Sažetak

Surveys for mantids were undertaken at 9 sites, located along the northern and southern coasts and in the interior of Pelješac Peninsula, southern Croatia. Sweep nettings and visual observations were carried out from 27 July 2013 till 8 August 2013. Five mantid species from four genera were observed, including Ameles cf. decolor (Charpentier, 1825), A. spallanzania (Rossi, 1792), Iris oratoria (Linnaeus, 1758), Mantis religiosa Linnaeus, 1758, and Empusa fasciata Brullé, 1832. The first exact records of the Mediterranean Mantis, I. oratoria in continental Croatia are reported. The need for a detailed study on the sympatric distribution of A. decolor and A. heldreichi in Croatia is addressed.
