), but we found it only in one location. This species was common in the lower reaches of Dorothea ghut, covering large boulders with as many as thirty per square metre. It occurred in both the primary channel and in pools cut off from the main flow. These pools often had high amounts of decomposing vegetation. Between the main channel and peripheral cut off pools, we found this snail in water with pH ranges from 6.5 to 8.5.
