Etymology.

Dedicated to Morgan Gueuning, who collected the specimens in Sumatra.

Distribution.

Indonesia: Sumatra.

Biological aspects.

The specimens were collected at altitudes of 840 m to 1,300 m in small to medium (0.5-5 m wide), shallow (7-40 cm deep) and slow to medium fast (velocity 0.2-0.8 m/s) streams in forest or in highly disturbed areas (agriculture, waste). The substrate was predominantly boulder, stones, gravel and sand with few patches of leaf litter of dead wood.
