Abstract

The sampling of insects (Insecta) during pitch-dark nights in the middle of the Adriatic Sea during 2009 resulted in the recording of 12 species from the Diptera order and 2 species from the Lepidoptera order. The determined species were classified into the following families: Syrphidae, Drosophilidae, Muscidae, Calliphoridae and Scatophagidae (Diptera), Nymphalidae and Sphingidae (Lepidoptera).
