“…Among the European flower chafers (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae: Cetoniinae) several saproxylic representatives are considered as flagship or umbrella species for biodiversity protection (Ranius et al, 2005; Aving et al, 2014; Trizzino et al, 2014; Landvik et al, 2016). These beetles are usually highly endangered across vast portions of their distribution area, exhibiting highly fragmented populations associated with old‐growth solitary trees (Ranius et al, 2005; Valainis et al, 2021). Some of these species are included in the European Union Natura 2000 network, or are protected by the legal acts of individual countries (e.g., Thomaes et al, 2015) or listed in various national (e.g., Král & Bezděk, 2017) or European Red Lists of threatened species (Cálix et al, 2018).…”
