Remarks

This species has previously been reported from the Prefectures of Okayama, Fukuoka, Gunma ( Okubo 1990, 2004) and Ishikawa ( Smith and Kamiya 2007). It is commonly found in rice fields and the watercourses associated with them (e.g. irrigation ditches and ponds) ( Okubo 1990, 2004). Smith and Kamiya (2007) reported this species from a man-made pond in Kanazawa, Ishikawa Prefecture, living in the littoral zone on a muddy substrate. Okubo (2004; citing Janz et al. 2001) reported this species living at a depth of 20 m in Lake Biwa. This survey collected F. japonica from depths ranging from the littoral zone to 22 m. Localities 35, 44, 66, 70, 78, 81, 87, 88, 90 and 94 in Figure 1 View Figure 1 .
