Microlepidoptera of Croatia: a bibliography and review of the published and some unpublished records of species from the families Micropterigidae, Eriocraniidae, Hepialidae, Nepticulidae, Opostegidae, Heliozelidae, Adelidae, Prodoxidae, Incurvariidae and Tischeriidae, and Alucitidae and Pterophoridae

A bibliography and review of the published records of species from several Microlepidoptera families in Croatia are presented. Altogether 274 species from eight superfamilies, 12 families and 55 genera of Microlepidoptera occurring in Croatia are presented. The paper is a summarization of available published records, from historical publications to recent studies. It also includes material collected during field surveys conducted by the second and third author in 2018 and 2019 in Croatia. Eight out of the 61 recorded species were not previously reported from that country and are considered new to its fauna. Furthermore, the findings of 10 species reconfirm their occurrence in the fauna of Croatia, as they are the first recent records in 100 years or more. Except for the families Pyralidae and Crambidae, no checklists for Croatian microlepidopterous families have been published in the form of journal articles. This paper represents a first summary of available published records and a first species list of the families Micropterigidae, Eriocraniidae, Hepialidae, Nepticulidae, Opostegidae, Heliozelidae, Adelidae, Prodoxidae, Incurvariidae and Tischeriidae, and Alucitidae and Pterophoridae in Croatia. By making data about the occurrence of species from these families in Croatia available, this list is a major contribution to the overall knowledge of the Croatian fauna of Microlepidoptera. It aims at increasing the interest in these micromoth families in that country and inspiring future research into this group. It is also hoped that it will encourage the creation of checklists of these microlepidopterous families or even all micromoths in Croatia

Notes on occurrence of moths (Lepidoptera, Heterocera) in Ksany village in the commune of Opatowiec of the Świętokrzyskie Province

On selected days from July to September 2017, the butterfly species with twilight and nocturnal activity in the village of Ksany in agriculturally and little anthropogenically transferred land were studied. Catching was done in the evening and night hours, using a method of the vividly attracting to the light. Flying moths were photographed on-site for later determination. A total of 13 catches were carried out with an average at intervals of 1-2 weeks. Over 60 moths species were determined, mostly belonging to the families Geometridae and Erebidae. When analyzing the results of catches, basic weather parameters such as temperature, air pressure and moon phase were taken into account
