| Description | A topsoil-dwelling Eastern Alpine terrestrial snail Aegopinella ressmanni (Westerlund, 1883) was found for the first time in the Czech Republic at nine sites in E Bohemia. Abundant populations of the species occurred in wet habitats of the Tichá Orlice River valley between the village of Hnátnice and the town of Brandýs nad Orlicí. These Czech populations were found 250 km far from the known northernmost sites in Germany and Austria. |
