ABSTRACT
The author recorded the occurrence of Helix lutescens Rossmässler, 1837 on five localities within the Holy Cross Mountains National Park and its protective zone, and on three localities in the city of Kielce. The presence of H. lutescens on the eight localities does not permit to establish its real origin, though the author suggests that in those particular habitats the species may be a postglacial or Late Holocene relict.
