  Bulinus mutandensis is a species of freshwater gastropod in the Planorbidae family. It is endemic to Uganda. Its natural habitat is freshwater lakes.
  
  The taxonomy of Bulinus mutandensis places it within the broader classification of Gastropoda, a large and diverse class of mollusks that includes snails and slugs. The family Planorbidae, to which this species belongs, is characterized by its unique coiled shell, which resembles a ram's horn.
  
  As an endemic species, Bulinus mutandensis plays an important role in the ecology of Uganda's freshwater ecosystems. Its presence and distribution within these lakes contribute to the overall biodiversity and ecological balance of the region. Understanding the natural history, habitat requirements, and population dynamics of this species is crucial for effective conservation efforts and the preservation of Uganda's freshwater biodiversity.
  
  Further research and scientific studies may focus on the biology, behavior, and reproductive patterns of Bulinus mutandensis to gain a more comprehensive understanding of its ecological role and conservation status. This information would enhance our knowledge of this species and aid in the development of conservation strategies to protect its populations and their habitats.
