ZooKeys 219: 11–61. doi: 10.3897/zookeys.219.3406 Abstract Using published records and original data from recent field work and revision of Iranian material of cer- tain species deposited in the collections of the Natural History Museum Basel, the Zoological Museum Berlin, and Natural History Museum Vienna, a checklist of the freshwater gastropod fauna of Iran was compiled. This checklist contains 73 species from 34 genera and 14 families of freshwater snails; 27 of these species (37%) are endemic to Iran.

Anisus Vorticulus (Troschel 1834) (Gastropoda: Planorbidae) in Northeast Germany
JOURNAL OF CONCHOLOGY (2013), VOL.41, NO.3 389 SOME ECOLOGICAL PECULIARITIES OF ANISUS VORTICULUS (TROSCHEL 1834) (GASTROPODA: PLANORBIDAE) IN NORTHEAST GERMANY MICHAEL L. ZETTLER Leibniz Institute for Baltic Sea Research Warnemünde, Seestr. 15, D-18119 Rostock, Germany Abstract During the EU Habitats Directive monitoring between 2008 and 2010 the ecological requirements of the gastropod species Anisus vorticulus (Troschel 1834) were investigated in 24 different waterbodies of northeast Germany. 117 sampling units were analyzed quantitatively. 45 of these units contained living individuals of the target species in abundances between 4 and 616 individuals m-2. More than 25.300 living individuals of accompanying freshwater mollusc species and about 9.400 empty shells were counted and determined to the species level. Altogether 47 species were identified. The benefit of enhanced knowledge on the ecological requirements was gained due to the wide range and high number of sampled habitats with both obviously convenient and inconvenient living conditions for A. vorticulus. In northeast Germany the amphibian zones of sheltered mesotrophic lake shores, swampy (lime) fens and peat holes which are sun exposed and have populations of any Chara species belong to the optimal, continuously and densely colonized biotopes. The cluster analysis emphasized that A. vorticulus was associated with a typical species composition, which can be named as “Anisus-vorticulus-community”. In compliance with that both the frequency of combined occurrence of species and their similarity in relative abundance are important. The following species belong to the “Anisus-vorticulus-community” in northeast Germany: Pisidium obtusale, Pisidium milium, Pisidium pseudosphaerium, Bithynia leachii, Stagnicola palustris, Valvata cristata, Bathyomphalus contortus, Bithynia tentaculata, Anisus vortex, Hippeutis complanatus, Gyraulus crista, Physa fontinalis, Segmentina nitida and Anisus vorticulus. -

Using the Jolly-Seber Model to Characterise Xerolenta Obvia (Gastropoda: Geomitridae) Population ISSN 2255-9582

In Latvia, this species was first recorded in 1989 in Liepāja. Observations in recent years in Liepāja have shown that snails from their initial introduction sites on the railway have also spread to the sand dune habitats within the city limits. Given that there are no snails in dune habitats that are biologically equivalent to X. obvia, this species is considered to be potentially invasive. As the distribution trends of this species in Liepāja indicate a possible threat to dry habitats in natural areas, detailed study of the species was conducted for the population of this species located in Dobele. Monitoring was performed from May 26 to August 5, 2019, carrying out 11 surveys with one week interval using the capture and re-capture method. The maximum recorded distance travelled by of one snail was 29.7 m; the calculated minimum estimated population density was 170 individuals and the maximum was 2004 individuals. Key words: alien species, Dobele population, eastern heath snail, Helicella candicans, Helicella obvia, potentially invasive species. -

Thus the impact of management on two xerothermophilous terrestrial gastropod species, Zebrina detrita and Caucasotachea UNESCO Wienerwald vindobonensis, and on land snails in general, was evaluated in the vineyard area of northern Vienna. This area belongs to the buffer zone of UNESCO Wienerwald Biosphere Reserve in Austria. A total of 18 sites were investigated, including vineyard Biosphere Reserve embankments and dry meadows with different intensity levels of clearing and grub- bing in recent years. Occurrence of both target species and their ability to recolonize Mountain range newly created habitats were assessed. Snails are able to colonize new areas in direct vicinity of existing populations that are above detection level. Only annually repeated Alps clearing of meadows and embankments with originally strong shrub coverage result- ed in a visible effect. Continuous clearing efforts over 10 years were associated with Country a dense population of Z. detrita on a formerly unsuited bush-covered meadow. In contrast, vineyard embankments that were cut free just once within two years before Austria the study harboured only a few specimens of Z.
