Sažetak
The paper presents information on the spider collection (Araneae) housed in the Natural History Museum in Zagreb, Croatia. The collection was founded in 1931 and now includes the material assembled in 1884–1964; it consists of 2,461 lots and numbers 8,478 specimens belonging to 464 species, mainly collected by the Croatian arachnologist Narcis Damin. Most specimens are well-preserved in ethanol. This spider collection does not cover all Croatian regions with the majority of samples (67%) originating from coastal regions of east Adriatic. A taxonomic re-examination of the collection has revealed 31 species that are new to the Croatian spider fauna. Spider collecting has been resumed in Croatia recently.
