Ano Ydroussa (Greek : Άνω Υδρούσσα, before 1928: Άνω Κόττορι – Ano Kottori) [2] is a village in Florina regional unit, Western Macedonia, Greece.

The village in Ottoman Turkish was called Yukarı Kotor. [3] In statistics gathered by Vasil Kanchov in 1900, Ano Kottori was populated by 60 Christian Albanians and 168 Bulgarians. [4] Kanchov wrote that Christian Albanians of the late Ottoman period in Ano Kottori were increasingly being assimilated by its Bulgarian population. [5]

In the early twentieth century, Kato Kotori was involved with the Bulgarian national movement. [5]

Ano Idrousa had 333 inhabitants in 1981. [6] In fieldwork done by anthropologist Riki Van Boeschoten in late 1993, Ano Idrousa was populated by Slavophones and Arvanites. [6] The Macedonian language was used by people of all ages, both in public and private settings, and as the main language for interpersonal relationships. [6] Some elderly villagers had little knowledge of Greek. [6]
