1774 Helix cartusiana O. F. MÜLLER : 15. Locus typicus: "Gallia", France.

There are not certain anatomical proofs of the presence of this species in Bulgaria yet. Notwithstanding many authors repeatedly reported the species from various regions in the country (see the next species and Map 4 View Map 4 ) the structure of genitalia and the figures are doubtful and corresponds to M. claustralis (see Fig. 2). First HAUSDORF (2000b) distinguish unambiguous the genitalia of M. cartusiana from these of M. claustralis and emphasize repeatedly confusions and confounds of the first species with the second one. According to the selfsame author more of material from Bulgaria belong to M. claustralis , whereas M. cartusiana meet in South Bulgaria.

We assume the availability of this species in Bulgaria only conventional for the time being until finding of certain anatomical evidences.
