Some Coleoptera (Insecta) Characteristics of the Main Types of Habitats of Galichya Gora Reserve
The highest percentage of the predominant Coleoptera species density in the study area has been recorded mostly in environments with decomposing organic debris (dripping birch tree sap, animal remains, fungi, myxomycetes etc.), whereas the lowest percentage - in environments with more stable conditions (soil, plant litter, turf, surface soil, grass and tree crowns). The highest percentage of the predominant species of wintering beetles has been recorded in wintering locations least suitable for most species. During the growing season beetle species with a wide ecological valence are not to be found in water reservoirs, whereas on the ground and in the grass a considerable prevalence of Coleoptera groups with a narrow ecological valence is observed. However, in most habitat of vegetation period and in all winter habitats proportion Coleoptera species with broad ecological valence is predominant.
