In this paper, nonlocal residual symmetry of a generalized (2+1)-dimensional Korteweg–de Vries equation is derived with the aid of truncated Painleve expansion. Three kinds of non-auto and auto Backlund transformations are established. The nonlocal symmetry is localized to a Lie point symmetry of a prolonged system by introducing auxiliary dependent variables. The linear superposed multiple residual symmetries are presented, which give rise to the n th Backlund transformation. The consistent Riccati expansion method is employed to derive a Backlund transformation. Furthermore, the soliton solutions, fusion-type N -solitary wave solutions and soliton–cnoidal wave solutions are gained through Backlund transformations.
