Expansion of the Range of the Black Sea Snail Lithoglyphus naticoides (C. Pfieffer, 1828) (Mollusca: Gastropoda: Lithoglyphidae) and Associated Trematode Species in the Upper Volga Basin

Resumo

The Black Sea snail Lithoglyphus naticoides (C. Pfieffer, 1828) (Mollusca: Gastropoda: Lithoglyphidae) was first recorded in the Uglich Reservoir in the summer of 2013. By 2015, several new local settlements of the snail had been found in the Uglich and Rybinsk reservoirs, indicating its successful naturalization in the Upper Volga basin. Parasitological studies of L. naticoides from these habitats reveal the parthenitae of three trematode species.
