Sažetak
Forty two dragonfly species were previously reported for Karlovac County. Historical as well as recently collected but unpublished records add seven more species to records for the analysed territory, raising the number of dragonfly species to 49. Analysis revealed uneven temporal and spatial distribution of records, showing that the SE part of the county (Kordun subregion) is the most underexplored. Although most of the published and unpublished data were collected during the last 25 years it is obvious that odonatological inventory was not conducted systematically but rather accidentally. Furthermore, only three NATURA 2000 species {;Cordulegaster heros Theischinger, 1979, Leucorrhinia pectoralis (Charpentier, 1825) and Qphiogomphus cecilia (Fourcroy, 1785)) with very low number of records have been reported for Karlovac County. However, the presented synthesis provides a valuable contribution to the knowledge on the Croatian dragonfly fauna
