Abstract:

The article presents the results of research conducted by the authors on the territory of the Ile-Alatau State National Natural Park in 2020-2021. Research works are devoted to the fauna, biology and ecology of beetles or beetles on the territory of this natural park. Coleoptera are the largest group of insects, which is of great practical importance. They are distributed on the territory of the IleAlatau GNPP. Most of the beetle species are zoophages, and phytophages also predominate. When collecting the material, standard entomological methods were used-collection with an entomological filter, collection with an artificial light source, manual collection, etc. As a result of the conducted research, 47 species from 10 families of the coleoptera order were collected on the territory of the Ile-Alatau State National Natural Park: Meloidae, Curculionidae, Buprestidae, Chrysomelidae (out of 8 species, 17%), Tenebrionidae, Cerambycidae, Scarabaeidae (of 3 species, 7%), Coccinellidae, Silphidae, Сarabidae (of 2 species, 4%). In this order, predatory beetles are nutritionally related: representatives of the family Coccinellidae, Carabidae, the remaining species from 8 families (Meloidae, Curculionidae, Buprestidae, Chrysomelidae, Tenebrionidae, Cerambycidae, Scarabaeidae, Silphidae) are phytophages. Coleoptera are divided into zoophages (4 species), phytophages (41 species), coprophages (1 species), saprophages (1 species) by nutritional connection. Coleoptera on the territory of the Ile-Alatau State National Natural Park differ into chortobionts (27), dendrobionts (17 species), herpetobionts (3 species). Beetles in the park are ecologically mesophilic species.

Key words: Coleoptera, Ile-Alatau State National Natural Park.

Introduction:

The Ile-Alatau State National Natural Park was established in 1996 in the Karasai, Talgar, Enbekshikazakh districts of the Almaty region. The area is 202 thousand hectares. The territory of the park is rich in wildlife, including a large number of invertebrates, which have not yet been fully studied, so this study is relevant. Solid bodies are the most numerous group of insects and are of great practical importance. Beetles are widely distributed throughout the world. The body sizes of the representatives of the group vary widely (from 0.-1.0 mm to 171 mm). Many species of beetles are predators (polyphagous and domesticated), as well as herbivorous (phytophagous) species (Lera [1992]).
