Photos of the male palp and vulva are shown in Fig. 2. Specimens were collected at an altitude over 1600 m a.s.l., which corresponds to re- cords of specimens in the territory of the Eastern Carpathians within northern Romania. At lower altitudes, in the spruce forest zone of the investigated mountain massifs, G. badia was not found. Fig. 2: Gnaphosa badia from Ukraine (the mountain massif Сhornohora, Mt.
