“…With the two newly described neotroglobionts, the number of cave-dwelling anthroleucosomatids in the Caucasus has increased to 14. The family Anthroleucosomatidae and the tribe Leucogeorgiini Verhoeff, 1930, which includes 15 presumed troglobionts (Antić & Reip 2020;Antić & Turbanov 2022), are by far the richest millipede groups in terms of the number of troglobionts in Caucasian caves. As intensive and extensive biospeleological research is underway across the territory of Georgia, the number of Caucasian troglobionts is expected to increase in the near future.…”
