Among them 8 species are new for the Kampinos National Park. The occurrence of 8 species previously mentioned in literature was confirmed. Only Anisoxya fuscula, although known from literature, was not confirmed. One species: Phloiotrya subtilis have been recorded from the Mazovian Lowland for the first time. A current knowledge is most probably not exhaustive and further research could enrich the list. Keywords: Melandryidae, Phloiotrya subtilis, Kampinos National Park, faunistic data, new records, Masovian Lowland 1. INTRODUCTION Melandryidae is a worldwide beetle family which includes 60 genera and 420 species (Konvička 2016). According to Kubisz & al. (2014) only 27 species occur in Poland, however ( Received 16 August 2018; Accepted 01 September 2018; Date of Publication 02 September 2018 )
authors incorrectly excluded Phloiotrya subtilis from Polish fauna. Most of Melandyidae representatives are xylomycetophagous and saproxylic strongly related with various trees and fungi species (Kubisz & al. 2014, Konvička 2016). As of yet only 9 species of Melandryidae have been found in Kampinos National Park: Abdera affinis, A. flexuosa, Anisoxia fuscula, Hypulus bifasciatus, Orchesia fasciata, O. undulata, O. micans, Xylita laevigata and Zilora obscura (Burakowski 2004, Kubisz & al. 2000, 2010, 2014, Marczak 2010, Sawoniewicz 2013). The aim of this study was to supplement the information related with occurrence of representatives of the mentioned family in Kampinos National Park. 2. MATERIAL AND METHODS The material was gathered by Dawid Marczak and Jakub Masiarz, the identification of species was performed by Dawid Marczak and Radosław Mroczyński. Proof specimens can be found in the authors and Kampinos National Park s collections. The following abbreviations were used in the text: FSU forest spatial unit, SPA Strict Protection Area, KNP Kampinos National Park, IBL-2 trap window trap, IBL-5 trap barrier trap. IBL-2 traps were hung between trees or in spaces between large numbers of fallen dead trees, while IBL-5 traps were hung on dead trees. Each location was additionally described, in brackets, with the code of the relevant UTM square. Species new to the Mazovian Lowland were marked with an asterisk [*]. Names were attributed according to Nikitsky & Pollock 2008. The presented results were obtained thanks to the financial support of the Polish State Forests Forest Fund as part of the following research projects: The evaluation of the degree of naturalness of pine forests in Kampinos National Park based on the fauna of saproxylic beetles which was performed in the year 2014, The evaluation of the degree of naturalness of oak-hornbeam forests in Kampinos National Park based on the fauna of saproxylic beetles (2015), The evaluation of the degree of naturalness of chosen tree stands in Kampinos National Park based on the fauna of saproxylic beetles stage III alder forests (2016) and The evaluation of the degree of naturalness of chosen tree stands in Kampinos National Park based on the fauna of saproxylic beetles stage IV wet deciduous forest (2017). 3.

Species has been excluded from Polish fauna (Kubisz & al. 2014), despite that he was reported from Białowieża Forest (Borowski 2001) and Subcarpathian Region (Plewa & al. 2014) in 21th century. Its occurrence in Kampinos National Park, Białowieża Forest and recent finding in the vicinity of Wielopole Skrzyżyńskie (Subcarpathian Region) (Plewa & al. 2014) is denoting that this species should be included as a part of Polish fauna.

CONCLUSIONS The knowledge comprising the occurrence and distribution of species from the Meladryidae family in Kampinos National Park was insufficient. The research allowed to discover 8 species not recorded from this area before. This fact made the number of species known so far from the Park almost doubled. However, this does not mean that the current list is certainly exhaustive. Further research, especially habitats not covered by this study, could enrich this list or at least supplement knowledge about the distribution of species already known. -112-
