Summary/Abstract: The author of this paper has collected and analyzed the corpus of microtoponyms in the Municipality of Jelsa on the island of Hvar. The corpus of 870 microtoponyms is the result of the field research conducted during 2012 and 2013 as well as of the examination of cadastral and municipal maps. These microtoponyms have been analyzed structurally concerning their formative patterns and syntactic content. At the end of the paper, the list of the analyzed corpus of microtoponyms is presented. Given the fact that recent papers dealing with the subject of microtoponymy are rare, the aim of this paper is to complement the toponomastic map of Croatia by collecting as well as analyzing the corpus of microtoponyms.
