Introduction

The Balkan countries are explored unequally in terms of Macrolepidoptera, especially for nocturnal species. It is difficult to find new taxa for countries such as Bulgaria and Greece, while Albania still remains perhaps the most poorly investigated one. This is demonstrated here in that such a widespread and common species as cruda ([Denis & Schiffermüller], 1775) is reported as a new for Albania, and some other common species recorded here have been reported only from a single locality in that country. In Montenegro there is very incomplete information on occurrence of autumn and early spring species. We show this by reporting here several common autumn species, which we were surprised to find, had not been previously found in Montenegro. While Durmitor National park, Sea coast and other tourist areas are relatively well explored, there is a lack of data for the other parts of that country. The situation in Bosnia and Herzegovina is similar. The nocturnal Lepidoptera fauna of the Republic of North Macedonia is better explored, but mainly by foreigners and the majority of the data are from only a few localities, while for large areas of the country there is a lack of data. Finding a new species for that country is likely possible among difficult groups and large genera, where examination of genitalia is necessary. Recording new localities of species reported before from a single locality is, however, easy. Almost the same situation pertains in Serbia, where

BALKAN LEPIDOPTERA II in the last six years both of the present authors have published separately or together more than 60 Macrolepidoptera species new for this country.

Material and Methods

Collecting involved two portable light traps with an 8 watt actinic (368 nm) and 8 watt “Blacklight”, both powered by 12 volt 9Ah batteries, as well as a Finnish “tent trap” with a 160 watt MV bulb at the top of the pole and a 20 watt (368 nm) black light over the catching pot below. An additional 20 watt (368nm) lamp was also positioned about 70 from the tent trap. The distance between the Finnish “tent trap” and the light traps, as well as between the light traps themselves was sometime more than 1 km, as they were deployed in different positions and habitats wherever possible. All traps ran throughout the night. All of the reported material was collected by S. Beshkov & A. Nahirnić, so the names of the collectors are not mentioned for each species. Genitalia were fixed on glass slides in Euparal mountant after staining with a 2% Merbromin solution. All genitalia slides were photographed by S. Beshkov with a trinocular Zeiss stereo microscope Stemi 2000-C with axioCameRc 5s camera; solitary everted vesicas were photographed in alcohol before mounting on glass. Genitalia slides prepared in 2021 were photographed by using self-modified transmitted light. and collecting localities were photographed with a Sony DSChX400v digital camera. Scale bar is 1 cm. All trips were self-financed by the authors and undertaken in their own time. Lepidoptera families are arranged according to Aarvik et al. (2017). Sequence and nomenclature of families and follow Fibiger et al. (2011) with subsequent changes incorporated from recent taxonomic revisions. The Geometridae are arranged according to Hausmann & Sihvonen (2019). When the specimen’s number is indicated, this means that they are in the collection of Stoyan Beshkov in the National Museum of Natural History, Sofia (NMNHS). For the majority of the reported species the list of the known localities is given, although some of the old reports for some problematic genera are not reliable enough for inclusion. Faunistic records for some representatives of the genera Chasissa Curtis, 1825 and Perizoma Hübner, 1825 before the last treatment of Müller et al. (2019) are not taken into account here.

Systematics

Limacodidae

Hoyosia cretica (Rebel, 1906) Greece, Amphissa district, NW of Eleonas Village, 691m, N38.559384°, E022.387685°, 15.V.2016, Quercus coccifera, Cupressus, Juniperus on limestone area, 2 males at lamps and light traps (Fig. 1). In this area H. cretica is known from the surroundings of Arachova and Delfi (Dufay, 1982). The nearest localities are in Thesalia, Peloponnesus, Thrace and the European part of (Dardanelles) (de Freina & Witt, 1990).

Nymphalidae

Erebia gorge albanica Rebel, 1917 Albania, Mt. Tomor, Tomor peak (Abaz Aliu peak), 2379m, N40.6361°, E20.1615°, eroded spots in high mountain dry grassy slopes, 15.VII.2018 (Fig. 2: a-f). The collecting locality is illustrated in Beshkov & Nahirnić (2019b). Erebia gorge albanica Rebel is very remarkable and confusion with other taxa is hardly believable. Specimens from Tomor have very small, in some specimens even indistinct, ocelli. Wings in the males are very dark with almost indistinct pattern on both underside and upperside. For comparison we illustrate two of the syntypes (Fig. 2: g-l) from North Albanian (T.L: Gropa e Shtrelit [Maja Stogut, Qafa e Strogut, north of Theth]) (Fig. 2: g-i) (Rebel, 1917a) and AL, Kakinja [Maja e Kakisё], 2310m, 14.VII.1916 (Fig. 2: j-l) (source © Lepidoptera Image Collection, Natural History Museum Vienna, H. Bruckner). We have not seen females from Tomor, therefore will not comment on differences between the populations. According to Warren (1936): “There can never be any difficulty in distinguishing albanica from any other gorge race; indeed, the difficulty is to believe that it belongs to the same species. The specimens illustrated were lent to me by the captor, who stated that Rebel himself had identified them as albanica, but that he found it hard to believe they were a race of gorge. The genitalia leave

