BACKGROUND

The species cluster comprises species with limited distribution, currently documented from Kosovo, Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Bulgaria.

NEW INFORMATION

In this paper, we describe a new species, sp. nov., discovered in two tributaries of the Ibër River Basin, within the Kopaonik Mountains of the Republic of Kosovo. Morphologically, males of this species closely resemble those of Ibrahimi, Bilalli & Kučinić, 2022 from Serbia's Jastrebac Mountain and Ibrahimi & Bilalli, 2023 from the Sharr Mountains in the Republic of Kosovo. However, the new species can be distinguished by its smaller aedeagus, thicker and differently-shaped parameres, as well as distinctive patterns and elongated spines on the parameres. Notably, this species is restricted to spring areas, indicating sensitivity to water pollution and habitat degradation. Additionally, we provide a list of caddisfly species found in sympatry with the new species. sp. nov. is the third known species within the species cluster, identified in the Republic of Kosovo.

背景

该物种群包含分布范围有限的物种，目前在科索沃、塞尔维亚、波斯尼亚和黑塞哥维那以及保加利亚有记录。

新信息

在本文中，我们描述了一个新物种，[新物种名称]，它是在科索沃共和国科帕奥尼克山脉伊巴尔河流域的两条支流中发现的。在形态上，该物种的雄性与来自塞尔维亚亚斯特列巴茨山的伊布拉希米、比拉利和库契尼奇（2022年）以及来自科索沃共和国沙尔山的伊布拉希米和比拉利（2023年）的雄性非常相似。然而，新物种可以通过其较小的阳茎、更厚且形状不同的抱握器，以及抱握器上独特的图案和细长的刺来区分。值得注意的是，该物种仅限于泉水区域，这表明它对水污染和栖息地退化很敏感。此外，我们提供了一份与新物种同域分布的毛翅目物种清单。[新物种名称]是在科索沃共和国确定的该物种群中的第三个已知物种。
