Sažetak
Preparing the accession into the EU, Croatia expanded ecological network beyond the core of the National and Nature Parks aligned with the EU Nature Protection Legislation ; the Bird and Habitat Directives (HD). Based on 506 species and 74 habitats on Directives, more than 37% of total territory of the country is included in Natura 2000 Network. This network of areas extend across public and private lands with varying degrees of legal protection and requires new approaches for public and private collaboration to ensure biological values are maintained, especially as the conflicts between the conservation goals and the interest of different stakeholder groups at local scale is increasing. Butterflies and moths with 10 HD Annex II species are present on 107 sites. In 2014 we started a EU Natura 2000 Integration Project (NIP). Within the scope of the project activities, the Lepidoptera team started a field research in order to gather new distributional and monitoring data on species of the taxonomic group Lepidoptera (butterflies and moths) with special attention on the HD species. With the help of previously established national database of Lepidoptera distribution records in Croatia and accumulated knowledge 124 10x10 km square grid cells were selected within 50 50x50 km grid cells based on features specified in the Contract. The overview of the results and future plans will be discussed.