no room for doubt, however…”. We also examined the genitalia (Gen. prep. 1./26.IV.2019, S. Beshkov) of a single male specimen (Fig. 3). The specimens discussed and illustrated by Warren (1936) were from an isolated mountain, Mali i Tomorrit in S. Albania and might show different external characters to E. gorge albanica (Curvier et al., 2018). From Tomori E. gorge albanica is reported also by Rebel & Zerny (1931), Micevski et al. (2015), Šašić et al. (2015) and Curvier at al. (2018), but it been illustrated only in monochrome in Warren (1936). Here Erebia gorge albanica is illustrated for the first time in colour. According to Curvier et al. (2018) “collected males and females in five different localities and a direct comparison of the collected specimens from these localities with specimens collected on the summit of Mali i Tomorrit shows important variability within a single locality in the size of the ocelli and the width of the orange band, but there is no obvious difference between populations from the N. Albanian Alps and Mali i Tomorrit in S. Albania”. We would like to mentioned that not only the size of the ocelli but also the completely rounded shape of the hind wings are differentiating characters against neighbouring populations in the Dinaric mountains, e.g. Durmitor, Prenj, but also against E. gorge pirinica Buresch, 1918 from Pirin and Rila (in latter populations with frequency of f. triopes.

Known from Kula e Lumës (Rebel & Zerny, 1931) and from Pepellash (Beshkov et al., 2020b). The report by Drenowski (1930) is for the Republic of North Macedonia, not for Albania. Third report for Albania.

The reports by Rebel (1913) for Oroshi and Fandi and by Rebel & Zerny (1931) from Kruma and Kula e Lumës perhaps concern another species, more likely Ch. supinaria (Urbahn, 1966). Reported also by Misja (1977) from Qarrishtë and by Misja (1990) from Qafa e Bordolecit but correct identification is questionable. In Albania Ch. glaucinaria was previously surely proved only from Tomori, 2379m (Beshkov et al., 2020a). Here it is reported for a second time for Albania. According to Müller et al. (2019) in the Balkan Peninsula Ch. glaucinaria occurs only in southern Bulgaria and Greece. That is why in Müller et al. (2019) all previous reports for Montenegro (e.g. of Tomić et al. (1990) and for North Macedonia are omitted as doubtful. Montenegro, Durmitor Mt., Nadgorje, 1735m, N43.192505°, E019.044193°, 06.VIII.2015 (Fig 5: a-b), Gen. prep. 1./11.I.2021, S.

Scotopteryx bipunctaria ([Denis & Schiffermüller], 1775) Albania, Tirana County, Mali me Gropa Mts, 1405m, N41.3524°, E020.0465°, 17.VII.2018 (Fig. 13: a), gen. prep. 1./23.III.2020, S. Beshkov, male genitalia with everted vesica (Fig. 13: b). Vesica has never been everted and illustrated before. Known in Albania from Bështriq, Ploshtan, Korab and Tomor (Rebel & Zerny, 1931), Mali me Gropa, Lure (Urbahn, 1966), Goricë, Qarrishtë, Vermosh and Butrint (Misja, 1977). The last locality for this species seems likely to be incorrect because is on the sea coast. The report by Rebel & Zerny (1931) for Plav concerns Montenegro.

1.50mm. From Albania (Mali me Gropa) Perizoma obsoletata is reported by Urbahn (1966) as Cidaria obsoletaria Herrich-Schäffer, 1838. Very possibly this report concerns P. juracolaria, although both these species are sympatric on the Balkans, particularly in Montenegro (see also under Perizoma obsoletata, above). This is the first documented record of P. juracolaria for Albania. Serbia, Kraljevo Region, Stolovi Mt., Veliki Čukar, 688m, N43.601922°, E020.685631°, 05.VII.2017, 2 males (Fig. 16: i) Gen. prep. 1./23.I.2021, S.

Perhaps all reports in the literature for Albania for taraxaci ([Denis & Schiffermüller], 1775) refer to Lemonia strigata, a species that is not rare in Albania from September to November from the sea coast to about 1100m. a.s.l. Both species are split chronologically and by altitude and can be easily split by habitus as well. Lemonia strigata usually has a dark median line which sometimes can be reduced (Beshkov & Nahirnić, 2019a). North Macedonia, Gostivar, Suva Gora Mts, below Korito Village, 1091m, N41.823606°, E020996654°, 26.IX.2016; Vardar-Pčinja, above Katlanovska Banja, 304m, N41.901710°, E021.690316°, 14.X.2016; Ohrid, Petrina Planina, between Ohrid and Velestovo, 1005m, N41.090632°, E020.827265°, 15.X.2016; Vardar River Valley, above Demir Kapija Town, on the road to Besvica Village, 244m, N41.382783°, E022.195847°, 17.X.2017; Prilep, Babuna Planina, Pletvar Pass, 960m, N41.37008°, E021.66988°, 27.IX.2019. It seems that Lemonia strigata is well presented in North Macedonia while ([Denis & Schiffermüller], 1775) is not confirmed for that country.

