 Acta entomologica serbica, 2010, 15(2): 265-267 UDC 595.76(497) Short communication  NEW RECORDS OF WATER BEETLES OF THE GENUS  ANACAENA TOMSON, 1859 FROM THE BALKAN PENINSULA   ANA PAVIĆEVIĆ* and VLADIMIR PEŠIĆ  Department of Biology, Faculty of Sciences, University of Montenegro, Cetinjski put b.b, 81000 Podgorica, Montenegro,  * E-mail: anpavicevic@gmail.com    The genus Anacaena Tomson, 1859 is known from all major biogeographical regions, and comprises 105 species. Only eleven species are noted for Europe (HANSEN, 2010). To date only two species of the genus Anacaena (Anacaena globulus and A. limbata) have been recorded from Montenegro (GEORGIEV, 1971; PRZEWOZNY et al., 2009); while only one species (Anacaena limbata) has been recorded from Serbia. According to fauna Europaea the occurrence of A. bipustulata (Marsham, 1802) in Bulgaria is doubtful, while other species are not recorded from Bulgaria (HANSEN, 2010).   From 2006-2010, the authors carried out a biological survey on freshwater macrobenthic fauna. Several water beetle species of the genus Anacaena were collected and are reported herein.   Eighty-two specimens were collected from various water areas (rivers, streams, springs, ponds, pools) with a sieve and a net. The beetles were preserved in 70 % alcohol.  Mouth parts, thoracic structures and male genitalia were dissected and investigated. The specimens were examined using a stereomicroscope and a light microscope Olympus CX 21. The morphological terminology is based on HEBAUER & KLAUSNITZER (1998).   Materials have been deposited in the University of Montenegro, Department of Biology, Podgorica.

НОВИ НАЛАЗИ ПРЕДСТАВНИКА РОДА ANACAENA TOMSON, 1859  НА БАЛКАНСКОМ ПОЛУОСТРВУ   АНА ПАВИЋЕВИЋ И ВЛАДИМИР ПЕШИЋ   Извод  Представници рода Anacaena Tomson, 1859 срећу се у готово свим биогеографским регионима и састоји се од сто пет врста. За подручје Европе познато је свега једанаест врста. До сада само двије врсте рода Anacaena (A. globulus и A. limbata) су забиљежене на подручју Црне Горе (GEORGIEV, 1971; PRZEWOZNY et al., 2009), док је само једна врста (A. limbata) регистрована за Србију. Према Фауни Европе присуство A. bipustulata (Marsham, 1802) у Бугарској је неизвјесно, док друге врсте нису евидентиране (HANSEN, 2010).  У раду су представљени резултати нови за националне фауне: A. bipustulata  (Marsham, 1802) (Црна Гора), А. lutescens (Stephens, 1829) (Бугарска и Црна Гора), A. rufipes (Guillebeau, 1896) (Бугарска, Црна Гора и Србија).
