Source-derived summary

Lisina is a mountain of volcanic origin, located between the Municipality of Mrkonjić Grad and the Municipality of Šipovo, Bosnia and Herzegovina. Its highest peak, Bandira, is at a height of 1,467 m (4,813 ft).

Thanks to its geological structure, it is characterized by the great biodiversity of plant and animal species. More than 1,000 plant species, about 1,500 species of mushrooms, with particularly abundant truffles occurrence, five species of fish inhabiting mountain streams and Balkana Lakes, about ten species of amphibians and reptiles, 29 species of mammals and 107 bird species have been discovered and described in previous studies. About 360 sources (mountain springs) of drinking water were found on and around mountain, which represent significant water resources in the local area.

On its top there is a mountain lodge, Planinarski Dom "Lisina", and on the slopes of the mountain there are several villages of Mrkonjič municipality. At the foothills of Lisina, near the village of Podrašnica, there is a picnic and recreation resort, Eco Zone "Zelenkovac".

Editorial summary

Editorial reviewA strong orientation record where physical form, institutional use and historical geography need to be read together. The current 168-word lead offers orientation but no explicit four-digit date, so chronology should not be assumed. The selected authority fields contribute no independent date. Its value is orientation rather than verdict, with Lisina, Bosnia and Herzegovina providing the first useful test.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

A short description can identify a subject without explaining its stakes. For “Lisina (Bosnia and Herzegovina mountain)”, the useful work is to connect “mountain” to the records capable of establishing context and consequence.

Evidence profile

Place names and jurisdictional language are key evidence: both can reveal earlier catalogue descriptions and overlooked record series. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 14, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q44976. Authority coordinates are 44.397, 17.042. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank.

Critical limits

A single description cannot reconcile every naming convention, rebuilding phase or administrative transfer associated with a place. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
