Habitat and Ecology [top]
Habitat and Ecology: Like other species of this genus, D. merguensisi is mainly found in fast-flowing to torrential mountain streams and cascades. During the day it takes shelter under rocks and in crevices and at night it ventures out to forage. This genus is sometimes found outside water but in very moist areas adjacent to water bodies, such as under rocks in the splash zone of the stream bank or in crevices in vertical walls behind waterfalls and cascades.
