Sažetak
In this paper we present the current known distribution and status of Rhinolophus ferrumequinum in Croatia. Distribution, size and status of maternity and winter colonies is presented and discussed in relation to different aspects of biology (altitude, temperature requirements etc.). Overall and regional population estimates are calculated for this species considering the most recent population data. We also present causes of threat and make a proposal for further research, monitoring and conservation measures for greater horseshoe bat in Croatia.
