gastropod terrestrial mollusc in the family Bradybaenidae. It earned the common name based on its origins, and its habit of roosting on freight containers [citation needed]. This habit means that this may be one of the most broadly-distributed species of terrestrial snail in the world[citation needed]. Bradybaena similaris is the type species of the genus Bradybaena.
