Sažetak
The silver-striped hawk-moth (Hippotion celerio) is a quite rare species of the Croatian fauna, having only five past records from the 19th and 20th century. Given the lack of recent records, the species' presence in the country was deemed questionable. Here presented and discussed are three new records of this species from coastal Croatia which give us new distribution data while simutaneously confirming its occasional presence in the country.
