Sažetak
The altitudinal distribution of bats of four Plecotus species in Croatia was analysed. P. austriacus and P. kolombatovici are restricted to lower altitudes, under 800 m a.s.l.. P. auritus inhabits continental forest habitats, preferably beech forests, with exception of Pannonian lowland riverine forests of common oak which lie under 100 m a.s.l. too. Different to other three Plecotus species, Croatian findings of P. macrobullaris have an extremly wide altitudinal distribution, ranging from the sea level to the mountain tops, but with the most localities under 800 m a.s.l..
