About Leptachatina striatula
Bishop Museum Hawaii Biological Survey freshwater and terrestrial mollusk checklist explicitly lists Kauai in the island distribution.
MolluscaBase/WoRMS AphiaID 1480155 treats Leptachatina striatula as an accepted terrestrial species; an HBS infraspecific source name, where present, is collapsed to species rank.
WoRMS flags the taxon as terrestrial (isTerrestrial=1), or the MNHN/HBS land-snail catalogues supply the terrestrial context; the record is within the land-mollusk census branch.
Explicit Kauai island occurrence and terrestrial taxonomy are verified, but the inspected locality evidence does not establish a living modern population; classified historical, not current.
