Results and discussion

We identified 59 species of the longhorn beetles within NP "Kremenetski Hory". These
species belong to 37 genera, 20 tribes and 5 subfamilies (see list below). Forty-two species
were found at the first time in NP "Kremenetski Hory". Several records have special faunistic
interest. These include Pidonia lurida Fabricius, 1792, Cortodera humeralis (Schaller, 1783),
Xylotrechus antilope Schönherr, 1817 and Cyrtoclytus capra Germar, 1824. Pidonia lurida
is rare in NP "Kremenetski Hory" because here it is on the eastern border of its natural range
in Europe [8, 9, 10]. Our finding of C. humeralis is the second record for Western Podillya
macroregion since 1952 [10]. We also found X. antilope Schönherr, 1817 which is typical
for Polissya macroregion. This is the second recent record of this species within West
Podillya [10]. Another interesting species is C. capra Germar, 1824, which is postglacial
relict, which is common for Eastern Carpathians macroregion than for Western Podillya [8].
On Western Podillya C. capra was known only from Voronyaky the neighbor ecoregion to
Kremenetski Hory [10]. We believe that the ecoregions of Voronyaky and Kremenetski Hory
are refugium for C. capra within Western Podillya. Additionally, we identified Aromia
moschata Linnaeus, 1758, Cerambyx cerdo (Linnaeus, 1758) and Dorcadion equestre
(Laxmann, 1770), which listed in Red Databook of Ukraine [5].
The revealed diversity of Cerambycidae of NP "Kremenetski Hory" constitutes 41%
(59 vs 144 species) in comparison with whole Western Podillya macroregion and 281% of
Voronyaky ecoregion (59 vs 21 species) and 58.4% of Medobory ecoregion (59 vs 101
species). Comparing of the longhorn beetle's richness of NP "Kremenetski Hory" with
neighbor National Parks (NP) and Nature Reserves (NR) on Western Podillya territories was
shown the near equal number of species within them (table 1). We predict that possible total
number of the longhorn beetles in NP "Kremenetski Hory" may be 100-120 species.
