Sažetak
The aquatic dance fly fauna on the Cetina River was investigated between May and September 2005 and during March and April 2006. Samples were collected with an aspirator and by hand net-ting at 8 different locations through the whole stream flow of the Cetina River and at the springs of three tributaries (Sveti Spas spring, spring of Ruda River and spring of Grab River). The purpose of the research was to investigate the diversity of the aquatic dance flies (Diptera, Empididae) and to determine which locality had the greatest species richness. Twenty species of aquatic dance flies from 6 different genera were recorded. Four genera belong to the subfamily Clinocerinae (Clinocera, Dolichocephala, Kmvarzia, Wiedemannia) and two genera to the subfamily Hemerodromiinae (Hemero-dromia, Chelifera). Radmanove mlinice, near the mouth of the river Cetina into the Adriatic Sea was the most species-rich site.
