Abstract

A survey of coleopterous beetles and weevils was conducted at Deshna district, Qena Governorate, Egypt during two successive years from April 2018 to March 2020. This survey revealed the collection of about 47946 & 49246 individuals belonging to 27 families in each year. The most abundant families were Scarabeidae (15145 individuals representing 31.6% of the total catch). This family was collected from April to December, followed by Carabidae (13327 individuals being 27.8% of the total catch). Carabid beetles were caught almost all through the year from March to December. Elateridae was the least abundant (7335 individuals representing 15.3% of the total catch). Elaterid species were collected during March, April, June, July, August, September, October, November, and December in 2018-2019. Similar trend was observed in 2019-2020, since Scarabeidae was the most abundant (15292 individuals representing 31.1% of the total catch) followed by Carabidae (13493 individuals representing 27.5% of the total catch) and finally Elateridae (7764 individuals representing 15.8% of the total catch). The majority of coleopterus species surveyed in the present study were harmful to plants. Keywords: Survey, Coleoptera, beetles, weevils, Qena Governorate.
