Abstract A taxonomic account of a collection of Phallodrilus species inhabiting caves is given. The following three new species are described: P. subterraneus, P. crypticus and P. labouichensis. New material of P. aquaedulcis Hrabe, 1960 from northern Spain and southwestern France is reported. This species was previously known from West Germany. The relationship between Phallodrilus cave species and littoral and deep-sea species is discussed.
