Abstract
The conformal anomaly for spinors and scalars on an N-dimensional hyperbolic space is calculated explicitly, by using zeta-function regularization techniques and the Selberg trace formula. In the case of conformally invariant spinors and scalars the results are very much related with those corresponding to an N-dimensional sphere.Keywords
