About Neritona granosa

Explicit Kauai locality is independently supported: the 2008 Wainiha sheet and numerous other 2008 Kauai watershed sheets list Neritina granosa; the 2021 review confirms the modern accepted combination and native Hawaiian ecology.

MolluscaBase/WoRMS AphiaID 1329667 was inspected: source name Neritona granosa; status accepted; accepted name Neritona granosa.

The 2021 peer-reviewed review identifies the species as anadromous in clear steep-gradient streams, with marine larval development; WoRMS flags the accepted species freshwater.

Explicit island-level survey records, accepted taxonomy, and in-scope freshwater/estuarine ecology verify historical Kauai occurrence; no qualifying post-cutoff authoritative record was inspected.
