Abstract

In the fourth report of the Croatian Birds Rarities Committee, new
accepted records of rare birds that were submitted to the committee in the period 2012-2016 are reported. Ten species, of which one is treated as escape from captivity, and two subspecies have been observed in Croatia for the first time. The list of birds of Croatia now holds 396 species in categories A, B and C, and 5 species in category C E. Further 11 species are recorded in category E and one in category D, and these are not included in the list of birds of Croatia. Three species have been removed from the rare birds list due to the increasing number of their observations. The list of rare bird taxa now includes 72 species, of which 5 are included in category C E, and 4 subspecies. Additional eleven species are treated as escapees (category E) and one as probable escapee (category D).
