Sažetak
A sample of 5155 horse flies (Tabanidae) specimens was collected in the Mediterranean part of Croatia (1995 - 1996). The sample contained 48 species. among which there were also three halophilous species: Chrysops italicus Meigen, 1804, Hybomitra acuminata (Loew, 1858). and Hybomitra expollicata (Pandellé, 1883). Halophilous species of horse flies were collected on the stations along the coast of the Adriatic Sea, and on stations in the vicinity of brackish waters of the Cetina river and in the delta of the river Neretva. The species Hybomitra expollicata has two peaks of activity - the first in June, and the second in August. whereas the species Chrysops itailicus and Hybomitra acuminata has only one peak of activity over the season.
