The list includes beetles that cause damage in fields, pastures, orchards, gardens, parks, and vineyards. In the case of parks, the list mainly includes pests of ornamental shrubs. Given that the lists are compiled with regard to the presence of pests that can cause greater economic damage, they do not provide an exhaustive list of all pests of ornamental crops that are currently found in residential gardens.
The following paragraphs explain the individual columns in the table below.
The data sources used to create the individual tables can be found in the menu "About project" -> "Sources"
.
Family/Taxon and English name
The names of the families have been modified according to the family catalogue, which is available on this website as of 8 March 2026.
The names of the taxa themselves have been adjusted according to the catalogues of the relevant families on this website, valid as of 8 March 2026. If a taxon appears in the table that is not included in the catalogue of the relevant family (e.g. it is a non-native species that was not included in the family catalogue when it was created), the name of such a taxon was taken from the currently valid ITIS (Integrated Taxonomic Information System) database.
Given that pests very often also have Czech names, the more commonly used or established names are also used in this table.
Damage
The data in this column specify the appearance of the pest. The data can take one of the following values:
| Value | Description |
| larva | The pest is the larval stage of the beetle. |
| imago | The pest is the adult beetle. |
| larva (roots), larva (leaves), imago (roots), imago (leaves) | The pest is the larva or adult, with a more detailed description of where that stage causes damage. |
| larva(!), imago(!) | The pest is the larva or adult, with an emphasis on which form is more dangerous (harmful). |
Plant
This column contains a list of plants that are damaged by the given species. For some highly polyphagous species, such a list would be too long. In such cases, the list is shortened and ends with several dots (...). The column contains the Czech names of plants as they were recorded in the individual sources studied.
Location of damage
This column specifies the locations where the taxon causes the most damage to plants. In the case of orchards and agricultural areas, the most frequently reported locations are:
| Term | Description |
Underground parts |
|
| Roots | Main, lateral, root hairs |
| Rhizome | underground stem of the plant |
| Tubers | A tuber is a fleshy, enlarged organ that develops from a stem, root or rhizome. We distinguish between rhizome tubers and root tubers. |
| Beet | A beet (or root tuber/swollen hypocotyl) is a specific type of underground storage organ formed by the thickening of several plant parts at once. Examples: beetroot, celery, radish |
| Onion | This is a transformed underground bud. |
Ground interface |
|
| Root flare | It is the interface between the trunk and the roots in the ground. It is mainly used for forest trees. |
| Root collar | It is the imaginary and visible boundary where the root turns into the stem. It is used for field and garden plants. |
Above-ground parts |
|
| Stems | blade, stem, stalk |
| Cabbage | This is a thickened, above-ground stem. It is used specifically for brassica vegetables. Example: kohlrabi, cabbage |
| Shoots and young shoots | Young shoots is a general term for the stem part with leaves that is just growing out of the bud. Shoot is a specific name for a shoot in its first year of life. |
| Trunk | The trunk is the main, vertical woody axis of the tree that supports the crown and connects it to the roots. The trunk consists of bark (outer protection), phloem (the living part under the bark through which nutrients flow) and wood (the inner part). |
| Branches | Branches are lateral woody shoots growing from the trunk. Branches have thinner bark than the trunk and usually receive more sunlight. |
| Crown | The crown is the collection of all branches, shoots, buds and leaves/needles at the top of the tree. It is the "production centre" of the tree, where photosynthesis takes place. |
| Bark | The bark is everything outside the wood. It consists of two main functional layers: the phloem (inner bark), which is a living layer through which sugars flow from the leaves to the roots, and the outer bark, which is the dead, outer part of the bark that gradually peels or cracks. |
| Phloem and cambium | The phloem is the inner, living part of the bark. It is the tree's "transport highway" that distributes organic nutrients (sugars) produced by photosynthesis from the leaves down to the roots. Cambium is an extremely thin layer of cells (often only one layer) located between the phloem and the wood. It is a so-called meristem, which ensures the growth of the tree in thickness. |
Leaves and needles |
|
| Buds | dormant stage of a future organ – leaf, flower or entire stem |
| Leaves | A leaf is a flat lateral organ of the stem. It is used in deciduous plants. It consists of the flat part of the leaf (blade), the stalk that connects the leaf to the stem (petiole) and the leaf's distribution network (veins). |
| Needles | Botanically speaking, a needle is a leaf adapted to dry and cold conditions. It is used in coniferous trees. We distinguish between individual needles (e.g. spruce, fir) and bundles (e.g. pine). |
Reproductive organs |
|
| Flowers and inflorescences | A flower is essentially a modified shoot (stem with leaves) used for sexual reproduction. It consists of several parts: the receptacle, which is the enlarged upper part of the stem from which the flower grows (it is very nutritious), the perianth (calyx and corolla), which are colourful petals that attract pollinators but also pests, stamens (pollen), which are a source of high-quality protein, and the pistil (ovary), which is the most important part, necessary for reproduction. |
| Fruits | This is the entire covering (e.g. pod, capsule, apple) that protects the seeds. We distinguish between fleshy fruits (berries, drupes, pome fruits) and dry fruits (capsules, capsules, pods, grains, nuts). |
| Cones | Pine cones can be immature, mature or crumbly. |
| Seeds | These are the most concentrated sources of energy (starches, fats, proteins) that plants offer. They are part of the fruit, e.g. the stone in a cherry, the seed in a poppy, the kernel in a nut. We distinguish between the following types of seeds: grains in grasses and cereals, seeds in legumes, seeds in woody plants (acorns, beechnuts), seeds in oilseeds (rapeseed, poppy seeds) and seeds in stone fruits. |
Specific term |
|
| Stumps | The underground part of a woody plant that remains in the ground after it has been felled. |
EPPO Code
The EPPO global database is managed by the Secretariat of the European and Mediterranean Plant Protection Organisation (EPPO). The aim of the database is to provide all information on specific harmful organisms that EPPO has created or collected. The database contains information on more than 98,700 species of interest to agriculture, forestry and plant protection: plants (both cultivated and wild) and pests (including pathogens and invasive alien plants). The database also contains detailed information on more than 1,900 species of harmful organisms that are subject to regulatory interest (harmful organisms listed by the EPPO and the EU, as well as pests regulated in other parts of the world).
Alien
This column indicates whether the taxon is non-native to the Czech Republic. The flag was set according to the source from which the information was drawn and may not correspond exactly to the table in the Lexicon -> Invasive Species menu, where a number of species are marked with the code C (uncertain origin) in the "Origin Status" column and are marked as native or non-native in the list of pests.
Note
The last column is used for comments that specify or justify the classification of a given taxon as a pest.
