Data from: The caddisfly fauna (Insecta, Trichoptera) of the rivers of the Black Sea basin in Kosovo with distributional data for some rare species

Adult caddisfly specimens were collected by the means of UV light trap in twelve stations that belong to the Black Sea water basin in Kosovo. Sixty-five species out of seventy-six reported in this paper are first records for the Kosovo caddisfly fauna. Most of the species belong to the Palearctic type of fauna (17) followed by the Euro-Asian group with 16 species, the European group with 10 species, the Middle or South-European group with 7 species, than the Balkanic group, the Balkanic-Carpathian group and the Middle or South-Eastern European group with 6 species each, the Mediterranean group with 5 species and finally the Eurosibirian group with 3 species. A sudden discovery of several species during this investigation (Agapetus delicatulus McLachlan, 1884, Psychomyia klapaleki Malicky, 1995, Tinodes janssensi Jacquemart, 1957, Hydropsyche emarginata Navas, 1923, Drusus botosaneanui Kumanski, 1968, Potamophylax rotundipennis (Brauer, 1857), Potamophylax schmidi Marinković, 1970, Ceraclea albimacula (Rambur, 1842), Helicopsyche bacescui Orghidan & Botosaneanu, 1953, Adicella filicornis Pictet, 1834, Beraea maurus (Curtis, 1834) and Beraeamyia hrabei Mayer, 1937) shows that in future data from poorly investigated areas in Europe will revise the existing knowledge on distribution of these and other species with known limited distributions.本研究于科索沃黑海流域的12个采样站点，采用紫外诱虫灯（UV light trap）采集了成虫石蛾（caddisfly）标本。本文报道的76种石蛾中，有65种为科索沃石蛾动物群的首次记录。其中占比最高的类群为古北界（Palearctic）动物区系，共计17种；其次为欧亚区系（16种）、欧洲区系（10种）、中欧或南欧区系（7种），随后是巴尔干区系、巴尔干-喀尔巴阡区系、中东欧或东南欧区系（各6种），地中海区系（5种），最后为欧亚西伯利亚区系（3种）。本次调查中意外发现的多个物种（包括*Agapetus delicatulus* McLachlan, 1884、*Psychomyia klapaleki* Malicky, 1995、*Tinodes janssensi* Jacquemart, 1957、*Hydropsyche emarginata* Navas, 1923、*Drusus botosaneanui* Kumanski, 1968、*Potamophylax rotundipennis* (Brauer, 1857)、*Potamophylax schmidi* Marinković, 1970、*Ceraclea albimacula* (Rambur, 1842)、*Helicopsyche bacescui* Orghidan & Botosaneanu, 1953、*Adicella filicornis* Pictet, 1834、*Beraea maurus* (Curtis, 1834)及*Beraeamyia hrabei* Mayer, 1937）表明，未来针对欧洲调查薄弱区域的采样数据，将修正我们对这些及其他已知分布范围有限的物种分布现状的认知。
