Pitfall traps were installed along an altitudinal transect in five habitat types ranging from 1550 m to 2170 m a.s.l. in the period from 6 October 1998 to 12 October 1999. A total of 360 specimens from 25 species were recorded. Species numbers were high in alpine scree and rock habitats (12 species) and low in subalpine spruce areas (3 species). The observed carabid beetle assemblage is typical for the region and these habitats. Very rare and extremely rare species reach re- markable proportions with respect to species (64 %) and individuals (77 %). Seven species are exclusively distributed in the alpine zone. Carabus fabricii, Oreonebria austriaca, Pteros- tichus kokeilii and Trechus pinkeri occur in Germany only in the Berchtesgaden Alps. Moreover, P. kokeilii is the single German carabid beetle species that shows a true boreoalpine distribution pattern. Thus, from a carabidological point of view, the Berchtesgaden Alps constitute an area of exceptional value among the high mountain regions in Germany. Alpine grasslands and alpine rock and scree habitats harbour the highest numbers of rare and endange- red species. Two thirds of red listed species (nine out of 14) were exclusively recorded in such habitats. Climatic change poses severe threats to dispersal limited, alpine species with special habitat require- ments (e.g., O. austriaca, P. kokeilii, T. pinkeri). The predicted uplift in vegetation zones may challenge the survival of several species in the region. Germany's international responsibility for the conservation of Leistus montanus is subject to ongoing debate. Special responsibility for Pterostichus panzeri is recognized only for isolated populations outside the Alps. Germany has a high responsibillity for the conservation of Trichotichnus laevicollis.

Ekológia (Bratislava), Vol. 35, No. 4, p. 340–349, 2016. Communities of epigeic beetles were studied using pitfall trapping on 10 plots with the different stage of decline and clear-cut plots without coarse woody debris. Species richness (number of all species, S), total species diversity as the Shannon–Wiener’s index (H) and equitability (e) were calcu- lated in the DBreleve. The Ward’s method of hierarchical agglomerative classification with Euclidean distance was used for the differentiation of the communities on the plots. Species data for this analyse were represented by logarithm-transformed activities [log(x+1)]. The single-factor analysis of vari- ance (ANOVA) was used for statistical testing of differences in structural parameters (e.g. species richness and diversity) amongst distinguished groups of the plots. The species diversity and activity differs on glades without trees and coarse woody debris.

    ©Gesellschaft für Angewandte Carabidologie e.V. download www.laufkaefer.de Verantwortlichkeit für den Schutz und Raumbedeut- samkeit von Laufkäfern in Deutschland: Taxa welcher Lebensräume Deutschlands sind betroffen?1 Horst Gruttke 1 Gewidmet Prof. Dr. Gerd Müller-Motzfeld Abstract: Responsibility for Conservation and Space Importance of ground beetles in Germany: Taxa of which Habitats are concerned? – Concepts of responsibility and space importance have been combined by Müller-Motzfeld , Trautner and Bräunicke in 2004. Both concepts are linked to the tasks deri- ving from the Rio Convention on Biological Diversity. Responsibility of Germany for the conservation of organisms consist of 2 main categories (“especially high responsible”: “!!” and “highly responsible”: “!”) and 1 category for highly isolated outposts “(!)”. Space importance comprises 3 categories: endemic in Germany (E), central European distribution (rz) and wider European distribution (re). A Swiss approach to derive reasonable threshold levels of areal proportion adequate for assigning national responsibility from a so called “expectation value” for a country and some modifications including propor- tions of “suitable habitat” as reference are discussed. In Germany temperate woodland and flood-plains or estuaries had been originally dominating, comprising together about 10 % of these habitat types in Europe. Among taxa with high conservation responsibility, species of woodlands and humid habitats are dominating as well, but species of meadows and xero-thermic or mountain habitats are listed, too. The distribution of carabid taxa with high space importance is similar but with some significant differences. It comprises more alpine and mountain species, particularly those from block and rubble-slopes. Arguments for a revision of existing lists are presented, Carabus auronitens being an exemplary candidate for integration into the list of taxa for which Germany bears a high conservation responsibility.

In many countries, they are well established for environmental impact assessment, but even in the well-studied Central European fauna, species identification can be very difficult. A comprehensive and taxonomically well-curated DNA barcode library could remedy this deficit and could also link hundreds of years of traditional knowledge with next generation sequencing technology. However, such a beetle library is missing to date. This study provides the globally largest DNA barcode reference library for Coleoptera for 15 948 individuals belonging to 3514 well-identified species (53% of the German fauna) with representatives from 97 of 103 families (94%). This study is the first comprehensive regional test of the efficiency of DNA barcoding for beetles with a focus on Germany. Sequences ≥500 bp were recovered from 63% of the specimens analysed (15 948 of 25 294) with short sequences from another 997 specimens.

    Communities of epigeic beetles in the montane spruce forests of different decline stages in the Modrava area (Bohemian Forest) Jaroslav Boháč 1), Karel Matějka 2) 1) Alšova 837, 373 41 Hluboká nad Vltavou, Czech Republic 2) IDS, Na Komořsku 2175/2a, 143 00 Praha 4, Czech Republic Introduction The most important challenge of the European forestry is a sustainable farming with both the feasible wood production and encouragement of non-production functions of forest including biodiversity (LINDENMAYER ET AL. 2000). The majority of virginal forests in submontane and montane areas of the central Europe was cutted down and changed on the spruce monocultures (RÖHLE 1991; PRETZCH 1996; VACEK ET AL. 2009). These even- aged stands have the high productivity but they are very sensitive to weather conditions (especially wind storms) and insects outbreaks (ROTHE ET BORCHERT 2003). In forests, competition between humans and saproxylic beetles has a long history (GROVE 2002). The European spruce bark beetle Ips typographus is considered to be the most serious pest species of mature spruce stands, mainly of Norway spruce (Picea abies), throughout Eurasia (GRODZKI ET AL. 2004; WERMELINGER 2004). Among all types of forest damage from 1950 to 2000 in Europe, 2–9 million m3 of timber per year were destroyed by bark beetles, mainly I. typographus (SCHELHAAS ET AL. 2003). The preference of this species for mature spruce trees increases the economic impact of its damage. With regard to these facts, it is not surprising that most published research on bark beetles deals with damage and prevention of outbreaks in commercial forests (ERIKSSON ET AL.

