The materials from the trap were collected every 10-15 days. At each harverst, the Formalin solution was completed or replaced, if necesary. Every year, we made 10-12 collections. The collected material was brought in the laboratory where we separated the species of carabidae and determinated them. RESULTS AND DISCUSSIONS As far as the structure is concerned, the dynamic and the abundance of the collected carabidaes are as it follows (Table 1). During the period in which the observations were made, from 1992-2001, there were collected 10704 specimens of carabids. The largest number of specimens collected was registered in   1996 (2172 specimens) and the smallest numbers of specimens (386 specimens) were collected in 2000.If we regard the number of collected species from same period, we could notice that the largest number of species was collected in 1999 (32 of species), then in 2000 (23 species) and 2001 with 21 of species. The smallest numbers of species were collected in 1997 (14 species) and 1992, 1998 (15 species).The species with the largest number of collected specimens along the observation period were: Pseudophonus rufi pes (4971 specimens), Harpalus distinguendus (3333 specimens), Brachynus explodens  (378 specimens), Brachynus crepitans (304 speimens), Amara familiaris (246 specimens), Calathus fuscipes (224 specimens), Anisodactylus signatus (177 specimens), Amara aenea (141 specimens) and Poecilus cupreus (109 specimens).The smallest number of specimens was registred at the following species: Microlestes maurus and Agonum livens, each a single specimen, Carabus violaceus, Microlestes minutus, Pterostichus niger, Zabrus blapoides, Amara apricaria, each 2 specimens, succeeded by the species: Pterostichus melas and Calathus melanocephalus (5 specimens), Amara crenata (6 specimens), Abax carinatus and Trechus quadristriatus (7 specimens), Amara eurynota (9 specimens), Pogonus litoralis and Dolichus halensis (10 specimens), Harpalus calceatus (11 specimens), Amara ovata (14 specimens), Bembidion properans (16 specimens), Pterostichus melanarius (18 speciens), Carabus cancellatus (18 specimens), Cicindela germanica (23  specimens), Carabus besseri (37 specimens) etc.The genus to which these collected species belong are (Table 2): Cicindela, Trechus, Calathus, Carabus, Bembidion, Pogonus, Harpalus, Anisodactylus, Amara, Zabrus, Pterostichus, Cymindis, Microlestes, Brachynus, Abax, Dolichus, Agonum, Licinus and Acupalpus, in all the 19 genus. As far as the number of the collected specimens and species is concerned, we notice that the genus Harpalus (with a number of 6 species and a total of 8800 specimens) and the genus Amara (with 6 species and with a total of 593 specimens) were the best represented.A number of 9 genus: Cicindela, Trechus, Bembidion, Pogonus, Anisodactylus, Cymindis, Abax, Dolichus and Agonum had only one species.A number of 5 species were collected during the period of research (Table 3): Pseudophonus rufi pes, Harpalus distinguendus, Brachynus crepitans, Amara familiaris and Pseudophonus griseus. From the fi ve species, the largest number of specimens were registered at two species: Pseudophonus rufi pes (4971 specimens) and Harpalus distinguendus (3333 specimens).  The dynamics of species, which have the largest specimens, is graphically represented in Figure 1.CONCLUSIONS1. During the 10 years of observations, there were collected 10 704 specimens of carabidae belonging to 41 species.2. The dominant species, in what concerns the number of specimens collected, were: Pseudophonus rufi pes (4971 specimens), Harpalus distinguendus (3333 specimens), Brachynus explodens (378 specimens), Amara CONTRIBUTION TO THE COGNITION OF THE FAUNAS OF CARABIDAES (COLEOPTERA - CARABIDAE) FROM THE VINEYARDS FROM THE VINEGROWING CENTER IN COPOU -  IASSY271J.
