Sažetak
During two year research period on the Velebit Mt, 106 butterfly species were recorded at 70 localities. With a length of 145 km, Velebit is the longest mountain of the Dinaric Alps, characterized with high indentedness, abrupt karstic slopes, high daily temperature variations, mixed climate regimes and a combination of central European and Mediterranean vegetation. Overall number of recorded species for the mountain is 137, representing 73% of Croatian butterfly fauna. Main factors influencing butterfly diversity on Velebit Mt. include habitat structure and quality including plant diversity. Biogeographical analysis shows the dominance of Eurosibirean (62%), Oriental (14%) and Mediterranean (13%) species. From 106 species detect on Velebit Mt., 13 are listed on The Red List of Croatian butterflies: Maculinea rebeli, Parnassius apollo, Apatura iris, Glaucopsyche alexis, Limenitis populi, Parnassius mnemosyne, Scolitantides orion, Erebia medusa, Euphydryas aurinia, Maculinea arion, Melitaea aurelia, Melitaea britomartis and Pseudophilotes vicrama. Human depopulation and no land use in this mountain area led to habitat succession, which is nowadays the major treat for butterfly diversity. Urgent practical conservation measures were proposed within three large protected areas like grazing or mowing for maintaining suitable habitats.
