The marine molluscs of Slovenia are a part of the molluscan fauna of Slovenia (wildlife of Slovenia). A number of species of marine molluscs are found in the wild in Slovenia.
Lipej et al. reported 70 species of opisthobranchs from Slovenia in 2012. Zenetos et al. reported 74 species of opisthobranchs from Slovenia in 2016.Zenetos, A., Mačić, V., Jaklin, A., Lipej, L., Poursanidis, D., Cattaneo-Vietti, R., Beqiraj, S., Betti, F., Poloniato, D., Kashta, L., Katsanevakis, S. and Crocetta, F.
