Sažetak
Bemisia tabaci was reported for the first time in the Mediterranean part of Croatia in 2000. It was found in glasshouses in the agricultural area between the towns Trogir and Omiš on the following crops: Euphorbia pulcherrima, Thunbergia grandiflora, Cucumis sativus, Solanum melongena, Phaseolus spp., Ficus carica, Rubus spp. and several weeds of the families Asteraceae and Solanaceae. In 2001. monitoring for the pest was organizes all over the country, in all 21 counties. In each county were several monitoring points so that all the major vegetable and flower producers were included. A special effort was made to record the spread of B. tabaci in the region where it was found for the first time, bearing in mind that optimal conditions for outdoor spread exist along the Adriatic coast. Yellow sticky traps and visual inspection are used to monitor for B.tabaci. Eradication measures were applied and regulatory measures have been taken to prevent further spread of B. tabaci to continental part of Croatia.
