The paper presents the results of investigations of rove beetles (Coleoptera, Staphylinidae) species composition and dynamics in winter wheat, barley with undersown perennial grasses and vetch-oats mixture. Beetles were trapped using Barber pitfall traps in May-September period. In total 769 rove beetles, belonging to more than 12 genere (except Aleocharinae beetles) and 29 species were trapped. The euritopic species were common. The biggest number of beetles was found in winter wheat - 656 individuals, 25 species, less - in vetch-oats mixture - 8 species, 31 individuals, in summer barley with undersawn clover - 9 species, 27 individuals and in summer barley - 10 species, 55 individuals. The fauna of rove beetles was composed of saprobiontics and geobiontics species complexes. Rove beetles were most active in May (348 individuals caught) in winter wheat
