Habitat and distribution
Species with a strong preference for beds in watercourses, up to the level of the water. It has been collected in alluvial subsurface habitats ( Sendra et al. 2017a). C. (C.) fragilis is a widespread species, in Europe alone it has been quoted from 400 localities (Supplementary file 1). It occurs from the Euro- Mediterranean zone to North America ( Silvestri 1933b; Condé, 1956a, 1973; Bareth & Condé 1958; Condé & Geeraert 1962). In the northern territories, it has been found in the British Isles ( Bagnall 1918b) and in the southern Scandinavian Peninsula ( Silvestri 1912; Börset 1968; Olsen 1996); in continental Europe from France to Poland ( Denis 1930; Wygodzinsky 1941b; Condé 1947h; Paclt 1956, 1961a; Stach 1964), in the Pyrenees ( Condé & Mathieu 1957), in the Iberian Peninsula ( Sendra & Moreno 2004), in the Italian Peninsula ( Ramellini 1995, 2000), in the Anatolian Peninsula (Sendra et al. 2006), and, finally, in N Africa ( Algeria; Condé 1947g) and the Canary Islands ( Sendra & Baez 1986).
