Sažetak
Field surveys of Kornati National Park (northern Dalmatia, Croatia) revealed the presence of 39 terrestrial snail species, excluding slugs. Prominent finds included Agathylla lamellosa (J. A. Wagner, 1829), for which this is the second find within the recently discovered northern part of its disjunctive range, Delima vidovichii robusta (Küster, 1847), for which the find in the Kornati archipelago is its northernmost location, about 50 km outside its previously known range, Lauria sempronii (Charpentier, 1837), which has only five localities in Croatia and Delima albocincta albocincta (L. Pfeiffer, 1841), which is endemic to the broader Kornati region. The literature listed 15 species, of which only Lindholmiola corcyrensis (Rossmässler, 1838) was not confirmed. We believe that this species does not inhabit the Kornati islands, but was instead washed up by the sea. Agriculture, tourism and development within Kornati National Park currently pose no threat to terrestrial snails but efforts should be made to ensure that this state is maintained or improved in the future, primary concern being directed to ensuring that the localities and habitats of rare species are not destroyed.
