Distribution of Montenegrina soosi and Montenegrina sporadica . Montenegrina soosi (circle); Montenegrina sporadica sporadica (diamond); Montenegrina sporadica tropojana ssp. n. (empty circle with dot). Remarks. As its shell does not reveal a clear affiliation to any other taxa, Montenegrina soosi is tentatively regarded as a distinct species. In the Lapave Gorge it occurs syntopically with the nominotypical form of Montenegrina skipetarica .
