Abstract
The aim of this paper is to present the first data on the diversity of the moth family Zygaenidae, on Koritnik Mountain in Kosovo. Although this mountain is a biodiversity hotspot, no study of Zygaenidae has ever been conducted. During our survey in 2021 and 2022, in ten localities, 11 Zygaenid species were recorded. Among them Jordanita notata (Zeller, 1847) is reported for the first time for Kosovo.
