Plectostoma kitteli (Maassen, 2002)

There are large areas in the Northern and Western provinces of Sumatra that are covered by limestone hills (Verstappen and Genootschap 1973). Despite intensive malacological surveys in some of these areas (van Benthem Jutting 1959), no Plectostoma species was found until 1997. To date, Plectostoma kitteli is the only Plectostoma species found in Sumatra (Maassen 2002).
