A new valvatiform hydrobiid, Islamia mylonas, from the Troodos Mts, Cyprus, is described. The shell characters, radula and soft parts anatomy are studied in detail and illustrated. The differences between the new species and its congeners from the Balkan Peninsula and the Mediterranean Basin are extensively discussed.
