Its habitat is not the deep bottom of a large river, but rather a small river accessible by hand-seining. Aquatic macrophytes were present in some sites and riparian forest was well preserved; all specimens were collected in a shaded sector covered with dense vegetation and large rocks on the bottom (Ref. 124573).
