Sažetak

Historical records of occurrence of the European Roller Coracias garrulus in Croatia are examined to determine its former breeding distribution in Croatia. The European Roller once bred in lowland region of Croatia and was most numerous in river valleys. As in most other parts of its European breeding range, it suffered a severe decline and finally went extinct in lowland region. The last confirmation of its breeding in lowland region was from Hrvatsko Zagorje from the 1980s. At the same time, in the 1980s, breeding was for the first time recorded in the coastal region, in Ravni kotari. After almost thirty years without confirmations, breeding was again confirmed in Ravni kotari in 2010. Following the rediscovery, a monitoring program was initiated in 2011. Subsequently, breeding attempt was also recoreded in Istria. Launching targeted conservation
measures is urgently needed to preserve the European Roller
as a breeding bird in Croatia.
