Sažetak
This paper represents the first systematic butterfly checklist of the surrounding area of Karlovac. The research into butterfly fauna diversity was carried out during the period 2001-2007. Sixty four butterfly species were recorded. Adding species from literature sources, the total number on checklist rises to 74, representing 37.95% of the butterfly fauna of Croatia. Forty eight butterfly species were recorded for the first time in this area, and ten species from older literature sources need to be confirmed in future surveys. Records of species are noted with sites and dates of findings. Faunistic and biogeographical analyses were made, as well as a short overview of threats, legislative protection and habitat preferences of the species.
