Recently, four specimens of the bathysciine species Charonites orlovacensis Reitter (2 males and 2 females) were found for the first time after 1913 in the Orlovaca Cave, v. Donje Sinjevo, nr. Pale, Bosnia and Herzegovina. A comparative analysis of these bathysciincs has yielded some detailed taxonomic and morphological evidence on some species of Charonites Apfelbeck. The description of C. orlovacensis is emended. Additionally, some important taxonomic and ecological evidence has been briefly discussed.
