A number of 68 leaf beetle species from 9 subfamilies and 32 genera were found in a research made in the North and North-Eastern parts of Cusma Nature 2000 Site, district of Bistrita-Nasaud (Romania). Two endemic species and other 24 rare ones were revealed. Chrysomelinae subfamily and the genera Chrysolina, Longitarsus and Cassida were the best represented ones. The hygrophilous herbs from Soimului de Sus valley was the habitat with the largest number of species, so as a mezzo-hygrophilous lawn in Piatra Fantanele. Some other habitats are important by their rare or endemic leaf beetle species.