Beshkov, J. Toth & J. Bereczki legs, as a day time copula on a flower of high sticky sp. cf. Silene italica (L.) Pers. In Bulgaria its northernmost locality was in Kresna Gorge (Beshkov, 2000). The new locality seems to be the northernmost not only for Bulgaria, but also for the whole range of the species which is endemic for the southern Balkans (T.L.: Ohrid).

Bryophilinae

Nyctobrya amasina (Draudt, 1931) Albania, river canyon, Çorovodë town south, opposite of Çerenisht village, N40.4846°, E020.2362°, 09.VIII.2018, 2 males (Fig. 22: b), genitalia checked. Reported as new for Albania by Beshkov & Nahirnić (2018a), and subsequently found in some more localities (Beshkov & Nahirnić, 2018b; Beshkov & Nahirnić, 2019a; Beshkov et al., 2020a).

Proxenus hospes (Freyer, [1831]) Albania, Shkodra County, Vau i Dejës, 333m, N42.00283°, E019.68944°, 05.X.2019, 1 male (Fig. 22: c). Known from: 6 km E of Tirana to Elbasan (Beshkov & Misja, 1995), Vukopoles (Nahirnić & Beshkov, 2017); Starë; ; Parpunje; Ardenica; Syri i Kaltër (Beshkov & Nahirnić, 2019a).

Nonagria typhae (Thunberg, 1784) Albania, Gjirokastër County, municipality, Syri i Kaltër spring, N39.923070°, E020.191716°, 155 m, 12.VII.2018, 1 female (Fig. 22: d). In Albania known from Stan- Karbunarë (Beshkov & Nahirnić, 2018a), Butrint Lake and Prespa Lake (Beshkov & Nahirnić, 2018b). Third report for Albania.

Pabulatrix pabulatricula (Brahm, 1791) Bosnia & Herzegovina, Rogatica, Pribošijevići village, 643m, N43.783897°, E018.985954°, 04.VII.2017, meadow, gardens, Quercus forest, 1 male (Fig. 22: e), genitalia checked. New genus and new species for Bosnia & Herzegovina and the Western Balkans. In the Balkan Peninsula P. pabulatricula is known from two localities close to each other, near the southern Black Sea Coast of Bulgaria (Hacker, 1996; Beshkov, 2000; Beshkov, 2017).

Apamea lithoxylaea ([Denis & Schiffermüller], 1775) Albania, Prespa Lake, near Pustec (=Liqenas) Village, 849m, N40.770632°, E020.908891°, 10.VII.2018, 1 male (Fig. 22: f). New species for Albania.

For Bosnia & Herzegovina O. versicolor is mentioned as present there (e.g. Vasić, 2002) but without locality and we hardly believe the reliability of such reports if the genitalia were not checked. This seems to be the first reliable report for Bosnia & Herzegovina.

Tiliacea cypreago (Hampson, 1906) Albania, Gjirokastër County, Bëncës River Gorge, ca 3 km SW from Bëncë Village, Tepelene District, 555m, N40.24188°, E019.97882°, 04.X.2019 (Fig. 22: g).

According to Vasić (2002) and Zečević (2002) Episema tersa is known in all neighboring countries of Serbia. At that time, however, Montenegro and Serbia were one country. Here Episema tersa is reported as a new species for Montenegro.

known only from Quarrishta [Qarrishtë] (Misja, 1980). Second report for Albania. Bosnia & Herzegovina, above Konjic, 652m, N43.647227°, E017.987513°, 02.VII.2017, dolomites with Carpinus, Pinus nigra, Acer, Quercus, 4 males. In Bosnia and Herzegovina known from Plaša as Agrotis strigula Thnbg. (Rebel, 1904). Findings of Lycophotia porphyria in Serbia and in Bosnia and Herzegovina in localities of low altitude are surprising. In Bulgaria, North Macedonia and Albania it is a mountain species found mostly at altitudes of 1400-2000m.a.s.l. with few exceptions. It inhabits the coniferous zone in the mountains where the possible food plant – Bruckentalia spiculifolia – is present. In the localities of low altitude in Serbia and Bosnia and Herzegovina mentioned here Bruckentalia spiculifolia is also present, which seems to be the reason why Lycophotia porphyria is present there.
