ABSTRACT
Biometrical analysis including six metric and one non-metric shell characters of Vestia elata (Rossm.) from the Świętokrzyskie Mts, Bieszczady Mts and S Carpathians revealed a clear separation of the isolated population from the Świętokrzyskie Mts. Snails of this population have smaller and stouter shells than those from the Carpathian populations. Values of most studied parameters increase southwards. The least variable character of a high heritability is the width of embryonic whorls.
