Sažetak
Eleonora's falcon (Falco eleonorae Gene 1834) has been noted during nesting time on the islands of Mljet, Vis, Biševo, Sv. Andrija (W of Vis), on the Palagruža archipelago, on the islet of Veliki Rašip (Kornati archipelago), and on Kamik rock (W of Sv. Andrija), while before nesting time it has been seen on the islet of Jabuka and Greben rock (SE of Vis). There have been no more than a few irregular sightings on the Kornati islands, which are the most northerly possible nesting place for the bird. In the period between 1989 and 1996 it was estimated that on the Croatian Adriatic islands there were some 21 to 24 pairs all told. Accordingly, the total population in the Adriatic comes to at most 40 pairs and it is critically endangered. Since the Adriatic population of this endemic Mediterranean species is isolated from the remainder species' range, regular monitoring of the numbers should be carried out, and the species should be specially protected.
