Altogether 468 beetle species from 51 families were confirmed. The regular and most numerous occurrence has 49 species (10.47%). All data on the occurrence, trophic groups and bionomics of both adults and larvae are presented in table.

Larvae were found in a forest of the Scots pines (Pinus sylvestris) in the Záhorie Protected Landscape Area.

There are 149 species of animals reported in Slovakia, which are listed in annexes 2 or 4 of the Habitat Directive (10 species are considered to be extinct in the territory of Slovakia. There are 105 species and subspecies of Slovak fauna listed in annex 2 (14 of them are species of priority interest and 2 species are nor known from Slovakia recently. There are 114 species and subspecies occurring in Slovakia which are listed in Annex 4 of the Habitat Directive.

The differences between lepidoptera taxocenoses in individual oak stands were analyzed. A total of 96 species and 2,140 individuals were found. Species abundance peaked in May, while number of species and species diversity reached the highest values from April to May and from April to June, respectively. Abundance showed two notable peaks in flush feeders and in late summer feeders. Lepidoptera taxocenosis in the study plot Horný háj (isolated forest, high density of ants) differed significantly from all other taxocenoses according to Sörensen’s index of species similarity, species diversity, analysis of similarity on the basis of permutation and pairwise tests (ANOSIM), ...
