Abstract
Leptire (Lepidoptera) ubrajamo među najbrojnije i najraznolikije skupine
životinja. Nažalost, pojačana urbanizacija, intenziviranje poljoprivredne proizvodnje kao i zarašćivanje
livadnih površina - najvažnijih staništa leptira - posljedično utječu na pad brojnosti leptira. Iz tih razloga,
izdvajamo osam kritično ugroženih vrsta danjih leptira unutar hrvatske faune svrstanih u četiri porodice.
Opstanak populacija leptira, posebno vrsta unutar roda Phengaris, ovisi o tipu staništa i prisutnosti
ovipozicijskih biljaka. Kako bi pratili status kritično ugroženih vrsta leptira, nužna su sustavna i kontinuirana
istraživanja.Butterflies (Lepidoptera) are one of the largest and most diverse group of animals.
Unfortunately, increased urbanization, intensification of agricultural production and overgrowth of meadow
areas - the most important habitats of butterflies - have resulted in decline in the number of butterflies. For
these reasons, we issue eight critically endangered species of butterflies (Rhopalocera) within Croatian fauna
classified into four families. Survival of populations, especially species of the genus Phengaris, depends on
habitat type and the presence of oviposition plants. In order to monitor the status of critically endangered
butterfly species, systematic and continuous research is necessary
