Comments. Coleoptera have been intensively studied during the last 15 years, which has resulted in many publications with new descriptions and records. Actually, Coleoptera is the most species-rich insect order in the Socotra Archipelago with 537 recorded species (307 of them endemic). Most families were recently revised. A comprehensive catalogue of beetles is in preparation (Hájek & J. Bezděk, in prep.).
