    Abstract

    A total of 13 Odonata species were recorded during a short visit to Albania. Two species,
    Cordulegaster heros and Somatochlora metallica, are recorded for the first time for this
    country. One male of C. heros was observed on 21-vii-2015 on a small stream before ending
    up in the Mati River south of Klos. Somatochlora metallica was found on 24-vii-2015 at
    the glacial lake Buni Jezerce in the Prokletije Mountains in northern Albania, nearly at the
    border with Montenegro
