Sažetak
The Plitvice Lakes National Park is located in the mountainous region of Croatia, in the Lika region. The barrage system of the Plitvice Lakes is a highly specific biodynamic ecosystem formed by sixteen lakes divided by numerous travertine barriers. The area of the National Park harbours high diversity of different habitat types typical of the karst systems, such as springs, streams, lakes and travertine barriers. Various aspects of faunistics, ecology and distribution of caddisflies within the Plitvice Lakes NP have been previously studied, however, an overall list of species has not been published so far. Here we present data on faunistics of caddisflies collected in the Plitvice Lakes NP area during various studies carried out from 1997 to 2008 using different methods (light traps, emergence traps, window traps and entomological nets). The current study represents an important contribution to the knowledge of caddisfly fauna in Croatia since it is still insufficiently investigated
