Longhorn beetles in Sweden – Changes in distribution and abundance over the last two hundred years introduces the reader to the distribution and abundance of longhorn beetles in Sweden.
The abandonent of traditional agricultural practices and the introduction of large-scale industrial forestry has transformed landscapes and changed the conditions for wood-living organisms. This study examines changes in distribution and abundance of the 118 species of longhorn beetles (Col. Cerambycidae) recorded from natural habitat in Sweden over the 19th and 20th centuries, based on extensive surveys of museums, private collections and information in the literature, all in all more than 57 000 specific records compiled by 1400 collectors. The primary results are presented as maps of species’ distributions.
