Abstract

Three new noctuid species for Croatian fauna were found during entomological research in the lower part of the Neretva River and on Mt. Biokovo and Mt.Velebit: Xylocampa areola (Esper, 1789) (Neretva), Eurois occulta (Linnaeus, 1758) (Velebit Mt.) and Euxoa decora (Denis & Schiffermüller, 1775) (Biokovo Mt.). A brief faunistic review is given for all three species, as well as their biological and zoogeographical characteristics. The distribution of the genus Euxoa Hübner (1821) in Croatia is shown.
