It has been stated that further research is necessary whether Albinaria ariadne is an independent species. Based on shell characters it seems closely related to Albinaria idaea , except that Albinaria ariadne has a weak basalis. [4]

Distribution

This species occurs in Greece. It is only known from a local occurrence near Orthés (S of Perama) in northern central Crete. [4] [5]
