Advances in the Studies of the Fauna of the Balkan Peninsula: Papers Dedicated to the Memory of Guido Nonveiller

INTRODUCTION

In this paper we describe one new genus: Nonveilleriella n. gen. and two new specie§.: Nonveilleriella ognjenovici n. sp. and Rozajella deelemani n. sp. ofLeptodiroid Leptodirina from Montenegro. We compare with the other genera of Leptodirina which are the most geographically close to them (but not evidently the most phylogenetically close): Parapropus (towards the north), Leptostagus and Petkovskiella (towards the south). We also give further descriptions of Rozajella, Leptostagus and Petkovskiella which have never been extensively described. The synonymy of Petkovskiella henrikenghoffi S. B. Curcic & B. P .M. Curcic with P. stygia (Karaman) is established.
