Sažetak
Three butterfly species were recorded for the first time for the fauna of Bosnia and Herzegovina in the Herzegovina region: Danaus chrysippus, Cacyreus marshalli and Carcharodus orientalis. The records represent expansions to the known distribution, although the presence of all three species was expected as they are to be found in neighbouring countries. This is the third record that D. chrysippus has reached southern Croatia, and the first time it has been observed in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The record of the non-native C. marshalli fills the distributional gap, and the record of C. orientalis, a rare and local species in the region, represents an increase of the known distribution in the mainland of the western Adriatic coastline. In the future, additional records of rare and unrecorded species are expected in the country.
