Fig. 2L

Planorbis pfeifferi: Krauss 1848: 83 View in CoL , pl. 5, fig. 7. (Type locality: “In Umgani [= Umgeni]-Valley, Natal”) Taxonomic remarks: Based on molecular genetics, Jørgensen et al. (2007 b) suggested pfeifferi View in CoL to be paraphyletic. Since a revision of this taxon based on DNA data is still pending, we identify our specimens tentatively.

Habitat description: We collected the species from irrigation channels watering fields near the Mususa R. south of Butembo. The substrate comprised mainly clay and sapropel.

Collecting site: 1.

IUCN Red List Category: Not Evaluated ( B. pfeifferi ).
