| Abstract: | The paper presents a check list of the butterfly fauna (Rhopalocera: Lepidoptera) from Călimani National Park. The systematic list made after the actual key for identification, is accompanied by the frequency data from the investigated habitats and by the biogeographically characterization of species. The list compounds 50 species, included in 5 families: Hesperiidae, Pieridae, Lycaenidae, Nymphalidae and Papilionidae. The species diversity varies according to the type of investigated habitats. 11 species protected by national and international legislation were identified.
