Saproxylic beetle assemblages in Osijek parks

A study was carried out in two parks, Perivoj kralja Tomislava and Perivoj kralja Petra Krešimira IV, in the period from June to August 2017. In all, 26 saproxylic beetle species listed in 14 families were identified. From these, three species are listed in the European Red List of Saproxylic beetles, two species as least concern and one as near threatened according to the IUCN. The family Nitidulidae was the most abundant followed by Curculionidae, Elateridae, Carabidae and Tenebrionidae. According to the Sørensen index, a similarity between these two locations was established depending on the beetle fauna present. This research showed the presence of E. ferrugineus in urban parks.
