Abstract

During a pitfall trapping study in a coastal area of Central Norway (2002, 2003), three new species of ground beetles (Coleoptera, Carabidae) were recorded in North Trøndelag County: Notiophilus palustris (Duftschmid, 1812), Cymindis vaporariorum (L., 1758) and Amara aenea (Degeer, 1774). In addition, 14 species were recorded new to the coastal parts of the county, where the total number of carabids known to occur stands at 46. There are 111 recorded carabid species in North Trøndelag. The distributions of the species recorded new for North Trøndelag are discussed in the context of spreading abilities.
