Ecological and historical determinants of Western Carpathian populations of Pupilla alpicola (Charpentier, 1837) in relation to its present range and conservation

Original language description

The minute snail Pupilla alpicola (Stylommatophora: Pupillidae) is known as a threatened glacial relict restricted to treeless calcareous fens with Holocene continuity, mainly in the Alpine and Carpathian regions. We summarize all available data on the distribution of P. alpicola and analyse its ecological requirements in the Western Carpathians both at a larger, regional scale (162 sites) and at a smaller, within-site scale (10 sites). Viable populations of Pupilla alpicola occurred in 31 sites out ofthe 162 fens studied. Water conductivity, Ellenberg?s indicator values for soil reaction, light and nutrients were the main ecological variables that explained these occurrences. The species preferred sites with extremely high calcium carbonate precipitation, low nutrients and sparse herb vegetation cover.
