The land snail fauna of Pakistan is poorly known. During surveys conducted in the summer months of 1990–1992 the Pupilloidea was the most diverse and commonly encountered group of land snails. The Chondrinidae, Cochlicopidae, Orculidae, and Pyramidulidae are reviewed herein. Sphyradium doliolum (Bruguière, 1792) is recorded from Pakistan for the first time. New Pakistan records for Granopupa lapidaria (Hutton, 1849), Cochlicopa cf. lubrica (O. F. Müller, 1774), and Pyramidula humilis (Benson, 1838) are provided. Pyramidula cf. salimalii is reported from localities other than the type locality for the first time. An unidentifiable species of Pyramidula is also reported.