A total of 27 species of ground beetles (Carabidae) were collected using pitfall traps with vinegar. Important is finding of Carabus irregularis and Pterostichus selmanni roubali which are considered to be relict species of old-growth forests. Saproxylic beetles were collected using flight interception traps with salt solution. A total of 112 species belonging to 30 families were collected. 11 of these species are reported in the Czech Red list of endangered species. Cryptophagus corticinus is considered new in the Czech Republic, Cryptophagus falcozi is new in Bohemia, and Xylosandrus germanus is new in the Šumava Mountains. Critically endangered stag beetle Ceruchus chrysomelinus and very rare click beetle Ampedus karpathicus were found by additional hand collecting. These findings reveal conservation value of the studied site which host rich communities of saproxylic and epigeic species. Some of the species are known as old-growth forest indicators.

THE FAUNA OF SOIL BEETLES (EDAPHIC COLEOPTERA) AS A SENSITIVE INDICATOR OF EVOLUTION AND CONSERVATION OF ECOSYSTEMS. A STUDY ON THE ALTITUDINAL GRADIENT IN THE RODNEI MOUNTAINS BIOSPHERE RESERVE (THE CARPATHIANS) Eugen Nitzu, Augustin Nae and Ionuţ Popa „Emil Racovitza“ Speleological Institute, 050711 Bucharest, Romania Abstract — Study of the soil beetle fauna as an ecological indicator could be relevant con- sidering that it is very well-represented in all types of terrestrial ecosystems, with species belonging to all trophic categories (predators, scavengers/decomposers, phytophagous) and methods of sampling the soil fauna are very accurate. The present studies were carried out in the largest standard protected area of the Carpathians – the Pietrosul Rodnei Biosphere Reserve. Species diversity was estimated using the jackknife technique and the S* method, the latter of which is based on a log-normal fitting curve (Ludwig and Reynolds, 1988). A total of 103 soil beetle species (belonging to 21 families) were collected in habitats from alpine, subalpine, and montane zones. The estimated species richness is given for each sampled zone. The observed number of species exceeds 60% of the estimated number of species for all investigated areas. The species richness and structure of the soil beetle fauna exhibit evident differences (statistically tested) in forests in different phases of development. The cluster and correspondence analyses performed for alpine, subalpine, and montane forested habitats showed an altitudinal gradient in the distribution of species and faunal differences between forests in different development phases.

    JOURNAL OF FOREST SCIENCE, 50, 2004 (10): 456–463 The ground beetles (Coleoptera: Carabidae) of forest altitudinal zones of the eastern part of the Krušné hory Mts. E. KULA, L. PURCHART Faculty of Forestry and Wood Technology, Mendel University of Agriculture and Forestry, Brno, Czech Republic ABSTRACT: By means of Sörensen’s index and Renkonen’s number, the differences in species composition and abundance of the ground beetles (Carabidae) were specified in 5 forest altitudinal zones (3rd, 5th–8th) and also the faunal similarity in the linking-up forest altitudinal zones. The entry of some species (Carabus coriaceus, Carabus violaceus, Pterostichus niger and Pterostichus oblongopunctatus) into higher altitudes was much more marked than is mentioned in hitherto published information. The objective of the present study was to explore the potential use of the ground beetles as an ancillary component of the geobiocoenological typological system.

  • Monoculture and Mixture-Planting of Non-Native Douglas Fir Alters
    Biodiversity and Conservation (2021) 30:1479–1499 https://doi.org/10.1007/s10531-021-02155-1 ORIGINAL PAPER Monoculture and mixture‑planting of non‑native Douglas fr alters species composition, but promotes the diversity of ground beetles in a temperate forest system Peter Kriegel1 · Dragan Matevski2 · Andreas Schuldt2 Received: 7 September 2020 / Revised: 11 January 2021 / Accepted: 9 March 2021 / Published online: 23 March 2021 © The Author(s) 2021 Abstract Planting non-native tree species, like Douglas fr in temperate European forest systems, is encouraged to mitigate efects of climate change. However, Douglas fr monocultures often revealed negative efects on forest biota, while efects of mixtures with native tree species on forest ecosystems are less well understood. We investigated efects of three tree species (Douglas fr, Norway spruce, native European beech), on ground beetles in temperate for- ests of Germany. Beetles were sampled in monocultures of each tree species and broadleaf- conifer mixtures with pitfall traps, and environmental variables were assessed around each trap. We used linear mixed models in a two-step procedure to disentangle efects of envi- ronment and tree species identity on ground beetle abundance, species richness, functional diversity and species assemblage structure. Contradictory to our expectations, ground beetle abundance and functional diversity was highest in pure Douglas fr stands, while tree mixtures showed intermediate values between pure coniferous and pure beech stands. The main drivers of these patterns were only partially dependent on tree species identity, which highlights the importance of structural features in forest stands. However, our study revealed distinct shifts in assemblage structure between pure beech and pure Douglas fr stands, which were only partially eased through mixture planting.
