Treatment

549. Typhloiulus ausugi Manfredi, 1953 View in CoL

Distribution

IT-ITA (Veneto, Venezia Tridentina, Friuli-Venezia Giulia).

Habitat

Cavernicolous. There are indications that it prefers very wet caves. Its mouthparts are modified like those of Trogloiulus binii (q.v.), Typhloiulus edentulus and T. serbani , probably an adaptation to living in very wet places ( Enghoff 1985b).

Remarks

Strasser (1971) described two subspecies of T. ausugi .
