Zospeum bucculentum is a cave-dwelling species of air-breathing land snails (Eupulmonata, Ellobioidea, Carychiinae).
The species was established based on specimens that previously were classified as Z. isselianum or Z. likanum. This species is named after its large aperture (lat.: bucculentus: having a large mouth).[1]
