Description
Summary:The material was collected at 6 sampling sites along the river Some?ul Mare and 7 that of the river Some?ul „Unit". We found 25 bug species altogether. We could not collect from the river Some?ul Mic. though in the literature 38 species are mentioned. Considering our results and the literature, 21 species are recorded, indicating that the majority of these species can be found in the whole catchment area of the river Some?. The water bugs (Hydrocorisae), the amphibiocorid bugs (Amphibiocorisae) and ground bugs (Saldidae) are represented in different proportions in stagnant waters and in the rivers. On the riverbanks the Saldula species are dominant, while in the river some representatives of the Gerndae family are frequent. In the stagnant waters some species of the Hydrocorisae suborder are the most common.
