Abstract: 
The molecular diversity of brown trout, Salmo trutta Linnaeus, 1758, has been poorly studied in Croatia. The control region of mitochondrial DNA (CR mtDNA) is in addition to other molecular markers a reliable for identifying phylogenetic lineages (haplogroups) and haplotypes of brown trout. Based on analyses of the control region of mitochondrial DNA several major brown trout phylogenetic lineages were identified of which the Danubian (DA) haplotypes, though not all, are considered native to Croatian rivers belonging to the Danube basin. The introduction of allochthonous haplotypes into natural streams seriously threatens the genetic diversity of this species. Therefore, the aim of this study was to map brown trout populations inhabiting Croatian rivers of the Danube River basin and to investigate their molecular diversity and phylogeographic patterns of the established haplotypes.
