The results of faunistical and ecological research on beetles (Coleoptera) of Curonian Spit were presented in this work. A species composition of different habitats: Baltic sea coastal area and the foredune ridge,wooded dunes, humid dune slacks, white and grey dunes and Curonian lagoons was established on the basis of research. The greatest species diversity was established in humid dune slacks (234 species), the lowest species diversity was established eudominant, dominant, subdominant and accessory species in the four Curonian Spit habitats: wooded dunes, humid dune slacks, grey dunes and littoral Curonian lagoons. The distribution and diversity of rare and protected insects species in Curonian Spit were established. There were found 10 species of beetles new for Lithuanian fauna:Elaphropus parvulus, Pterostichus ovoideus (Carabidae), Enochrus bicolor (Hydrophilidae), Lomechusa emarginata, Quedius infuscatus (Staphylinidae), Negastrius arenicola, Cardiophorus asellus (Elateridae), Obrium brunneum (Cerambycidae), Dicranthus elegans, Glocianus moelleri (Curculionidae). The beetles of 4 species: Cicindela maritima, Calosoma inquisitor (Carabidae), Polyphylla fullo (Scarabeidae), Stenagostus rufus (Elateridae)wee included in Red Data book of Lithuania and the beetles of 11 species - in List of Key forest habitats species.
