Abstract

Several new species of leafminers from the family Gracillariidae (Lepidoptera) have
been introduced to Europe where they have spread very quickly. The same situation
happend in Croatia. In this paper distribution, some biological and diagnostic characteristics
of new, invasive species in the Croatian leafminer fauna are described: Cameraria
ohridella, Phyllonorycter issikii, Phyllonorycter leucographella, Phyllonorycter robiniella,
Phyllonorycter platani, Parectopa robiniella. The results of this research present the first record
of Phyllonorycter issikii in Croatia. Spread of these species in Croatia and their intensity
of occurence has been very similar to the same pattern of spread and occurence in other
Europaean countries.
