Sažetak
Study of the horsefly fauna diversity in the area of the Cetina River during 2018 resulted in 23 species records of which Chrysops viduatus (Fabricius, 1794), Atylotus rusticus (Linnaeus, 1767), Therioplectes tunicatus Szilády, 1927, Hybomitra bimaculata (Macquart, 1826), Tabanus lunatus Fabricius, 1794 and Philipomyia aprica (Meigen, 1820) are new for the studied area. The total number of horsefly species currently known in the study area increased to 35, while new locality records are provided for 17 species. During 2014 and 2015 in the Neretva River valley 15 species of horse-flies were recorded, of which new locality records are provided for 10 species. In the Neretva River valley a total of 37 species of horse-flies were recorded. Altogether, 46 species have been recorded in the study areas from 78 species recorded so far in the Croatian fauna. Considering biogeography, the majority of species recorded in both studied areas belong to the Mediterranean group of species.
