I found it near Petrota village under stones. As I know its type locality is Maroneia cave and species was described by Riedel in 1985. Can anyone tell me where I can find a PDF of this paper?
Dilian,
I don't have the answer to this, but I am guessing that the type specimens will be in Riedel's collections in Warsaw (the actual collections have been moved to repository outside the city.) Try contacting Beata Pokryszko at Wroclaw, who has used the collections to deal with Caucasian material. I am not sure of the etiquette of posting email addresses online, but if you cannot find her through University of Wroclaw webpage, email me through researchgate. She may well have a copy of the original Riedel 1985 paper in Malak. Abh. Dresden, 10: 139-147. I am sure this will give the details. I think Wroclaw has a complete run of this journal.
I will be in London on Feb 3, and if I have time, I will check the holdings there.
My guess is that it was collected by Riedel himself, since he did much work on cave faunas in Greece.
hello Dylian Yes Adolf collected this species. I have this paper and I collected this species near the type locality alive. I have also nice pictures.regards Zoli.
Very interesting finding!! About 100 km from the type locality whre we found our small ! new species (Balcanodiscus danyii) a really nice HOT SPOT for this genus! It is surely B. cerberus????
Dear Robert and Zoltan,
Thank you very much for your help, and the quick answers!
Zoli, it is not so important for me to have a hard copy - it will cost much more that a scanned one (or phographed by digital camera).
Again: many thanks for both of you!
Wish youu all the best from Bulgaria!!!
Dilian
Dylian!
I look after this species and I think I also collected this CERBERUS alive! Must I send you the hard copy or I already sent U? :-) Zoli
