Sažetak
The Plitvice Lakes National Park is the oldest national park in Southeast Europe and the largest national park in Croatia, situated in the mountainous karst area of Central Croatia. Its interconnected lakes are arranged in cascades separated by natural travertine dams, and due to their specificity NP is placed to the UNESCO World Heritage list. Crayfish research within the NP borders was sporadic in the past and there is no reliable data on the state of astaco fauna. Continuous crayfish research within the NP was conducted between 2002 and 2005. Research was dedicated to the distribution, ecology and dynamics of crayfish present in the water bodies of the NP. Two out of five European crayfish species were recorded, namely Astacus astacus and Austropotamobius torrentium. A. astacus was recorded on 17 localities mainly in lotic habitats on the travertine dams, while it was never recorded within the lentic habitats. A. torrentium was recorded only within five localities, in the small streams feeding lakes. In addition, on three localities mixed populations of the two species were recorded, presumably A. astacus presence is of anthropogenic origin. All of the obtained results on the distribution, ecology and dynamics of A. astacus and A. torrentium are valuable contribution to the knowledge of the biodiversity and specificity of Croatian and European astaco fauna. The obtained data are also fundamental for the development of management strategies with the aim of better crayfish protection in the circumstances of increasing anthropogenic pressure onto the different habitats within the NP.
