The non-marine molluscs of Uganda are the molluscan fauna of Uganda (wildlife of Uganda). Since Uganda is a land-locked country, there are no marine species present. A number of species of freshwater and land molluscs are found in the wild in Uganda.
66 native molluscs of Uganda were listed in 2010 IUCN Red List of Threatened Species.[1]
There are 297 species of land snails in Uganda.[2]

- Africanogyrus coretus (de Blainville, 1826)[3]
