Měkky i Hon ovy h rky u P íbora (Slezsko, eská republika) Molluscs of the Hon ova H rka hill near P íbor (Silesia, Czech Republic)Keywords: rocks of the teschenite association , Czech Republic , Mollusca , Ena montana , Vertigo pygmaea , Daudebardia rufa , Pupilla muscorum Abstract: Hon ova H rka hill in Skotnice near P íbor is important mineralogical locality. It is formed by rocks of the te-schenite association. It was opened as relatively small picrite quarry with further enlargement due to gravel mi-ning up to present status. Quarries in general possess wide range of habitats. Moreover, teschenite rock association with its high calcium content is favourable environment for land snails. Altogether, 27 land snail species were found in Hon ova H rka hill, of which four are concerned as near threatened (Ena montana, Vertigo pygmaea, Daudebardia rufa and Pupilla muscorum). This site thus has a potential as local refugium for endangered species and deserves our attention.
