Abstract

New nine habitats of Boros schneideri (Panzer, 1795) have been revealed in Belarus, which are several types of pine forests in Baranovichi, Ivanovo, Pinsk and Drogichin districts of Brest region. Their detection indicates the need for
a more detailed study of the species distribution on the territory of Belarus. B. schneideri has been found on the territory of the landscape reserve “Stronga” for the first time. All specimens of B. schneideri have been found under the bark of
the scotch pine (Pinus sylvestris Linnaeus, 1753). In general B. schneideri inhabits  dead trees of different species and age that grow in forests of various categories, which is important to consider when developing measures for its protection.
The data obtained can be used when preparing the next edition of the Red Book of the Republic of Belarus.
