Abstract

In this paper, land-snail species belonging to the superfamilies Ellobioidea, Achatinoidea, Chondrinoidea, Pupilloidea, Punctoidea, Discoidea, Oleacinoidea, and Succineoidea are reviewed with regard to their historic and recent distribution in Serbia. The most important literature data related to species’ distribution belonging to aforementioned groups are summarized. Distribution maps, based on both literature and newly collected data, are provided for each species. Besides, more detailed data on all up-to-date known localities in Serbia are provided. Photographs of shells are provided for each species. The latest checklist of Serbian gastropods is revised, and five species are reported for the first time from Serbia: Chondrula microtragus (Rossmässler, 1839), Ena subtilis (Rossmässler, 1837), Gonyodiscus rotundatus (O.F. Müller, 1774), Paralaoma servilis (Shuttleworth, 1852), and Lucilla singleyana (Pilsbry, 1889). The presence of Pupilla sterrii (Voith, 1840) in Serbia is confirmed after almost 70 years, and the presence of Gittenbergia sororcula (Benoit, 1859) in Serbia is also confirmed.
