Doubtful Lymnaeidae:

Freshwater species excluded from the list:
- Theodoxus fluviatilis (Linnaeus, 1758) - It was listed by Glöer & Pešić (2012) from Iran.[1] But Sands et al. (2012) found no evidence for the occurrence of this species.[3]
- Bithynia badiella (Küster, 1852)[1]
- Bithynia troschelii (Pasch, 1842)[1]
- Acroloxus lacustris (Linnaeus, 1758) - It was recorded by Lothar Forcart in 1935.[6] But an analysis of the two specimens from Forcart's collection (NMB 11516a) identified as Acroloxus lacustris from Mazandaran Province shows that these specimens belong to Acroloxus pseudolacustris.[1]
