An updated checklist of Croatian Tachinidae (Diptera)

Abstract

We have listed 307 species of Tachinidae presently known from the country. Our checklist contains data from all available sources cited below the species names. New material consisting of 100 species has been studied to support the literature. There are still 29 doubtful records, as well as 3 doubtful taxa, mentioned by old references, the validity of which needs to be confirmed; these records are reviewed apart from the main species list.Utvrdili smo 307 vrsta muha gusjeničarki (Tachinidae) trenutno poznatih za Hrvatsku. Naš ažurirani popis sadrži podatke iz svih raspoloživih izvora koje citiramo nakon naziva vrste. Kao dopunu literaturnim navodima analiziran je novosakupljeni materijal koji sadrži 100 vrsta. Prisutno je 29 dvojbenih nalaza, kao i 3 taksonomski dvojbene svojte koje se navode u starim referencama, a čiju valjanost još treba potvrditi; ti nalazi se obrađuju odvojeno od glavnog popisa vrsta.

First Record of <em>Nemorilla floralis</em> (Fallén 1810) (Diptera, Tachinidae) Parasitism on Box Tree Moth – <em>Cydalima perspectalis</em> (Walker 1859) (Lepidoptera, Crambidae) Larvae

“…Nemorilla floralis is native to the Palearctic region, where it is reported to be widely distributed in central and western Europe and Scandinavia. Nemorilla floralis presence has been confirmed in Croatia [17] and neighboring countries too [18]. It is an endoparasitoid of larvae of almost twenty moth species but so far there is no record of its parasitism on C. perspectalis [19].…”
