5.3. Mollusca<br />
5.3.1. Hyriidae<br />
Freshwater mussels were not identied from the Copacabana and MacMasters Beach area. Despite<br />
our best efforts we were unable to conrm the presence of any freshwater bi valves. We expect the<br />
small catchment and intermittent ow rates of feeder creeks are unsuitable for these species.<br />
5.3.2. Planorbidae<br />
Freshwater snails Glyptophysa gibbosa were found in several areas. Only small numbers but even<br />
so their presence does indicate that suitable habitat is available.<br />
