A recent field work carried out by Dilian Georgiev revealed four samples with three hydrobiid species. These species have been misidentified by Clessin (1890), Angelov (1950), and Reischütz (1983). Re-examination of these species provided two Grossuana spp. and one Bythinella sp., all new for science.In addition the samples of syntypes of Bythinella charpentieri of Roth’s collection in The Bavarian State collection of Zoology (ZSM) revealed a new Bythinella sp.
