Attometta

Attometta is a genus of small, tropical, freshwater snails with an operculum, aquatic gastropod mollusks in the family Pomatiopsidae.

The species in the genus Attometta are found in Southeast Asia, specifically in Indonesia and Malaysia. They inhabit freshwater environments, such as streams and rivers, and are often associated with aquatic plants.

Attometta snails are relatively small, with sizes ranging from 2 to 5 millimeters in diameter. They have a distinctively slender body shape and a small operculum that helps to protect the aperture. The operculum is usually brown or reddish-brown in color, while the rest of the shell is typically transparent or yellowish.

Attometta snails are part of the larger family Pomatiopsidae, which is known for its diverse and widespread distribution in the phylum Mollusca. Other genera within this family include Lae pseudoallo Lae etc.

Attometta species have not been extensively studied, and there is limited information available about their specific biology and ecology. However, they are likely to be seed predators, feeding on the seeds of aquatic plants.

While the genus Attometta is not currently well-represented in scientific literature, ongoing research in the field of freshwater snail taxonomy is helping to shed more light on the diversity and distribution of species within this group.
