Abstract
The 23 species of buprestids from 11 genera, 9 tribes and three subfamilies were registered in the territory of Baikal Siberia and Northern Priamur’e. All material used in this study is stored in the entomological collection of The Core Facilities Center “Bioresource Center” at Siberian Institute of Plant Physiology and Biochemistry SB RAS (Irkutsk, Russia). The buprestids with wide ranges (Holarctic and transpalaearctic) prevail and their part is 43,5 %. Faunas of buprestids of the Republic of Buryatia and Zabaykalsky Krai were most similar (the Serensen – Chekanovsky coefficient of similarity is equal to 0,8). Two species (Anthaxia psittacina and Chrysobothris amurensis)were recorded in the fauna of Baikal Siberia for the first time. Five species (Anthaxia quadripunctata, Buprestis strigosa, B. haemorrhoidalis, Chrysobothris chrysostigma and Phaenops guttulatus) have high frequency of occurrence and their habitations were registered on burned-out forest areas. The Holarctic Melanophila acuminata has low frequency of occurrence, however this buprestid damages coniferous and leaf-bearing trees. Besides, M. acuminata is the mass species on burned-out forest areas. Chalcophora mariana has low frequency of occurrence too. This species is not only the technical pest, but also his is capable to do physiological damage to trees. The maps of places of gather of 23 buprestids species in territories of the Baikal Siberia and Northern Priamur’e were created for the first time.
