Omphiscola glabra, commonly known as the pond mud snail,[3] is a species of small to medium-size, air-breathing, freshwater snail, an aquatic pulmonate gastropod mollusk in the family Lymnaeidae.

[6] The shell is strongly cylindrical, horny, often with a brownish or blackish surface, the apex is blunt, 7–8 moderately convex whorls, with last whorl being twice as high as the narrow aperture, and with aperture often with white lip.

[6][clarification needed] In Central France, the populations of Omphiscola glabra are currently declining because its habitat is threatened by modern agricultural practices.

In France, Omphiscola glabra is naturally infected with Fasciola hepatica,[11] Calicophoron daubneyi,[12] and Haplometra cylindracea;[13] in all, seven digenean species parasitize O. glabra in the Brenne Regional Natural Park, central France.

[14] Moreover, a report suggests that the species is also susceptible to Fascioloides magna infection.
