Abstract
The article presents the results of field studies on the species composition of the order of Hemiptera (Heteroptera) on the territory of the Zhongar-Alatau State National Natural Park from May to August 2022. The research was carried out in the branches of the Zhongar-Alatau State National Natural Park of the Lepsinsky branch (Zhalanash, Agynykaty, Zhasylkol, Chernaya Rechka gorges), the Sarkand branch (Akshunak, Sarkan gorges) and the Alakol branch (Kokzhar Gorge). Insects were collected with an entomological air net by mowing, catching with a soil trap, small insects with an exhauster and a night artificial light source. The study of fauna, biology and ecology of insects was carried out by route studies and methods of stationary observation. The article provides brief information about the habitats, biological and ecological features of each species. As a result of the study, 30 species of hemiptera belonging to 9 families were identified on the territory of the Zhongar-Alatau State National Natural Park. The family of Pentatomidae (8 species), the family of Miridae (6 species), the family of Lygaeidae (4 species), of the remaining 6 families, only 1-3 species have been identified. The hemiptera of the Zhongar-Alatau SNNP are divided into 3 groups according to nutritional connections: zoophages - 4 species, zoophytophages - 1 species, phytophages - 25 species.
