List of non-marine molluscs of Vietnam

The non-marine molluscs of Vietnam are a part of the molluscan fauna of Vietnam (wildlife of Vietnam).

A number of species of non-marine mollusks are found in the wild in Vietnam.

There are good reasons to suppose that Vietnam, with a surface of 332,000 km2, a large variety of habitats, and many different limestone 'islands' that differ from each other in faunal composition,[1] will have a rich diversity of terrestrial molluscs.

[2] Numerous non-marine mollusc species, including more than 850 species of land gastropods,[3] have been described from the country but many others still await discovery and description.

[2] Freshwater gastropods in Vietnam include: Neritidae Ampullariidae Viviparidae Pachychilidae Paludomidae Potamididae (brackish water snails) Thiaridae Assimineidae Bithyniidae Pomatiopsidae Stenothyridae Iravadiidae (marine/brackish) Buccinidae Lymnaeidae Planorbidae Land gastropods in Vietnam include: Cyclophoridae Diplommatinidae Pupinidae Helicinidae Hydrocenidae Clausiliidae Helicarionidae Streptaxidae - 39 species of Streptaxidae are known from Vietnam[22] Plectopylidae - 16 species are known from Vietnam[25] Philomycidae Ariophantidae Agriolimacidae Camaenidae Freshwater bivalves in Vietnam include: Lists of molluscs of surrounding countries: This article incorporates CC-BY-3.0 text from the reference[2]
