Abstract
Jhunjhunu district, located in the semi-arid
Shekhawati region of Rajasthan, India, was the focus of long-horned beetle
sampling from selected study sites between January 2021 and December 2022. A
total of 11 species, representing 11 genera across 4 subfamilies of the
Cerambycidae family, were recorded from these sites. The findings show
variation in species richness and abundance across the four subfamilies. The
subfamily Lamiinae was the most species-rich, with 7 species, followed by
Cerambycinae with 2 species, and Spondylidinae and Prioninae, each with 1
species. In terms of individual abundance, Lamiinae was again the most
prevalent, comprising 52.22% of the total individuals, followed by Cerambycinae
(17.77%), Spondylidinae (16.66%), and Prioninae (13.33%).
