Studies on ground beetles (Coleoptera, Carabidae) in eight forest types of the Kamanos State Strict Reserve were carried out in 2001-2002. 43 species of ground beetles, which belong to 15 genera were recognized. Dominating species, number of individuals of the species, seasonal activity of dominating species, ecological and zoogeographical characteristics of the ground beetles were ascertained at each forest type. The results show that soil moisture is the most important factor determining differences in ground beetle coenoses between the forest types.
