Abstract

On the finding of a population of Quickella arenaria (Potiez & Michaud, 1835) (Mollusca, Gastropoda, Succineidae) in Castilla-La Mancha (Spain) After studying many springs in the province of Cuenca (Spain) we report the finding of Quickella arenaria, a little known succinid gastropod in Spain, for the first time in Castilla–La Mancha. We discuss the threats that the population faces in this habitat and propose conservation management strategies.
