Of these insect species, 18 species or 38% were registered for the first time in Montenegro. The registered species belong to the orders Homoptera, Coleoptera, Lepidoptera and Hymenoptera. The largest number of species belong to the order Coleoptera (24 species or 50 %), then to order Lepidoptera (14 species or 29%), Hymenoptera (8 species or 17%) and Homoptera (2 species or 4%).
