Abstract

Cortodera flavimana is a Pontic species which occurs from Austria and Hungary, through Serbia and south-eastern Europe and Turkey. It was not previously known from Croatia. Two specimens were found, one in Cerna (E Croatia, in 2008) and one in Okuje (NW Croatia, in 2013), raising the number of known Cortodera species in Croatia to five; the other being C. humeralis, C. femorata, C. holosericea and C. villosa. These records represent an expansion of the species’ known range and indicate the possibility of new records, at least in Croatia, and the need for further research into longhorn beetles in the country.
