  • Beckianum beckianum gabbianum (Angas, 1879)[2]

Description

Beckianum beckianum is a small snail.

Distribution

Beckianum beckianum is believed to be native to the Caribbean Basin.[3]

The distribution of Beckianum beckianum includes the West Indies and Central America.[4]

Lesser Antilles

  • Saint-Martin – first reported in 2001 [11]
