Range & habitat
Fossils of †Valvata relicta have been recorded from the ancient Lake Ohrid basin in the Balkans, where a number of endemic mollusks were described in the early 20th century. The species was originally described by J. Poliński in 1929. Fossil and subfossil records indicate its presence in Pleistocene lacustrine sediments of the Lake Ohrid region.
