The paper presented a checlist of publising species of Vietnam longhom beede fauna of the subfaimly Cerambycinae with local and world distnbution provided. Of the total of 259 cerambycid species belonging to 88 genera and 18 tribes, seven diverse tribes are Clytini (74 species), Callichromini (41 species), Cerambycini (35 species), Molorchini (19 species), Callidiopini (18 species), Methiini (13 species) and Cleomenini (11 species). Keywords: Coleoptera, Cerambycidae, Cerambycinae, checklist, distribution, Vietnam. INTRODUCTION North Viemam. Mai Phu Quy et al. (1981) [56] also recorded 52 species from the northern part The Cerambycinae is a subfamily belonging of Vietnam. Recentiy, from 2005 to 2011, there to the family Cerambycidae, the largest family were 169 the longhom beetles were recorded of Coleoptera. The cerambycids are commonly from three provinces Quang Tri, Thua Thien- known as longhomed beeties, longicoms, Hue and Quang Nam, 112 species recorded in capricoms, round-headed borers, timber beetles the North of central Vietnam, 179 species or goat beetles. The representatives of the recorded from four provinces Kon Tum, Gia family Cerambicidae have many varieties of Lai, Dak Lak and Dak Nong, 2005 (Hoang Vu shape, coloration and ornamentation as well as Tm et al. 2005, 2006, 2009; Ta Huy Thinh et al. with the body size from 2.5 mm to 200 mm. 2005) [33-35, 98]. The longhom beetles of the The subfamily comprises about 20,000 species subfamily Cerambycinae from Vietnam could occur through almost every part of the world, also be found in several foreign authors as i.e. ft"om sea level to montane sites as high as Holzschuh (1989, 1991, 1992, 1995, 1998, 4,200 m elevation.

But up to the present time, the taxonomy and systematics of the Taxonomic interest in the family has been longhomed beetles of the subfanily fairly consistent in the past century, however, Cerambycinae are sudied poorly. taxonomic research on the longhom beetles from Vietnam had been almost absent until recently. The first work of the longhom beetles MATERIALS AND METHODS in Indochina (including Laos, Cambodia and The specimens of the longhom beetles were Vietnam) was published by Fairmaire (1896) collected in several surveys orginized by [16] and Vitalis de Salvaza (1919) [102], the entomologists of Institute of Ecology and later authors recorded 348 species from Biological Resources (lEBR).

SCARAB BEETLES IN HUMAN CULTURE BRETT C. RATCLIFFE Systematics Research Collections W-436 Nebraska Hall University of Nebraska Lincoln, NE 68588-0514, U.S.A. [email protected] Abstract The use of scarab beetles (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae) by primarily pre- and non-industrial peoples throughout the world is reviewed. These uses consist of (1) religion and folklore, (2) folk medicine, (3) food, and (4) regalia and body ornamentation. The use of scarabs in religion or cosmology, once widespread in ancient Egypt, exists only rarely today in other cultures. Scarabs have a minor role in folk medicine today although they may have been more important in the past. The predominant utilization of these beetles today, and probably in the past as well, is as food with emphasis on the larval stage. Lastly, particularly large or brightly colored scarabs (or their parts) are used (mostly in the New World) to adorn the body or as regalia.
