clade Hypsogastropoda Mexipyrgus carranzae is a species of very small freshwater snail,[2] an aquatic gastropod mollusk in the family Cochliopidae.

[2][3] This species is endemic to Cuatro Ciénegas valley, in Chihuahuan Desert, Mexico.

[4] Water lily Nymphaea ampla is the most common aquatic macrophyte in abundance in its habitats.

[4] According to the isotope analysis by Chaves-Campos et al. (2012)[4] it is probable that Mexipyrgus churinceanus feed on water lily Nymphaea ampla organic matter metabolized by sediment bacteria.

[4] Predators of Mexithauma quadripaludium include the specialized snail-eating (molluscivorous) cichlid fish Herichthys minckleyi.
