Summary:A less known decapod species Herbstia condyliata (Fabricius, 1787) has been recorded for the very first time in waters off the Slovenian coast, which is the northernmost locality for this species in the Adriatic Sea. The species is considered rare in the eastern Mediterranean; however, it is apparently common in the Adriatic Sea, where it is distributed from southern Dalmatia to the Gulf of Trieste.Original Abstract: Una specie meno nota di crostacei decapodi, Herbstia condyliata (Fabricius, 1787), e stata trovata per la prima volta nelle acque al largo della costa Slovena, il che corrisponde alla localita piu settentrionale per questa specie nel mare Adriatico. La specie e considerata rara nel Mediterraneo orientale, per quanto la sua presenza risulti apparentemente comune nel mare Adriatico, dove la si trova dalla Dalmazia meridionale al Golfo di Trieste. Manj znana rakovica Herbstia condyliata je bila prvic zabelezena v slovenskem delu Jadranskega morja, kar je obenem tudi njena najsevernejsa lokaliteta v Jadranskem morju. Ceprav naj bi bila ta vrsta redka v vzhodnem Sredozemlju, kaze, da je Jadranskem morju razmeroma obicajna in jo najdemo od juzne Dalmacije pa vse do Trzaskega zaliva.
