List of molluscs recorded in the Netherlands
Encyclopedia
This list of non-marine molluscs of the Netherlands
is a list of all molluscs other than the marine (salt water
) species
that live in the Netherlands. This list comprises land snails and slugs, freshwater snails and freshwater clams and mussels. There are 197 non-marine mollusc
species living in natural habitat
s in the Netherlands
.
There are 169 gastropod
(snail and slug) species (52 freshwater and 117 land species), and 28 freshwater bivalve
(clams and mussel) species living in the wild.
As for introduced species, there are 23 introduced
gastropod species (2 freshwater and 21 land species plus Candidula unifasciata
as possibly non-indigenous one), and 4 bivalve species, living in natural habitats in the Netherlands. A total of 5 freshwater non-indigenous species live in natural habitats.
Summary table of number of species
There are 4 locally extinct species in the Netherlands: the marine gastropod Rissoa membranacea, land gastropod Spermodea lamellata
, and freshwater bivalves Unio crassus and Pisidium tenuilineatum
