Sažetak
The Heterocera in the IgaIffy Collection of the mountainous areas of Risnjak (Gorski kotar) and Lička Plješevica (Lika) (leg. K. Igalffy) contain 127 taxa. In the Macrolepidoptera (Heterocera) group we have established 118 species, and 9 species in the Microlepidoptera group. We have established 17 families of moths. The greatest number from Geometridae families, 44 species and Noctuidae, 29 species.
Fifty nine species (Heterocera) were recorded in the Risnjak National Park. Seventy eight so far unrecorded species were established in the Lička Plješevica. Together with the number cited in literature this totals 164 registered species of Heterocera fauna for this mountain. According to available literature, in the central-mountain part of Croatia, 22 unrecorded species were established, for Gorski kotar 5 and for Lika 59. According to this data the degree of research of Macrolepidoptera fauna in the central-mountain area of Croatia is 55-65%, for Gorski kotar 65-75%, for area of Lika 35-45%, for mountains Lička Plješevica 25-30% and Risnjak 10-15%, while data about Microlepidoptera is negligible.
To demonstrate the characteristics of Macrolepidoptera fauna we made an analysis of noctuids fauna for the areas of Gorski kotar, Turopolje and southern Dalmatia.
Zoogeographical analysis shows domination of Eurosiberian species which is based on the ecological characteristics. The high percentage of the Oriental species is the result of the Mediterranean influence on this region and faunal migration of some species of moths.
