N: 1
Lg.:
(1196)* F: 0, 60-0,67; M: 0,55-0,62.
* : excluding caudal rami.
Rem.: Lenga Pit (Mljet Island) is about 100 m from the shoreline, there is a small 9 m deep lake at the end of the cave (Salinity in the water column below depths of 3 m is between 21.00 and 39.00, temperature approximately 15.5°C.
For Krsinic (2015, p.5) the species with male P5 is typical of species group IV (see Bradford-Grieve, 1999).
