The paper describes species of the following orders: Homoptera, Heteroptera, Coleoptera, Lepidoptera, Hymenoptera and mites (Acarina) of Tetranychidae and Eriophyidae families. Species regularly appearing in orchards are described, and species that have been undetected in Croatian orchards till now. As new in orchards are Homoptera: Phylloxera pyri Chol. - Lepidoptera: Coleophora coracipenella (Hübner, 1796) (Coleophoridae): Cnephasia longana (Haworth, 1811) (Tortricidae); Agrotis segetum (Denis & Schiffermüller, 1755) (Noctuidae); Smerinthus ocellatus (Linnaeus, 1758) (Sphingidae) - Hymenoptera: Allacantus cinctus (Linnaeus, 1758), Priophorus morio (Lepeletier, 1823), Nematus leucotrochus Hartig, 1837 and N. ribessii (Scopoli, 1763), (Tenthredinidae) and mites Eotetranynchus carpini Oudemans, 1931, Panonychus citri McGregor (Tetranychidae) and Aculus schlechtendali Nalepa, 1890 (Eriophyidae).
