| Abstract | ||
| The fauna of ground beetles (Carabidae) in Alborz province were studied in 2016. The beetles were collected either directly or using pitfall and optical traps from rangelands. The first visit to the traps was on the fourth week of April and then every two weeks until the end of August. In June and June due to the overheating of the air, the collecting was done every ten days. In this study 26 species belonging to 17 genus and 9 subfamilies were collected. Among them 6 species are reported for the first time from Alburz province that marked by asterisk as follow: Calomera fischeri fischeri (Adams, 1817)*, Calomera sturmi (Menetries, 1832), Cylindera (Cylindera) germanica germanica (Linnaeus, 1758), Scarites (Parallelomorphus) terricola terricola Bonelli, 1813*, Distichus (Distichus) planus Bonelli, 1813, Brachinus (Brachynolomus) explodens (Duftschmid, 1812)*, Bembidion (Nepha) menetriesii Kolenati, 1845, Bembidion (Peryphus) obscurellum turanicum Csiki, 1928, Bembidion (Peryphanes) dalmatinum haupti Reitter, 1908, Bembidion (Peryphus) subcostatum subcostatum (Motschulsky, 1850)*, Bembidion (Ocydromus) siculum durudense Marggi & Huber, 1999, Bembidion (Nepha) caucasicus (Motschulsky, 1844), Perileptus (Perileptus) areolatus areolatus (Creutzer, 1799), Deltomerus (Deltomerus) davatchii Morvan, 1970, Lionychus (Lionychus) orientalis K.Daniel, 1901, Chlaenius (Chlaeniellus) laetiusculus Chaudoir, 1856, Chlaenius (Chlaeniellus) vestitus Paykull, 1790, Harpalus (Harpalus) oblitus oblitus Dejean, 1829*, Harpalus (Harpalus) distinguendus (Duftschmid, 1812), Harpalus (Harpalus) affinis (Schrank, 1781), Harpalus (Pseudoophonus) rufipes (Degeer, 1774), Pterostichus (Pseudomaseus) fuscicornis (Reiche & Saulcy, 1855), Amara (Amara) aenea (DeGeer, 1774), Agonum (Olisares) lugens (Duftschmid, 1812)*, Anchomenus (Anchomenus) dorsalis (Pontoppidan, 1763), Calathus (Calathus) syriacus Chaudoir, 1863. | ||
