- List of molluscs recorded in Slovakia
There are 254 (according this list, for more recent information see "Recommended literature" section) species of molluscs living in the wild in
Slovakia . In addition there are at least 1 gastropod species ingreenhouse s.There are 228 species of gastropods (53 species of
freshwater gastropod s, 175 species of land gastropods) and 26 species of bivalves living in the wild.There are 4
non-indigenous species of gastropods (2 freshwater and 2 land species) and 2 species of bivalves in the wild in Slovakia. This is altogether 4 freshwater non-indigenous species of wild molluscs.;Summary table of number of species
There are 3 extinct species in Slovakia (
locally extinct ): "Theodoxus transversalis ", "Esperiana esperi " and "Vallonia declivis ".There are endemic species of molluscs in Slovakia:
*"Alzoniella slovenica " in Slovakia (and in Moravia in The Czech Republic too)
