Predrag Jakšić, Gerhard M. Tarmann, Ana Nahirnić

Abstract


Faunistic data on 11 species of Zygaenidae from seven pre-selected research areas in Montenegro obtained during several trips in the year 2017 are presented. Photographs of adults of Jordanita notata, Zygaena punctum, Zygaena viciae, Zygaena ephialtes and Zygaena filipendulae are shown. Interspecific mating attempts by males of Zygaena filipendulae with females of Zygaena ephialtes and Z. viciae are discussed.

Keywords
