NEW RECORDS OF AQUATIC DANCE FLIES(EMPIDIDAE: CLINOCERINAE AND HEMERODROMIINAE) FROM BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA

Adult aquatic dance flies (Empididae) were collected during April 2006, October 2007 and July 2012 in Bosnia and Herzegovina using sweep nets and by aspirator. Sampling was done on six sampling sites. From 15 species recorded in this study, 5 are new to the fauna of Bosnia and Herzegovina: Roederiodes macedonicus Wagner & Horvat, Wiedemannia (Philolutra) queyrasiana Vaillant, Wiedemannia sp. A, Chelifera flavella (Zetterstedt) and Chelifera siveci Wagner. Overall 40 species are presently known from Bosnia and Herzegovina, belonging to 9 genera. This study represents a contribution to the knowledge of aquatic dance flies and especially of endemic species of the Dinarides and Balkan Peninsula and their present distribution.
