    AnnotationBased on a malacozoological investigation in 2003 and 2004, altogether 64 species (60 species of Gastropoda – 1 species of freshwater snail, 59 species of terrestrial snails; 4 species of Bivalvia) were recorded at 63 selected localities in the area of the National Park Bavarian Forest in Germany. The terrestrial molluscan fauna was dominated by woodland communities. Records of the Alpine elements Macrogastra badia and Petasina edentula are of prime importance. Further, the Boreo-Alpine species Discus ruderatus, Vertigo substriata, Vertigo alpestris, Clausilia cruciata and the relic Perpolita petronella, classified as typical mountain elements in the central-European region, were recorded at numerous localities at elevations from 670 – 1150 m. A comparative study based on recent and historical data between the molluscan communities of the Bavarian Forest and Bohemian Forest National Parks revealed some differences in the occurrence and/or absence of some species, with a ratio of 68 (German) to 74 (Czech).
