Abstract

In this paper 5 species of cave-dwelling spiders of the genus Troglohyphantes are listed as new for the Croatian fauna. They are T. troglodytes (Kulczyñski, 1914), T. pugnax Deeleman-Reinhold, 1978, T. salax (Kulczyñski, 1914), T. sketi Deeleman-Reinhold, 1978 and T. subalpinus Thaler, 1967. All five species are known from neighboring countries. New localities are marked on the map and the ecological status is given for every species. With these five species the total number of Troglohyphantes taxa in Croatia has risen to 22 taxa.
