Abstrakt: In four habitats of the city of Kaluga, 64 ground beetle species were found. Only 17 species have a complete demographic structure in at least one of the habitats. These species are considered residential and form a stable component in the taxocenoses studied. Only 5–9 species were resident in the habitats considered. The labile component (migrants and sporadic species) were more diverse in all the habitats. The stable component was significantly more abundant than the labile component. Apparently, no more than half of the Carabidae species found in cities are permanent inhabitants of urban landscapes. The composition of the stable and labile components in Carabidae taxocenoses in Kaluga is more similar to that in the taxocenoses of the azonal habitats. At the same time, the urban taxocenoses of ground beetles are formed mainly by the species of the nearest zonal communities. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
