The material is deposited in the collections of the Naturhistori- sches Museum Wien (140 specimens), Slovene Museum of Natural History (130 specimens), and the collection of B. Petrov (117 specimens). According to the criteria of Kratochvil (1981), 195 specimens were adult. In addition the type of M. nivalis malyi (Zemaljski muzej Bosne i Hercegovine, Sarajevo) and one young topotype of this subspecies (Naturhistorisches Museum Wien) were examined. The specimens were assigned to 13 geographic samples (Fig. 1) for analysis of morphometric variations within and among populations. Sample areas were kept as small as possible and selected so as to represent an integral geographic area. In no instance did a sample area cross any previously recognized taxonomic boundary. The total sample size of examined specimens is indicated in parentheses, it is followed by the number of adults. Sample 1 — Tauplitzalm; alt. 1550—1880 m (53/21). Sample 2 — Hohe Tauern; specific localities: Grossglockner, Pfliiglhof, Franz Josefshaus, Innerkrems, Innerfragant; ah. 1700—2360 m (42/18). Sample 3 — Karnische Alps; localities: Obere Bischof-Alm, Volayerbachtal, Nassfeld, Schlanitzen; alt. 706—1573 m (45/13). Sample 4 — JuHan Alps; localities: Mangart, Kanin, Polovnik, Krnsko jezero, Kredarica, Krma, Vrsic, Planica; alt. 440—2450 m (56/36). Sample 5 — Northwest Dinaric Alps; locahties: Sneznik, Cerknisko jezero, Hrvatski Snjeznik, Risnjak; alt. 550—1700 m (32/17).
