Abstract

The study was carried out in order to determine the species of the superorder Neuropterida in the Protected Area Jasen, Central Macedonia.

A total of 44 species from 10 families were determined, and 17 of these species were new records for the Macedonian fauna. Notes on ecology and altitudinal distribution of the Neuropterida in the area are also provided.
