Abstract

The study presents new records of Psocoptera (Insecta) species from Albania, Bulgaria, and Serbia, enhancing the understanding of barkfly diversity in the Balkans. Noteworthy findings include the first records of Hemineura dispar Tetens, 1891 (species complex) from Albania, Mesopsocus immunis (Stephens, 1836) from Albania and Serbia, and Amphigerontia intermedia (Tetens, 1891) from Bulgaria. Additionally, Ptycta nadleri Galil, 1981, a species with limited distribution, was documented in Bulgaria, extending the known range of this species.
