Popis: In 2014, an inventory of protected Natura 2000 saproxylic beetles from the Prigoria-Bengeşti protected area in Gorj County (Romania) was made. Four species were identified:Osmoderma eremita(Scopoli, 1763),Lucanus cervus(Linnaeus, 1758),Morimus funereusMulsant, 1862 andCerambyx cerdoLinnaeus, 1758. Using GIS mapping analysis, the distribution of these species was established in terms of the habitats described in the Natura 2000 framework.Lucanus cervusoccurred over more than half of the Prigoria-Bengeşti protected area, with an overall area of occupancy of 26.10%.Morimus funereusandCerambyx cerdooccurred in between 23.21–27.67% of the area, whereasOsmoderma eremitaonly occurred in 12.04% of the ROSCI0359, with area of occupancy by 11.40%. This paper presents the threats to these beetles and summarises some management and conservation issues based on the existing observations and experience at a local level.
