Two calanoid species, Arctodiaptomus laticeps (Sars, 1863) and Eurytemora velox (Lilljeborg, 1853), are reported from the Danube River basin in Croatia. Our findings present the first record of A. laticeps and E. velox at the territory of Croatia. Both species were found in the lowland floodplain area during the spring-summer inundation throughout the years. Their occurrence in the waterbodies studied has not overlapped, and different environmental parameters characterized the periods of occurrence of the individual species. The existence of E. velox in this region seems to be permanent, whereas the appearance of A. laticeps is rather confounding.

Deux espèces de Calanoïdes, Arctodiaptomus laticeps (Sars, 1863) et Eurytemora velox (Lilljeborg, 1853) sont signalées du bassin du Danube en Croatie. Nos travaux présentent la première mention de A. laticeps et de E.velox sur le territoire de la Croatie. Les deux espèces ont été trouvées dans la zone de la plaine d’inondation au cours de l’inondation de printemps-été au cours des années. Leur présence dans les plans d’eau étudiés ne se chevauchent pas et différents paramètres environnementaux caractérisent les périodes de présence des espèces. L’existence de E. velox dans cette région semble permanente, tandis que l’apparition de A. laticeps est plutôt surprenante.
