Journal Title: Baltic Journal of Coleopterology - Year 2016, Vol 16, Issue 1

Abstract

The paper presents faunistic results for 50 species of ground beetles (Coleoptera: Carabidae) from different provinces of Iran. Poecilus (s.str.) festivus (Chaudoir, 1868) and Bembidion (Ocydromus) hiekei Muller-Motzfeld, 1986 are reported from Iran for the first time.
