We searched for the species in dead standing and lying trunks in the appropriate early decomposition phase. A total of 445 dead trees were examined at 31 locations, of which the species was detected in 20 trees (4.5%) and 13 locations (41.9%), respectively. At the time of the inventory, we also recorded the species Pythodepressus (Linnaeus, 1767), for the first time in Slovenia. In Goričko, C. cinnaberinus prefers european ash (Fraxinus excelsior), red pine (Pinus sylvestris), poplar (Populus), oak (Quercus) and black locust (Robiniapseudoacacia) as habitat trees. Not the position of the trunk, but its size was found important for the species. It seems that Cucujus cinnaberinus in Goričko, although not abundant, is widespread throughout the area and needs to be protected with correct measuresSpomladi leta 2020 smo opravili prvi sistematični popis škrlatnega kukuja Cucujuscinnaberinus (Scopoli, 1763) na Goričkem. Škrlatnega kukuja smo iskali v odmrlih stoječih in ležečih deblih v primerni zgodnji fazi razkroja. Skupno smo pregledali 445 odmrlih dreves na 31 lokacijah, od katerih smo vrsto našli v 20 drevesih (4,5 %) oziroma na 13 lokacijah (41,9 %). Ob popisu smo zabeležili tudi vrsto Pytho depressus (Linnaeus, 1767), ki je bila v Sloveniji sicer pričakovana, a do sedaj še ni bila najdena. Na Goričkem škrlatni kukuj preferira veliki jesen (Fraxinus excelsior), rdeči bor (Pinus sylvestris), topol (Populus), hrast (Quercus) in robinijo (Robinia pseudoacacia) ter ni izbirčen glede položaja debla, pač pa glede velikosti debla. Kot kaže, je vrsta na Goričkem maloštevilna, a razširjena, zato je v članku podanih tudi nekaj predlogov za aktivno varstvoTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaPrirodoslovni muzej Slovenije
