Abstract


An analytical review of literature sources is presented, it contains information about the freshwater malacofauna of the basin of the Siverskyi Donets River, the right, largest tributary of the Don River, south of the East European Plain. A scheme of conditional subdivision of hydromalacological studies into three historical periods is proposed. The characteristics of the contribution of each of the researchers to the study of the hydromalacological fauna of the region is given. A list of all species of freshwater mollusks found in the region over a 190-year period of research (1832–2022) is provided. The identification of the names of mollusks recorded in the historical literature for the mollusks of the Siverskyi Donets River Basin is given. The ways and methods of the current research of the hydromalacological fauna of the region are characterized.
The entire history of the Siverskyi Donets River Basin freshwater mollusks study can be conventionally divided into three periods. During the first period (the1830s–1920s), information about the presence of 42 species of gastropods and 14 species of bivalve mollusks in the Siverskyi Donets River Basin was published for the first time. One species new to science was described. In the second period (the1920s–1950s), the regional malacofauna was replenished with five new species, and the total list had already reached 61 species. Between the 1950s and 1970s was the time of a big break in the history of the study of the regional malacofauna. The third period spans from the 1970s to the present time. This is the period of study of the composition and structure of the malacocenoses in the middle and upper part of the basin.
