“…We concentrated on catalogues and summarising papers of saproxylic beetle families, but new descriptions of species and papers presenting species records were also analysed. A number of published works dealing with a few saproxylic beetle families in Israel were used for the analysis: Halperin and Damoiseau (1980) for Bostrychidae, Halperin and Argaman (2000) and Volkovitsh (2004) for Buprestidae, Sama et al (2010) and Halperin and Holzschuh (1993) for Cerambycidae, Gerstmeier et al (1999) for Cleridae, Halperin and Holzschuh (1984) for Scolytidae. An unpublished checklist of the Elateridae in Israel (Natural history collection of Tel Aviv University), together with a paper on oak-inhabiting beetles in Turkey (Jansson & Coskun, 2008) and our own records were used to select saproxylic click-beetle species.…”

The East Mediterranean region is a global biodiversity hotspot for vertebrates and plants. Although oaks (Quercus) are the dominant tree species in semi‐natural Mediterranean forests, the insect species richness associated with East Mediterranean oak forest has been insufficiently studied. Species richness and composition of the saproxylic beetle assemblage, including its seasonal variation, of a stand of old oaks (Quercus calliprinos) in northern Israel was investigated. Flight‐interception traps were used to sample beetles over a period of 2 years. In addition, a set of pitfall traps was placed in the trunk hollows in the second year of the study. Fifty‐two saproxylic beetle species were found associated with oaks in the field study. Among them, two saproxylic click‐beetle species were previously unknown to science, and eight species represent new records for Israel. Both the number of species and the number of individuals showed two distinct phenological peaks during the year. A preliminary list of saproxylic beetles inhabiting oaks in Israel was prepared and biogeographical distribution, host plants, habitat guild, and activity period are presented for each species. Together with our own data, the literature survey conducted for 19 beetle families established that at least 124 saproxylic beetle species are associated with oaks in Israel while about 40% of them are unique to the Levantine region. As most localities with old‐growth oak forest structures are small and isolated, ongoing management should have high priority despite the fact that these forests already receive protection.

This study has been carried out in Datça, Fethiye, Seydikemer and Akhisar, Kula localities of Turkey during the years 2014-2016. In this study, 127 insect genus/species belonging to 25 different families of Coleoptera order were determined. Anthonomus amygdali, and A. pyri feed on buds and flowers, Polydrusus quadriticollis, P. ponticus species feed on leaves, especially by consuming the edges of the leaves. Clytra novempunctata, Labidostomis longimana, L. rufa, Smaragdina limbata mainly feed on new shoots and leaves. Cerambyx carinatus, C. welensii, Prionus coriarius feed on wood tissues. Tatianaerhynchites aequatus and Rhynchites smyrnensis are mostly found on the fruit and feed on fruit on which they feed, and cause glue on fruit surface. It has been determined that Tropinota hirta and Oxythyrea cinctella feed on flowers and pollen. It was observed that Bostrichus capucinus and Scobicia chevrieri feed on wood tissues, Teratolytta dives and Eolydus atripes feed on leaves while Orsodacne variabilis feeds on flower, anther, filament and ovary organs.This study determined for the first time that B. capucinus, S. chevrieri, C. carinatus, C. welensii, P. coriarius, C. novempunctata, C. numidicus, Scolytus intricatus, Scolytus kirschii, T. dives, E. atripes and O. variabilis species feed on almond orchards. Apart from these species, all of the identified species were detected only and did not show any biological activity.
