Notes for Polycelis (Polycelis) coronata coronata

Kenk R 1973 (citation)- p 6, 'Polycelis coronata coronata inhabits springs and cold creeks in the western parts of
the United States.  Beck (1954: 81) indicates that in Utah the species is confined to habitats of low water
temperature, not exceeding 10 degrees C., a statement which was confirmed by Braithwaite (1962: 21) and which
is valid also for other localities of its geographic range.  The species is, therefore, found generally at
high altitudes.'
