Diagnosis.
Shell medium to large, tumid. All whorls smooth. Neck finely costate. Basal and peripheral crests weak. Lamellae superior and spiralis mostly overlap. Lunella dorsal-dorsolateral. Subclaustralis fused to lunella as its almost straight continuation. Plica principalis often connected to the superior. Weak sulcalis usually present.

Distribution.
This taxon is distributed sporadically along the southern Montenegrin coast between Budva and Zaljevo (Fig. 13).
Remarks.
Earlier
Montenegrina cattaroensis umbilicata
used to be classified as a distinct species, but its geographical vicinity and very similar shell characters indicate close relationship with
Montenegrina cattaroensis
.
Wohlberedt (1909)
mentions a more southern occurrence, in the
Muzura
Mts near Ulcinj. This record, however, corresponds to
Montenegrina subcristata
(leg. Winneguth, 1904, NHMW 41258/2).
