Durmast oak (Quercus petraea /MATTUSCH./LIEBL., English oak (Quercus robur L), Turkey oak (Quercus cerris L.) and Quercus libani OLIV. were analysed. Red oak (Quercus rubra L.) was analysed from locality Jasov (quadrat number DFS 7391, Grid reference number of the Databank of the fauna of Slovakia) owing to infertility of Red oak in Botanical Garden for its low age. There were found these insects pests: Andricus caputcalicis BUGSD., Curculio glandium, Callirhytis glandium GIR., Cydia splendana HB. and Andricus caputmedusae BURGSD.
