As a result of faunistic studies conducted from 1985 to 1990, an analysis of museum collections and literature data 38 species of Buprestidae (45% of the Polish fauna) were recorded from the Roztocze Upland (SE Poland). Seven of them are new to this region. Twenty five species were recorded in the Roztoczański National Park.
Results of a study of Buprestidae and Cerambycidae In the pine forests of Puszcza Białowieska (NE Poland) are presented. 16 and 49 species have been registered respectively. Succession of these taxons in four age classes of forest stand (culture, young stand, pole wood, mature stand) has been analysed, and conspicuous differences have been revealed in species composition, structure of dominance, abundance and diversity.
