RARE INSECTS OF THE OKA RESERVE RECOMMENDED FOR INCLUSION IN THE RED DATA BOOK OF THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION

Abstract

The paper presents data on nine rare insect species of the Oka State Nature Biosphere Reserve recommended for inclusion in the Red Data Book of the Russian Federation (Animals). These are Dytiscus latissimus, Carabus menetriesi, Calosoma sycophanta, Osmoderma barnabita, Protaetia speciosissima, P. fieberi, Bombus armeniacus, Parnopes grandior and Parnassius apollo. Carabus menetriesi, Osmoderma barnabita, Parnopes grandior are few in number. But these species are consistently observed in the Oka Reserve. Some species have not been registered in the Oka Reserve for a long time: Protaetia speciosissima and P. fieberi (either not since 1998), Bombus armeniacus (not since 1985), Parnassius apollo (not since 1998), Dytiscus latissimus (not since 2009). Calosoma sycophanta's existence is known only on the base of literature data.
