Table 1. List of Troglocaris s. str. and Troglocaris bosnica samples with data on Proteus sp. presence.

(Continued)

SN, sample number (data in parentheses and data for samples 80–92 after Fabjan 2001); Ph, phylogenetic group (from Zakšek et al. 2009): W, West Slovenia; S, Soča, E, East Slovenia; A, Adriatic; I, Istra; B, T. bosnica (marked with “*”). The samples not analysed molecularly were attributed to the group according to geography; where the attribution is uncertain, dot “ • ” is added; P, presence or supposed absence (+/–) of Proteus sp.; M, number of measured males (adults/juveniles); F, number of measured females (adults/juveniles); _Nrcl, number of specimens for the analysis of a relative rostral length; _rclAVG, sample average of the relative rostral lengths; G/O, group determined by _rclAVG (see Figure 4), with number of specimens in outgroup, where S and L denote short and long rostrum respectively with border of the interval set at S <43% ≤ L; “+”, “–” and “#” designate Proteus sp. presence, presumable absence and uncertain presence of Proteus sp., respectively. In toponyms, “grotta”, “jama”, “pećina”, “špilja” means “cave”. X, damaged at the tip.

^a,b Proteus was reportedly observed in Vodna jama v Lozi which is a part of the Markov spodmol cave system, but there are no exact data.

^c Proteus was found in the near proximity, but the stream is polluted now; some field work was done there in recent years (e.g. by Zakšek in 2005, and by Jugovic in 2008), but neither Troglocaris and/or Proteus was found there.

^d Samples excluded from statistical analysis.
