[4] Distribution of Neripteron cornucopia include Odisha state and West Bengal in India, Myanmar, Vietnam,[5] Mai Po Marshes Nature reserve in Hong Kong,[6] Singapore[7][8] Jambi province in Indonesia,[9] and Japan.

[8] William Thomas Blanford also reported this species from Irrawaddy River delta from Bago, Myanmar in 1867.

Benson' original text (the type description) in Latin and English reads as follows:[1] Neritina cornucopia.

Testâ solidiusculâ, convolutâ, subsymetricâ, transversèe ovato-acutâ, gibbosâ, pallide virente, punctis minimis nigris, interdum confluentibus, lineis longitudinalibus dispositis ornatâ ; sporâ valdè depressâ ; anfractu pone callum compresso, sub-mediano, minimè obliquo ; peritremate acuto, libero, ovato, pene totam testam circumcludente ; callo magno ingrescente ; aperturâ lunatâ mediocri ; labio recto totâ longitudine denticulato, medio emarginato.

I have met with only two specimens, in the Hugli at Fort William, and in Tolly's Nullah, adhering to piles and bricks.

[6] There is X0 sex-determination system in Neripteron cornucopia: the diploid number of chromosomes (2n) is 27 in males and 28 in females (2n = 26 + XX (or XO)).
