Abstract

The typification of bird nidocenoses was developed and presented (it’s according to three main criteria): spatial (topological), temporal and biological. Based on the spatial characteristics (within the framework of the study), 3 groups of nidocenoses were differented: terral, subterral, and suprateral nests; and based on the temporary – annual and perennial nests. In heterogeneous nidocenoses of 21 bird species, 43 species of beetles from 19 families were recorded. Based on the spatial and temporal criteria, nidocenoses was divided into groups. Among the beetles, environmental groups of obligate nidicolous – botrobionts (Haploglossa nidicola and Saprinus rugifer), facultative nidicolous – botrophiles and random species in the nests – botroxenes were identified. New cases of unintentional phoresy of adult beetles on birds were recorded (Ptinus villiger on Luscinia svecica, Cartodere constricta on Luscinia luscinia, Melanophthalma suturalis on Chroicocephalus ridibundus and Limodromus assimilis on Parus major).
