Sažetak

The first record of the pyrophilous ground beetle Sericoda quadripunctata (De Geer, 1774) (Coleoptera: Carabidae) in Croatia is presented. A large population of the species was found during field studies in the beech forests between the Veliko Rujno and Stražbenica, south Velebit Mountain. Findings of this rare carabid beetle, which are common in habitats of naturally-occurring forest combustion, as mentioned in the Red Data Books of different European countries, imply the possibility of further findings of this rare pyrophilous species in inaccessible parts of their potential habitat distribution.
