The occurrence of rove beetles (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae) on a balk, field grove and ecoton was studied. Individuals of rove beetles were captured into Barber’s pitfall traps from May to October 2007 and 2009. During the investigation period 733 beetles were collected (42 species). The eudominants were Philonthus addendus, Aleochara curtula, Philonthus succicola and Oxypoda acuminata. The class of dominants was represented by one species – Philonthus decorus, which is an important entomophagous beetle of Operophtera brumata. The zoogeographical analysis revealed that the largest number of species represented the European element (33.3%).
