The relatively highest abundances were found on submerged wood and rough rock surfaces in runs and riffles. Some root packs and partly submerged grass bunches in riffles were also found to be densely colonised with the species. Much more rarely it was found among bottom gravels in runs and calm pools, where specimens were possibly just shifted by drift.
