abstract = "Balkansko poluostrvo predstavlja centar evropskog biodiverziteta u pogledu faune slatkovodnih Gastropoda, a značajan broj taksona su stenovalenti, uske rasprostranjenosti.
U radu je dat pregled distribucije slatkovodne faune puževa u izvorima i malim planinskim potocima Zapadnog Balkana, kao i glavne pretnje koje utiču na opadanje biodiverziteta ove važne grupe slatkovodnih organizama. Najznačajnije pretnje za biodiverzitet slatkovodnih puževa u malim vodotocima i izvorima su degradacija staništa (mini hidroelektrane, hidrotehnički radovi na zaštiti od poplava, nekontrolisana seča šuma) i kaptiranje izvora. Poznavanje diverziteta i brojnosti Balkanskih slatkovodnih puževa, naglašava značaj sprovođenja mera zaštite i očuvanja biodiverziteta ovog dela Evrope., The Balkan Peninsula is a center of Europe’s biodiversity in respect to freshwater gastropods and many of recorded taxa are stenobionts of narrow distribution. This manuscript presents review of the freshwater gastropod fauna distribution in springs and small mountain streams of the Western Balkan and points to the main threats that influence the decline of diversity of this important group of aquatic organisms. The most significant threats to the diversity of freshwater gastropods in small streams and springs are habitat degradation (physical destruction of habitats due to mini hydropower plants construction, hydro-technical works related to flood protection, faulty forest management excavation of material), and water abstraction. Knowledge of a considerable number of Balkan gastropod species, underlines the importance for the long-term conservation of biodiversity in this part of Europe.",
