Insecta, Lepidoptera, microlepidoptera, checklist, AlbaniaAbstract
All available published data on the microlepidoptera fauna of Albania are collated and combined with the results of modern sampling to form the first known checklist of Albanian microlepidoptera. Published data are minimal as a consequence of the political history of the country; these historic reports are supplemented by active sampling during the present millennium. In total we record 1266 species across 46 families. Of these, a total of 932 species (72%) are recorded in the present millennium and are considered to be currently resident. A total of 314 taxa (24%) has not been recorded in the country for 100 years or longer. Some may be extinct, but the number more likely reflects the extremely poorly-recorded nature of the Albanian fauna in general, as does the fact that 289 species reported here are, apparently, completely new to the Albanian fauna.
