Montenegrina tomorosi tomorosi Brandt, 1961 View in CoL Fig. 34G
Montenegrina (Montenegrina) janinensis tomorosi Brandt, 1961: 3-4, plate 1, fig. 2.
Montenegrina janinensis tomorosi - Zilch 1981: 129, plate 14, fig. 29. - Nordsieck 2009: 75.
Diagnosis.
Shell small to medium, light corneous. All whorls smooth. Neck weakly inflexed, densely wrinkled-costate. Basal and peripheral crests weak. Peristome ovoid to somewhat angular, with swollen margin. Lamellae superior and spiralis do not overlap. In front view lamella inferior moderately emerged, subcolumellaris not visible. Lunella dorsolateral. Basalis weak, mostly separate from the lunella. Subclaustralis absent to residual, sulcalis present. Anterior plica superior absent or weak, not connected to the lunella complex. Clausilium plate barely visible through the aperture. Distinguishable from Montenegrina janinensis by the non-overlapping lamellae superior and spiralis, as well as the weaker-bent and deeper ending lamella subcolumellaris.
Dimensions
(in mm). Hs: 16.1-17.8 mm, W: 3.6-4.1 mm (penultimate whorl) up to 4.6 mm (at the basis) ( Brandt 1961).

Distribution.
Tomorr Mts in southern Albania. This taxon occurs in the southern chain of the Tomorr Mts, to the north and west of the Kulmak Summit (Fig. 36).
Remarks.
In older collection labels the Tomorr Mts is often given as “Tomoros”. This is not to be confused with the main summit of the Galičica Mts, west of the Ohrid Lake, which is sometimes also mentioned as Tomoros (see Montenegrina dofleini dofleini ).
