The New Zealand mud snail (Potamopyrgus antipodarum) is a species of very small freshwater snail with a gill and an operculum. This aquatic gastropod mollusk is in the family Tateidae.

It is native to New Zealand, where it is found throughout the country.[3] However, it has been introduced to many other countries. It is often considered an invasive species because populations of the snail can reach very high densities.
