Distribution in Sabah.
Island: [West] Pulau Tiga, Pulau Gaya, Pulau Rusukan Besar, Pulau Kuraman, Pulau Dinawan, Pulau Sapangar, Pulau Labuan; [East] Pulau Bod Gaya, Pulau Bohey Dulang, Pulau Sebangkat, Pulau Selakan, Pulau Tetagan. Mainland: West Coast Division, Interior Division, Sandakan Division and Tawau Division.
Remarks.
Widespread in Sabah. The difference between Japonia kinabaluensis (E.A. Smith, 1895) and Japonia trilirata (Pfeiffer, 1852) is ambiguous as the shell shape and size of the two species are highly variable and intermediate shell forms have been found. Therefore, we considered J. kinabaluensis and J. trilirata as Japonia trilirata / kinabaluensis species complex.
