Neritina asperulata is a species of a marine and freshwater snail, an aquatic gastropod mollusk in the family Neritidae, the nerites.[3]

Distribution

This species occurs in the Philippines and on the Solomon Islands.[4]

Juvenile snails of Neritina asperulata attach to a shell of another neritid snail Neritina pulligera and migrate like this for several kilometers.[4]
