Title: Analysis of Diversities and Faunal Composition of Darkling Beetles(Tenebrionidae,Coleoptera)in Inner Mongolia
Abstract: According to arrange the designation and relative materials of darkling beetles,preserved in Hebei University Museum found in Inner Mongolia,there are 232species(subspecies),belonging to 65 genera,26tribes and 6subfamilie were identified.Basing on the above data,we analyzed the characteristics of the faunal composition and geographical distribution of the so family insect,and received the following preliminary results:(1)The dominated element of the fauna of the Inner Mongolia darkling beetles are from the Palaearctic realm of Mengxin area,which attains 232species(100.0%)and closes to the North China-57 common species(24.6%)and Northeast China-30 common species(12.9%),but more different with Central China-28 common species(12.1%),Qin-hai Tiketan Region-28(12.1%),Southern China-22 common species(9.5%),and Southwest China-11 common species(4.5%);The map of the distribution of Inner Mongolia darkling beetles show a trend of that the species gradually increased from the West to the East,which proper order is:Alxa Desert-144species(62.1%) Centro-Inner Mongolia Semidesert-98species(42.3%)HulunBuir-West Liaoning 52species(22.4%)the Arid-Steppe Region of Eastern Inner Mongolia-48species(20.7%)the Arid-Steppe of Eastern Inner Mongolia-14species(6.0%);(3)The Inner Mongolia darkling beetles are more abundant in characteristic genera and species,we already found 19genera(29.2 %)and 29species(12.5%).In addition,this work also analyzed and discussed the regional distributions of the Inner Mongolia darkling beetles currently.
