| Summary: | For the first time in the conditions of Belarusian Poozeriye an analysis of the taxonomic composition of insects in the dwarf-shrub layer of the vegetation of boreal pine forests is made. The aim of the work is to reveal the taxonomic structure of insects in the dwarf-shrub layer formed by Vaccinium vitis-idaea and Vaccinium myrtillus in pine forests in Belarusian Lakeland (Poozeriye). Material and methods. The material was collected by sweep netting from the end of April to the end of October of 2017– 2020 in pine forests in 5 Districts of Vitebsk Region. Findings and their discussion. Specimens of 8 orders of insects (Insecta, Ectognatha) which belong to 45 families and 165 species were identified. Insects of two orders Hemiptera and Coleoptera prevailed, both in terms of species richness and relative abundance. The highest quantitative differentiation of insects in two selected pine forest types with Vaccinium vitis-idaea and Vaccinium myrtillus was revealed at the family level. Conclusion. For the first time in Belarusian Lakeland, an analysis of the taxonomic composition of insects inhabiting the dwarf-shrub layer of boreal pine forests on the border of the two largest zones: the Eurasian taiga (coniferous) and the European (broad-leaved) forest was carried out. Впервые в условиях Белорусского Поозерья выполнен анализ таксономического состава насекомых, населяющих кустарничковый ярус растительности бореальных сосновых лесов. Цель работы – выявить таксономическую структуру насекомых кустарничкового яруса, сформированного Vaccinium vitis-idaea и Vaccinium myrtillus в сосновых лесах в Белорусском Поозерье. Материал и методы. Материал собран методом кошения энтомологическим сачком с конца апреля до конца октября 2017–2020 гг. на стационарах в 5 районах Витебской области. Результаты и их обсуждение. Выявлены представители 8 отрядов насекомых (Insecta, Ectognatha), принадлежащих к 45 семействам и 165 видам. Преобладали как по видовому богатству, так и по относительному обилию представители 2 отрядов – Hemiptera ... |
