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. The variability of Omophron (s.str.) rotundatum Chaudoir, 1852 in a population from South Iran is discussed.
