description: <i>Radix</i> (<i>Radix</i>) <i>parapsilia</i> Vinarski et Glöer, 2009 Distribution. The species is recently found at a single locality and was declared as formally new species for the Transcarpathian malacofauna (Anistratenko et al., 2018: shell illustrated in fig. 3, J, K). At the same time some records of <i>R. peregra</i> (O. F. Müller, 1774) in there as well as in adjacent Ivano-Frankivsk Region (Stadnichenko, 2004) might be treated as <i>R. parapsilia</i>. Currently only three localities of this species are discovered in the region: 16, 53 and 56 (fig. 1, table 1). Distribution of <i>R. parapsilia</i> in Ukraine is also not clearly studied and needs more extensive field samplings. General distribution — Northern Eurasia (Vinarski, Kantor, 2016). R e m a r k s. In the Transcarpathia the species is found in shallow zone of rivers, streams and canals from 120 up to 540 m a. s. l. (table 2). Long time this species had been known in the Russian literature as <i>Lymnaea</i> (<i>Radix</i>) <i>psilia</i> (Bourguignat, 1862). However, Vinarski and Glöer (2009) showed that the syntypes of <i>L. psilia</i> represent juvenile specimens of <i>L. stagnalis</i> and thus a substitute name was created to replace <i>L. psilia</i> sensu Kruglov, 2005 non Bourguignat, 1862. The specimens of <i>R. parapsilia</i> differ from the typical <i>R. auricularia</i> by its higher spire and less inflated body whorl (Anistratenko et al., 2018: compare fig. 3, I and fig. 3, J, K).
