“…Despite several earlier investigations in Greece, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Montenegro and Serbia, it has not been found so far in these countries (e.g. Marinković-Gospodnetić, 1966, 1970, 1971, 1975, 1978, 1980Kučinić et al, 2012Kučinić et al, , 2015Malicky, 2005;Stanić-Koštroman, 2009;Živič et al, 2006). It is highly probable that the species is present elsewhere in southeastern Europe, but with a limited distribution, reflecting the preferred habitats of this species in this part of Europe.…”

We collected adult caddisfly specimens with entomological nets and ultraviolet light traps monthly from May to November 2012 in Brezne Lake situated in Dragash Municipality. During this investigation we found the Leptocerid species Triaenodes bicolor for the first time in Kosovo; it is also the first record for Ecoregion 6, Hellenic Western Balkans. Additionally, this is the first record of the genus Triaenodes from Kosovo. In total seven males and three females of this species were found. Triaenodes bicolor is present all over the European continent but has been rarely sampled in southeastern Europe. Other taxa sympatric with Triaenodes bicolor in the investigated locality are: Hydropsyche instabilis, Hydropsyche spp., Plectrocnemia conspersa, Plectrocnemia spp., Micropterna nycterobia, Micropterna sequax, Limnephilus vittatus, Limnephilus auricula and Thremma anomalum. Odrasli oblici tulara su sakupljeni entomološkom mrežom i ultraljubičastom svjetlosnom klopkom od svibnja do studenog 2012. godine na jezeru Brezna u Općini Dragaš. Tijekom ovog istraživanja, vrsta iz porodice Leptoceridae Triaenodes bicolor nađena je po prvi puta na Kosovu i u Ekoregiji 6 (helenski zapadni Balkan). Istovremeno, ovo je prvi nalaz roda Triaenodes s Kosova. Ukupno je nađeno sedam mužjaka i tri ženke ove vrste. Vrsta Triaenodes bicolor rasprostranjena je na cijelom europskom kontinentu, ali je rijetko zabilježena u jugoistočnoj Europi. Ostale simpatrične vrste uz vrstu Triaenodes bicolor na istraživanom lokalitetu su: Hydropsyche instabilis, Hydropsyche spp., Plectrocnemia conspersa, Plectrocnemia spp., Micropterna nycterobia, Micropterna sequax, Limnephilus vittatus, Limnephilus auricula i Thremma anomalum.

“…However data for Montenegro and Serbia are not backed by any literature records dealing with the caddisflies of these two countries. Brackish habitats of Croatia are recorded as being inhabited by T. ochreellus lefkas (Kučinić et al, 2015).…”

“…There are 203 Orthotrichia species currently known globally, with species from all biogeographic regions except the Antarctic (Morse 2009). However, only one species from the genus Orthotrichia has been recorded in Croatia so far, Orthotrichia angustella McLachlan, 1865 (Kučinić et al, 2012). Most likely, the common and widespread Orthotrichia costalis (Curtis, 1834) is also present in Croatia, bue micro-caddisflies are generally rarely collected (Waringer et al, 2011), and typical habitats of these species have not been properly investigated in Croatia.…”

“…The first extensive systematic research of Trichoptera in Croatia based on the collection of adults was carried out at the end of the 20 th century in the Plitvice Lakes area (Kučinić 2002;Kučinić et al, 2015). Considerable progress has been made in the study of the caddisfly fauna and its ecology in Croatia in the last 15 years (e.g.…”

However, the eastern part of continental Croatia with various wetland habitats is still insufficiently explored, since most studies were focused on the ecology and faunistics of caddisflies in the karstic area (e.g.…”

We present the description of two new subspecies of the Rhyacophila fasciata Group: Rhyacophila fasciata delici Kučinić & Valladolid (ssp. nov.), broadly distributed in Croatia and present also in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and R. fasciata viteceki Valladolid & Kučinić (ssp. nov.), found in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Our study of the morphology of adults, as well as our analysis of the barcode region of the mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase I (mtCOI) gene and geographical distribution confirm the differences of the two new subspecies with the nominal species R. f. fasciata, also found in both countries.
