In total, 69 specimens of family Carabidae were collected and examined. As a result of identification, 19 species and 6 subspecies belonging to 10 genera of 4 subfamilies were determined. 11 new species are added to the fauna of Khorasan provinces, including 3 species namely Dixus clypeatus P. Rossi, 1790, Poecilus (Poecilus) punctulatus Schaller, 1783 and Pterostichus (Melanius) elongatus Duftschmid, 1812 which are here recorded for the first time from Iran. 2 species previously reported in the literature were not encountered in the survey. With this paper, new faunistic data and some zoogeographical evaluations are presented on ground beetles fauna (Coleoptera, Carabidae) of Iran.

Loss of deadwood habitats is but one major concern in conservation or biodiversity efforts in the region. An emblematic group, such as Lucanus spp. of the family Lucanidae, may prove to be a critical component of these conservation efforts. Eight taxonomic groups of Lucanus spp. are found in Turkey. A taxonomic key for these species and subspecies was developed and should serve as a basis for gathering needed data on the distribution, ecology, biology, and occurrence of Lucanus spp. in Turkey and surrounding areas. The dead wood habitat of native broadleaf trees is severely threatened in Turkey (Avcı et al. 2010, Coșkun et al. 2010, Gürkan et al. 2010). Loss of this habitat will negatively impact biodiversity in the region. One such group of beetles that could be impacted is Lucanus spp. of the family Lucanidae. Lucanus cervus (L.) is a conspicu-ous and emblematic beetle of this group and is protected in many countries (Harvey et al. 2011, Thomaes et al. 2008a). It is listed as 'near-threatened' in the European Red List of Saproxilic Beetles (Nieto and Alexander 2010) and is protected by a habi-tat directive in the European Union (Luce 1996). Its numbers are also apparently de-clining in Russia (RDBRF 2001). Atay and Oğur (2011) note that it is also threatened in Turkey. Larvae of L. cervus live underground in deadwood of broadleaf tree species, mainly Quercus spp. oaks, in forests and wooded areas (Thomaes et al. 2008b, Harvey et al. 2011). Adults reportedly feed on overripe fruit and sap runs of trees. However, little is known on how the other species within the genus differ ecologically and in their adap-tations to unique niches. Indeed, there are only a few studies on the distribution, rarity, and ecology of L. cervus and related species in Turkey (Atay and Oğur 2011, Schenk and Fiedler 2011). The genus Lucanus has 98 described taxa worldwide with only 8 of those taxa found in Turkey (Krajcik 2001, Bartolozzi and Sprecher-Uebersax 2006). Each of these species could potentially be an emblematic species used in safeguarding and

This species-group was represented by a dozen anthophagous species associated with Brassicaceae, and distributed from North Africa to Middle Asia and southern Siberia. The analysis was mainly focused on the specific distinction and formal description of two new species from E Turkey, B. gloriae sp. nov., and B. coracimimus sp. nov., one species from Tajikistan, B. capannai sp. nov., and one additional new species, B. cantabricus sp. nov., from Cantabrian Mts in NW Spain. B. gloriae sp. nov., strictly associated with Neotchihatchewia isatidea (Boissier) Rauschert (Brassicaceae, Lunarieae), is morphologically related to but molecularly distinct from the rare and sympatric B. longulus (Schilsky, 1894). B. coracimimus sp. nov., whose larval host-plant is unknown, is morphologically and molecularly related to the amply sympatric and common B. coracinus . B. cantabricus sp. nov., strictly associated with Sisymbrium irio L. (Brassicaceae, Sisymbrieae), is morphologically related to but molecularly markedly distinct from the parapatric B. subaeneus . B. capannai sp. nov., whose larval host-plant is unknown, is morphologically related to the rare and allopatric B. longulus . A short discussion of the state of art of the taxonomy and phylogeny of members of the B. coracinus group, a key to the identification of the 16 known species, and an updated synoptic table including larval host-plant relationship and geographical distribution of each included species, are finally provided.

There is the European Red List of Saproxylic Beetles published by International Union for Conservation of Nature. This paper gives an overview of the saproxylic beetle species found in Latvia and included in the European Red list. The aim of this work was to analyse the composition and conservation status of these species, as well as to provide suggestions for updating list of specially protected species.

Acta Biol. Univ. Daugavp., 14 (2): 145 – 157. Saproxylic insects represent an important part of forest biodiversity and have functionally significant role in the forest ecosystems. They are species-rich organisms that depend upon the dead or dying wood or upon the presence of other saproxylic species. In this study we investigated whether stump harvesting affects saproxylic insect assemblages in the clear-cut of managed forest in Latvia. We used pitfall traps and window traps for sampling beetles in the clear-cut sites with removed and retained stumps. Overall, these two sampling sites shared a similar number of beetle species. However, there were significant differences between two sampling methods with more species from window traps. Saproxylic species were more abundant in site with retained stumps.

Research, in which scanning method is used, is performed with 182 learners on 2015-educational year. For data collection, Teacher Ethical Value Scale according to Students Perception, which is developed and tested for reliability by Gunduz and Coskun (2012). On statistical evaluation of gathered values, independent t-test, Mann Whitney u test and correlation matrix is used. On the other hand, values are evaluated on 0.01 and 0.05 meaningfulness level and their percentage, frequency, average and standard deviation values are also analysed. On the research, it is determined that class level and school type variables are effective ones on teachers ethical standard of judgement. Yet, it is seen that there is no meaningful difference on gender variable.
