Sažetak
After being recorded for the first time in Albania in 1979, S. albopicta did not spread to the other countries of the region. Next evidence came in August 2001 when one larva was sampled from used tire made in France and imported to Podgorica (capital of Montenegro, Serbia and Montenegro) from Germany. Despite almost unfavorable rainfall distribution pattern with less than 500mm of precipitation during April - September period S. albopicta was established there. In the course of three years Asian tiger invaded several places of Montenegrian sea shore and established numerous colonies in man made water containers. First record of the same species for Croatia was in Zagreb in October 2004 when a total of 13 larvae were collected in a disposed ceramic toilet bowl. During the summer of 2005 new country evidences were made in continental Bosnia and Herzegovina (Banja Luka) and coastal Slovenia (sea resort Portoroz). Several weeks later the tiger larvae and adults were found on Croatian Adriatic coast in several places in Istria, Zadar, Split and Dubrovnik. For the places in western part of Istria, we presume that the tiger spread there from Italy and Slovenia, but it seems that their introductions to Split and Zadar were more probably connected to the Adriatic sea traffic.
