Abstract

Abstract: Terrestrial mollusks (land snails and slugs) are an important component of the terrestrial ecosystem, yet for most species their distribution is not well known. This study was a comprehensive inventory of terrestrial mollusks in Knox County, Tennessee; an area within the Valley and Ridge physiographic region rich in calcareous soils and bluffs. Knox County supports a total of 151 species, including 70 newly reported to the county and 15 newly reported to Tennessee. Sixteen species non-native to North America were found, mostly in urban/ residential habitats. Limestone/sandstone bluffs were found to have the highest diversity of terrestrial mollusks.

摘要:陆生软体动物(蜗牛和蛞蝓)是陆地生态系统的重要组成部分，但大多数物种的分布尚不清楚。这项研究是对田纳西州诺克斯县陆生软体动物的全面调查;山谷和山脊地理区域内富含钙质土壤和悬崖的区域。诺克斯县共有151个物种，其中包括70个新报告到该县和15个新报告到田纳西州。发现了16种非北美本土物种，主要分布在城市/住宅栖息地。石灰岩/砂岩崖的陆生软体动物多样性最高。
