Abstract
By means of pheromone traps containing synthetic sex pheromones, areas of the most harmful click beetle species,Agriotes obscurus,A. lineatus, A. sputator, A. gurgistanus, A. ustulatus, A. tauricus Heyd, andA. lineatus, occurring in southern regions and differing biologically from the so-called northern species, have been specified and charted in the European and central Siberian areas of the former USSR.
