All five of these localities make just 9% of the presently known Karst Viper distribution area on the Balkan Peninsula, while a much bigger proportion of its distribution area is located in Bosnia and Herzegovina and Montenegro. The whole distribution area of this taxon is spread over mountainous regions of 6 countries, witch makes the regional cooperation even more necessary for the Karst Viper protection. In this Graduation Thesis we discuss the rediscovery of the Karst Viper in the southern parts of Velebit mountain after 109 years, and a newly discovered locality on the mountain Poštak. The Karst Viper in Croatia favors high-mountain dry grasslands, on southern and southeastern exposures, at altitudes from 1100 to 1900 m above the see level.    HYLA VOL. 2012.

Ovih pet lokaliteta þini tek nešto manje od 9% areala ove svojte, dok najveüi dio areala þine planine Bosne i Hercegovine. ýitav areal rasprostire se preko teritorija 6 država i regionalna suradnja na istraživanjima i zaštiti su neophodni za opstanak planinskog žutokruga. Ovim radom opisuje se ponovni nalaz planinskog žutokruga na južnom Velebitu nakon punih 109 godina, te otkriüe posve novog lokaliteta na planini Poštak. Planinski žutokrug u Hrvatskoj preferira visoko-planinske suhe travnjake, J i JI ekspozicije, na visinama izmeÿu 1100 i 1900m nadmorske visine.
