Coleoptera, Carabidae, Ground beetles, Ilam, Lorestan, IranAbstract
Ground beetles are a large group of insects, many of which are important bio-indicators and have significant role in biological control of agricultural and forest pests. The fauna of these beneficial insects was studied in two Iranian provinces including, Ilam and Lorestan. Totally 64 species and subspecies from 32 genera and 14 tribes belonging to nine subfamilies were collected from different regions of the mentioned provinces.
