ABSTRACT
So far in Poland, the North American snail Menetus dilatatus (Gould) has been recorded from the Konin lakes only and, quite recently, from one site in the middle Odra River. One individual of this species was found in each of two sites in the near-shore zone of Lake Kamionkowskie (an isolated oxbow lake) in Skaryszewski Park, Warsaw in June 2014. Possible routes of its expansion and its potential presence in other waters are discussed.
