Sažetak
A preliminary checklist of geometrid moths of Croatia is presented. The preliminary checklist includes records from published faunistic papers, data from collections of Croatian museums and unpublished field research data. So far, almost 440 species in total is recorded, which represents about 45% of the overall European geometrid fauna. The total number of geometrids of Croatia is subject to change because of missing data from museums and private collections from Europe. Distribution and conservation status of geometrid moths is insufficiently known because Croatia has not been equally and systematically surveyed in each biogeografic region (continental, Alpine, Pannonian and Mediterranean) that it covers. Status of several geometrid species in Croatia is discussed, e.g. Holoterpna pruinosata (Staudinger, 1898), Rhodostrophia sieversi (Christoph, 1882), Scopula beckeraria (Lederer, 1853), Emmiltis pygmaearia (Hübner, 1809), Idaea leipnitzi Hausmann, 2004, Pseudobaptria bogumilaria (Rebel, 1904), Eupithecia riparia Herrich-Schäffer, 1851, Eumera regina Staudinger, 1892, Erannis ankeraria (Staudinger, 1861), Stegania dalmataria Guenée, 1858. Future activities should be focused on finalizing the checklist, creating a national web database, encouraging long-term geometrid moths’ research and active involvement in global activities focused on research of Geometridae.
