B. subnubilus is distributed in Northern and Western Europe, spreading from Scandinavia, to East- and North-Russia, Western Europe including the British Islands, the Iberian Peninsula, Central Europe, Italy and the northern Balkan (Croatia, Slovakia, Slovenia, and Bulgaria). Larvae of B. subnubilus usually occur in large rivers and streams in lower river sections and can even be found in brackish water (Waringer & Graf, 2011; Wallace et al. 2003).	en	Karaouzas, Ioannis, Zawal, Andrzej, Michoński, Grzegorz, Pešić, Vladimir (2019): Contribution to the knowledge of the caddisfly fauna of Montenegro - New data and records from the karstic springs of Lake Skadar basin.

Limnephilus subcentralis Brauer, 1857 (most possible; needs confirmation with adults). If confirmed, then this is the first record for Montenegro. Due to the several unknown larvae of the tribe Limnephilini, it can not be confirmed with confidence based only on larval material.

6B3087D0FFE5FF9B31BBFC9FFC43BA5B.taxon	description	KIA 06 (A), second spring at Zeta River near Pričelje, 29. V. 2018, 1 ♂ pupa. First record for Montenegro. Lepidostoma hirtum is widespread throughout Europe and European Russia. From the Balkan Peninsula, it is present in Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Greece and Slovenia. Its presence in Montenegro fills the gap between its Balkan northernmost record (Croatia) and its southernmost (Greece). Larvae inhabit rivulets, small streams and rivers, the lake littoral and can even be found in brackish water (Tobias & Tobias, 1981; Waringer & Graf 2011; Wallace et al. 2003). They are often found among roots or debris of Alnus spp.	en	Karaouzas, Ioannis, Zawal, Andrzej, Michoński, Grzegorz, Pešić, Vladimir (2019): Contribution to the knowledge of the caddisfly fauna of Montenegro - New data and records from the karstic springs of Lake Skadar basin.

Until recently, Triaenodes ochreellus was known from Plavnica (Marinković- Gospodnetić, 1981) but recent taxonomic works confirm that T. ochreellus ochrellus is so far only found in ecoregions 1, 2, 8 and 13 (Iberic-Macaronesian, Pyrenees, Western Highlands, Western Plains, respectively) and T. ochreellus lefkas in ecoregions 3, 5 and 6 (Italy, Corsica and Malta, Dinaric Western Balkan, Hellenic Western Balkan, respectively) (Graf et al. 2008; de Jong et al. 2014).	en	Karaouzas, Ioannis, Zawal, Andrzej, Michoński, Grzegorz, Pešić, Vladimir (2019): Contribution to the knowledge of the caddisfly fauna of Montenegro - New data and records from the karstic springs of Lake Skadar basin.

Based on currents records, Sericostoma personatum Kirby & Spence, 1826 has not been recorded from most of the Balkans; thus it is probable that the species present in the drainage basin of Lake Skadar is Sericostoma scheideri Schneider, 1845. However, it must be noted that molecular analysis carried out by Leese (2004) revealed that the division of the Central European Sericostoma „ species ‟ into S. personatum and S. schneideri seems to be questionable. Considering the current state of knowledge, the species status of Sericostoma species may change in the future.	en	Karaouzas, Ioannis, Zawal, Andrzej, Michoński, Grzegorz, Pešić, Vladimir (2019): Contribution to the knowledge of the caddisfly fauna of Montenegro - New data and records from the karstic springs of Lake Skadar basin.

6B3087D0FFE2FF9C31BBFC14FE85B8FF.taxon	description	KIA 18 (B), spring “ Vukovo Vrelo ” in Vidrovan: 04. VI. 2018, 4 fifth instar larvae. Confirmed record for Montenegro where it was considered absent. Recent research in western Serbia and northern Montenegro has shown no trace of this species, in spite of its previous presence and that its area boundary in Serbia has moved from the Drina river (as the western boundary) to the Lisinski Brook - Grza River line, i. e. about 100 km eastwards (Ţivić et al. 2013). Macrozoobenthos research within Serbian watercourses between 1989 and 2010 suggested a shift of the western boundary of its distribution. In Bosnia and Herzegovina, the species was found in only one of ten former localities, implying that the species might entirely vanish from zoographic region 5 in the near future (Ţivić et al. 2013). The finding of T. anomalum in this study confirms its presence in Montenegro; however more research is needed in the region to confirm the findings of Ţivić et al. (2013). Faunistic surveys and records based on larvae are not frequently used or recommended, due to inability and uncertainty of identification to the species level in some cases (Waringer & Graf, 2011). However, we considered the current data as an important contribution to the knowledge of caddisfly fauna of Montenegro and it was proven that in some cases faunistic data based on larvae can be useful (e. g. Previšić et al. 2013). Nevertheless, future caddisfly surveys in the region, preferably based on adult material, will contribute significantly to the Trichoptera fauna of Montenegro. In addition, molecular analysis (DNA barcoding) will increase the knowledge of the species present in the area, where the caddisfly fauna is partially known. During this investigation, fourteen Trichoptera species were found; three being new records for Montenegro (Brachycentrus subnubilus, Lepidostoma hirtum, Triaenodes ochreellus lefkas) and one being a confirmed record of a previously thought lost species (Thremma anomalum). This investigation with several first records is a result of a few days collecting effort in Montenegro and shows that the country is still underinvestigated.	en	Karaouzas, Ioannis, Zawal, Andrzej, Michoński, Grzegorz, Pešić, Vladimir (2019): Contribution to the knowledge of the caddisfly fauna of Montenegro - New data and records from the karstic springs of Lake Skadar basin.
