History
 First imported to the UK by the BKA in early 1975. Caught on the outskirts of the mining village of Rayfield on the Jos Plateau. Reported to reach 5"+ (12·5 cm) in length.
This collecting site has since been destroyed due to the development of a pumping station being built over the area.
Fred Wright et al visited the original collecting site in June/July 1977 & found them in cool water in an exposed area.
