Key Points

  • The first documented occurrence of cantareus apertus in Serbia highlights biodiversity changes in the region.
  • A single individual of cantareus apertus was identified in a plant nursery in Novi Sad, indicating human influence.
  • The report confirms the presence of eight allochthonous helicoideans in Serbia thus far, raising ecological concerns.
  • This finding expands our understanding of snail distribution dynamics in Serbia and emphasizes future monitoring needs.
