Ecology: FT, ST

Distribution: PA

Habitat: ES, SL

Comments: Occurrences of this species in inland saline water bodies of Europe are all probably the result of deliberate introduction as a food source. The Caspian Sea was stocked with the species during 1939–41, but it was misidentified and treated as Alitta succinea for two decades ( Hartman 1960). It also occurs in the Aral Sea ( Andreev et al. 1992) and Black Sea ( Manoleli 1980).
