Aestivator

It was a strictly aquatic animal, possibly an aestivator during its younger stages.

This complements the large increase in Gnathorhiza, a known aestivator since Wichita-Albany time (Berman, 1976).

Biomphalaria sudanica is associated with the margins of lakes and papyrus swamps and was classified as a poor aestivator by Brown (1975, 1980).
