Abstract
During field trips in 2020 and 2022, three terrestrial gastropods not previously reported from Bosnia and Herzegovina were found. The records of Lauria sempronii (Charpentier, 1837), Limacus flavus (Linnaeus, 1758) and Trochoidea pyramidata (Draparnaud, 1805) are described. Lauria sempronii is the first member of the family Lauriidae reported from Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Key words
