Entomologia Croatica 2006/1-2
Entomologia Croatica, Volume 10, double issue 1–2 from 2006, is a Croatian scientific journal dedicated to the study of insects, including their biology, ecology, distribution, and conservation.
Entomologia Croatica is a scientific journal published in Zagreb by the Croatian Entomological Society. This issue spans 148 pages and features original scientific papers, review articles, critiques of professional literature, and reports from scientific conferences. It is dedicated to Academician Milan Maceljski on the occasion of his 80th birthday.
Key topics include research on the distribution of the butterfly Polyommatus thersites in Croatia, the spread of the Asian tiger mosquito in Istria, the flight dynamics of aphids—pests affecting urban greenery—and studies on dragonflies in the Međimurje region. The issue also covers the potential for biological weed control using insects, the biology of predatory true bugs, and the Croatian endemic beetle Otiorhynchus alutaceus vittatus.
The journal includes reports on European entomological and Croatian biological congresses, as well as reviews of professional publications. The cover features a distinctive red-and-white design depicting the Hemaris croatica (a species of clearwing moth)—the emblem of the Croatian Entomological Society.
This publication serves as a valuable record of the development of Croatian entomology, biodiversity research, and nature conservation. It is intended for entomologists, biologists, agronomists, students, and collectors of natural history literature.
