Reed Bunting (Emberiza schoeniclus) is resident bird, regular passage migrant and winter visitor in Croatia. A lot of subspecies from Europe come in this region during migrations. Purpose of this work was to define which subspecies, and in what time of year, reside in Croatia, and also if they have morphological differences and what are their routes in the time of migration. Biometric research has been conducted at fish ponds Draganići, Vransko lake and delta of Neretva river, and three subspecies were recorded: E. s. schoeniclus, E. s. stresemanni i E. s. intermedia. All three subspecies showed gender dimorphism. Males were bigger than females, at least in two measured parameters. E. s. intermedia is resident subspecies in coastal Croatia and is not migrating. Subspecies E. s. stresemanni is both residental and winter visitor from northern areas. E. s. schoeniclus migrates in Croatia and stays from September to April or just passes our country on migrations. In wintertime, on all three sites most numerous subspecies was E. s. schoeniclus. In Draganići fish ponds females were outnumbered by males, who winter in northern parts of country so they can quickly return to nesting sites. Birds that winter or pass Croatia in migrations fly from northern, northeastern and middle Europe.
Močvarna strnadica (Emberiza schoeniclus) je stanarica, preletnica i zimovalica u Hrvatskoj. U Europi postoji velik broj podvrsta koje u vrijeme migracija dolaze u naše krajeve. Cilj ovog istraživanja je utvrditi koje podvrste i kada prebivaju u Hrvatskoj, da li se morfološki značajno razlikuju, te kakav im je smjer kretanja u sezoni migracija. Biometrijskim istraživanjima na ribnjacima Draganići, Vranskom jezeru i ušću Neretve zabilježene su tri podvrste: E .s. schoeniclus, E. s. stresemanni i E. s.intermedia. Sve tri podvrste pokazuju spolni dimorfizam. Mužjaci su veći od ženki u barem dva mjerena parametra. E. s.intermedia stanarica je primorske Hrvatske. Ova podvrsta nije selica. Podvrsta E. s. stresemanni u Hrvatskoj je prisutna tijekom cijele godine kao stanarica i zimi kao zimovalica iz sjevernijih krajeva. E .s. schoeniclus u Hrvatsku dolazi na zimovanje od rujna do travnja ili samo prelijeće preko našeg područja. U vrijeme zimovanja na sva tri lokaliteta najbrojnija je podvrsta E .s. schoeniclus. Na ribnjacima Draganići u vrijeme zimovanja prisutan je veći broj mužjaka koji zimuju sjevernije kako bi se ranije vratili na gnijezdilišta. Ptice koje zimuju ili prelijeću preko Hrvatske sele iz sjeverne, sjevero-istočne i srednje Europe.
