Abstract
The composition and structure of peculiar complexes of ground beetles (Carabidae) of watershed linden forests of Udmurtia were studied and analyzed in comparison with complexes of disturbed forests with a predominance of linden in the green zone of Izhevsk. It has been shown that about 40 species of the family inhabit the primary watershed linden forests, among which forest mesophiles and mesohygrophiles predominate, including a number of rare and specially protected species of Siberian and Ural origin ( Carabus schoenherri Fischer von Waldheim, 1820, C. aeruginosus hermanni Mannerheim, 1827, Carabus henningi Fischer von Waldheim, 1817, Pterostichus urengaicus Jureček, 1924, P. uralensis krasnobaevi O.Berlov & Tilly, 1998) and representatives of European fauna ( Carabus glabratus Paykull, 1790, C. hortensis Linnaeus, 1758, Pterostichus aethiops (Panzer , 1796). Complexes of recreational and, especially, park linden forests are characterized by low species richness and trivial species composition, which is based on common eurybiont and meadow-field species, as well as an invasive European species - Carabus nemoralis Müller, 1764.
