Distribution in India: Madhya Pradesh (Bichhia River at Rewa, dark bluish black to dirty coloured, appearing in Sep. and peaking in Nov.–Dec); Uttar Pradesh (Anarkali Tal, Bahraich district, on dead aquatic plants. Oct.).

Notes: This freshwater “ Acrochaetium ” species from India had been studied in detail over a number of years. Singh et al. (1983) observed for the first time what they called “gemmules”, as perennating bodies in the off-season warmer months. Based on observations for three years, Singh et al. (1983) were of the opinion that A. sarmaii and A. godwardensis were conspecific with A. indica , since there were no significant differences in vegetative morphology, anatomy or monsoporangial shape and size.
