Status. Pontocaspian species, endemic to Caspian Sea Basin and Black Sea Basin.

Type locality. "Sinum Astrabadensem" [Caspian Sea near Astrabad (= Gorgan, Iran)].

Distribution. Caspian Sea, western liman coast Black Sea Basin.

Taxonomic notes. The Black Sea populations of H. plicata show a large range of morphological variation with elongated specimens that cannot be distinguished from Caspian H. plicata to severely stunted and irregularly shaped specimens that have been considered as a subspecies ( H. plicata relicta) or as distinct species ( H. dolosmiana ) (e.g., Munasypova-Motyash 2006a). These forms have intermediates indicating that the Black Sea Basin specimens are a single species that should be attributed to H. plicata even though the latter appear to have lived under lower salinities than their Caspian counterparts. Molecular studies are required to elucidate the status of the Black Sea Basin material.

Conservation status. Not assessed. Fresh shells (including paired specimens) have been found at several beaches around the Caspian Sea (Turali, Dagestan, Russia; Şuraabad, Azerbaijan; FW). The species has been reported alive from the Razim lake complex of the Romanian Black Sea coast by Popa et al. (2009).
