Abstract

It was studied the relative abundance to the species of the family Cerambycidae (Insecta-Coleoptera) in a mixed orchard composed by 28 diferent species in the period from decembre 1997 to may 1999 in Ceres, state of Goiás, Brazil. It was used light traps “Luiz de Queiroz” model with BL 15 wats lamps. These traps were turned on for 12 hours during 2 days in a total of 24 hours of week collets. It was collected a total of 1474 Cerambycidae, agruped in 39 genera and 49 species. From the 49 species collected Acanthoderes jaspidea, Achryson surinamum, Chlorida festiva, Eurodacrys sexgutatta, Gnomibidion fulvipes, Lophopoeum timbouve, Megacyllene acuta, Rhopalophora collaris e Trichophorus distinctus were classified as very abundant. From the collected species 48,98 % were classified as raras, 12,24% as disperse, 20,41% as commons and 18,37 % as very abundant. Among the 39 genera Oreodera was represented by 3 species and the genera Acanthoderes, Aerenica, Chrysoprasis, Colobothea, Eutrypanus, Megacylene, Myoxomorpha and Nyssodrysternum by 2 species (4,08 %) , while the other genera wera represented by one species only.
