Abstract: The whirligig beetle Gyrinus natator (Linnaeus, 1758) is newly recorded from a
stream in the Břehyně-Pecopala National Nature Reserve (North Bohemia), which
confirms the occurrence of this species in the Czech Republic. The main features
according to which it can be reliably distinguished from the very similar
species Gyrinus substriatus Stephens, 1828 are presented. Its habitat
requirements in Central Europe are discussed. Gyrinus natator is newly
classified as critically endangered in the Red List of Endangered Species of the
Czech Republic.
