Abstract
We collected adult caddisflies during the period October 2016 - October 2017 in Brodec village in the Karadak Mountains in North Macedonia. We found 26 species in total, two of which are recorded for the first time from North Macedonia: Limnephilus auricula Curtis, 1834, and Limnephilus griseus (Linnaeus, 1758). The finding of these two species contributes to the knowledge of their distribution patterns and shows that Balkan Peninsula has still poorly investigated areas.
