In the early 1930s, Helmut Schaefer started examining owl pellets from the Tatra Mts. region, pioneering this type of research in Slovakia. Moreover, he collected an extensive osteological material consisting mainly of small mammals and birds coming from different time periods and located in the Muráň and Nový caves in the Belianske Tatra Mts. in order to determine their age. Based upon the subfossil osteological and recent data he described a new snow vole subspecies – Chionomys nivalis mirhanreini and also a new shrew subspecies – Sorex araneus novyensis n. ssp. dating back to the Upper Pleistocene.
