Further and Further East: Steppe Land Snail, Xerolenta obvia (Gastropoda, Geomitridae), Expands its Range in Ukraine
Based on our long-term observations, collection material and literature data, the process of expanding the range of the steppe snail of Pontic-Balkan origin Xerolenta obvia (Menke, 1828) in Ukraine from the end of the 19th century to the present day is analyzed. Known findings of this species in the...
