摘要:The present paper deals with the distribution of Araneus alsine (Walckenaer, 1802) (syn.: Epeira alsine Walckenaer, 1805; E. lutea C. L. Koch, 1837) in Croatia and its habitats based on literature data, museum collections and field findings. The spider A. alsine was captured in Croatia’s most diverse and oldest peatland, the Đon Močvar Botanical Reserve at Blatuša. The biology, ecology and threat status of A. alsine are discussed.
