Abstract

Accurate species identification is foundational to the management of introduced species. However, the current knowledge of the introduced hygrophilid snails in Japan, which is a hotspot of freshwater mollusks, is limited. We report the first record of Planorbella duryi (Wetherby, 1879) in Japan collected on two of the Bonin Islands, a World Heritage site.
