Vodní měkkýši přírodní rezervace Maštale (východní Čechy)
Aquatic molluscs of the Maštale Nature Reserve (East Bohemia)
Luboš Beran
The Maštale Nature Reserve (Eastern Bohemia, Czech Republic)
represents a system of rocky sandstone valleys with springs,
ponds and several streams. Aquatic molluscs of this area have
never been studied, which became a reason for the first
inventory conducted in 2019 and 2020. Altogether 19 species were
found at 39 sites, from which Radix labiata, Gyraulus
albus, Ancylus fluviatilis and Pisidium
casertanum belonged among the most often recorded species
while Bythinella austriaca, Acroloxus lacustre,
Lymnaea stagnalis, Anodonta anatina, Pisidium
milium and P. personatum were found at only one or
two sites. Majority of recorded molluscs belonged to common and
widespread species; only gastropod Bythinella austriaca
and pea mussels Pisidium milium and P. obtusale
are listed in the Red List of the Czech Republic in the category
Near Threatened. The occurrence of hydrobiid B. austriaca
in the area where sandstone dominated is noteworthy. Two
non-native species Physa acuta and Ferrissia
californica were found.Keywords: Mollusca, faunistics, Maštale Nature Reserve
