). Nevertheless, I have to note their conchological distinctness without intermediates, and that both species were found in the same locality only as empty shells washed together within the recent thanatocoenoses of the spring zone. We have no idea about the underground aquifer range and about its mutually separated cave branches. It is very common in the morphology of many spring caves, that the large isolated, hydrologically active cave passages converge their flow just upstream of the spring outlet. Thus we cannot exclude the presence of two separated species or populations existing within one cave system without being sympatric. The recent thanatocoenoses do not represent their true habitat. Both species are very well differentiated by their shell shape and size (
