Keywords:
ecological preferences, Elateridae, faunistic inventory, Srem regionAbstract
A survey was conducted on Elateridae fauna of Srem region, in the south of Vojvodina Province (Serbia) during 2010-2012. As many as 1202 specimens (666 adults and 536 larval forms) were collected from 949 ha on four localities and different types of habitats (crops and open biotops). Totally, 37 species belonging to 15 genera were identifed. The most frequently present genus was Agroites, with the species A. ustulaus.
