From editor or global species database
Taxonomy Mabille (1889) stated that all three species of this genus live in brakishwater. However, Brandt (1974) notes that it is completely uncharacteristic for viviparid snails of Thailand, and no species similar to Mabille's description was found in Thailand since the original description of this genus.
