Freshwater gastropods
edit27 freshwater gastropod species (37% of freshwater gastropod species in Iran) are endemic to Iran.[1]
Species of freshwater gastropods of Iran include:
- Neritina mesopotamica Martens 1879[1] - the first report in Iran was in 2001[2]
- Neritina cinctellus (Martens, 1874)[1]

- Radix bactriana (Annandale & Prashad, 1919)[1]
- Radix iranica (Annandale & Prashad, 1919)[1]

- Galba truncatula (Müller, 1774)[2][1]
- Galba schirazensis Küster, 1862[1]

- Lymnaea stagnalis (Linnaeus, 1774)[2][1]
Doubtful Lymnaeidae:
- Radix lagotis (Schrank, 1803) - It was recorded from Iran by Martens (1874) and by Biggs (1937), but this species most probably does not occur in Iran.[1]

- Gyraulus convexiusculus (Hutton, 1849)[1]
- Gyraulus laevis (Alder, 1838)[1]

- Segmentina calatha (Benson, 1850)[1]
- Ferrissia isseli (Bourguignat, 1866)[1]
- Physella acuta (Draparnaud, 1805)[2][1]
Freshwater species excluded from the list:
- Theodoxus fluviatilis (Linnaeus, 1758) - It was listed by Glöer & Pešić (2012) from Iran.[1] But Sands et al. (2012) found no evidence for the occurrence of this species.[3]
- Bithynia badiella (Küster, 1852)[1]
- Bithynia troschelii (Pasch, 1842)[1]
- Acroloxus lacustris (Linnaeus, 1758) - It was recorded by Lothar Forcart in 1935.[6] But an analysis of the two specimens from Forcart’s collection (NMB 11516a) identified as Acroloxus lacustris from Mazandaran Province shows that these specimens belong to Acroloxus pseudolacustris.[1]
