Abstract
Fifty-three species of Cerambycidae were collected in Mali between 2014 and 2020 as by-catches within NIH and IVCC projects for malaria vector ecology and control, 42 of them are new records for the country. An updated list of 89 species of cerambycid beetles of Mali is presented. Two species, Niphotragulus occidentalis Breuning, 1977 and Sophronica sudanica Breuning, 1962, are so far only known from Mali.

Introduction
The Republic of Mali is a fast-developing West African country with an area of 1.2 million km2 and a quickly growing population of approximately 20 million (UN 2022). The territory stretches from north to south for a 1600 km distance and occupies five main ecological climate and vegetation zones (Rian et al. 2009; Coulibaly et al. 2016; Tandina et al. 2018; Sylla 2020): Saharan, Sahelian, Sudanian, Sudano-Guinean and Guinean zones (Fig. 1).
The vast northern areas include extreme desert, semidesert, and some oasis habitats with a very low population density of nomadic and semi-nomadic herders. Here the climate is typical of the Sahara Desert, and July is the hottest month. It rarely rains, though every few years some sporadic and local downpours can occur. More to the south, in the center of the country, in July, August, and September, the temperature decreases steadily because of the regular showers fed by the African summer monsoon, which brings humid currents from the Atlantic Ocean. Here the climate is also tropical in winter, and the hottest months are April, May, and June, when the maximum temperature often exceeds 40°C, with peaks of 48°C, this area is a part of the Sahel. In the southern region, rainfall exceeds 500 mm per year (south of a line along the border of Senegal to Mopti), and in the extreme south (in a line from Bamako to Sikasso), it exceeds 1,000 mm with the rainy season lasting from June to November (WMO 2021).
The country as a whole suffers from desertification slowly moving from north to south and intensive human-caused accelerating deforestation, especially in the southern regions (FAO UN / UN EP 2020). The climate change is pushing on an annual basis the Sahara Desert up to 48 km towards the south in the Sahel, and once reliable rainy seasons are now fluctuating in time and total annual amounts of precipitation significantly, resulting in more intensive use of remaining ecosystems suitable for agriculture (Nicholson 2000; Nicholson 2001; Thomas et Nigam 2018).
In Mali deforestation is mainly driven by replacing woodlands with agricultural areas, but also logging for timber and clearing bushland and remaining forests for charcoal production in areas that can later not be used for agriculture like steep slopes and rocky areas is common practice (Mensah et al. 2020). The degradation of the remaining forests is further driven by overgrazing of cattle, sheep, and goats and burning annually the undergrowth at the end of the dry season to enhance fresh growth for grazing (Kiyani et al. 2017). In Malian villages firewood is still the main energy source for cooking and forests are accordingly cleaned out of any type of dead wood (Morton 2007). Accordingly, insect groups that are dependent on mature woodlands, especially fallen trees are strongly impacted and their habitats are quickly vanishing. One of the vulnerable groups is Cerambycidae, especially species that are xylophagous and develop inside the wood and roots of large trees.
Very little was so far known about the Cerambycidae of Mali – only one article was devoted to the fauna of the country by Villiers (1962) mentioning 31 taxa. Other records from Mali are sporadic without an attempt to summarize the local fauna (Pic 1898; Pic 1932; Lepesme 1952; Lepesme et Breuning 1958; Villiers 1962; Breuning 1962b; Breuning 1977; Breuning 1963; Quentin et Villiers 1971; Quentin et Villiers 1972; Sudre et al. 2007; Juhel et Bentanachs 2009; Teocchi et al. 2016; Juhel 2017; Bjørnstad 2019).
Material and methods
The material of the present study was obtained from by-catches from long-term malaria research conducted from 2008 to 2021 by the University of Sciences, Techniques, and Technologies of Bamako (USTTB). Adults were collected with sweep nets, Malaise traps, UV-CDC traps, and different types of larger UV traps (Kline et al. 2011; Sheikh et al. 2016) and by other miscellaneous methods by the local and visiting entomologists around the following localities (Fig. 1): Bamako, Déguéla, Kangaba, Kenieroba, Mopti, Ouronina, Sikasso. The collected material was identified and stored partially in the first author’s collection and collection of the USTTB.

Discussion
Presently 89 species of Ceramycidae are known from Mali, 42 of them are new records. Being aware of the patchy collection efforts and the lack of material from the most southern regions of the country we expect a significant number of additional species which are so far not recorded. Among the recorded species 2 are suggested to be endemic to Mali, 8 show a West African distribution, 64 species are widely distributed on the continent, while 15 species are also known from outside of the continent.
All in all, little material from the West African Sahel can be found in international and local collections. Much work needs to be done to understand distribution patterns and ecological needs for almost all species. We would not be surprised if so far much less than 50% of the local species have been recorded. Mali is from a point of biodiversity one of the least researched countries (115th place in the world and 31st place in sub-Saharan Africa; Wolf et al. 2022). Even in the best-researched group of insects, butterflies, there is not a single publication dedicated to the local fauna and only a few dozen of species were according to Larsen (2005) sporadically recorded without any attempt to publish a local fauna. The authors of this study meanwhile compiled a list of more than 150 species of butterflies from Mali with minimal effort, the total number of local species should be again far above this number (original unpublished data). The same is the case for moths; only a few dozens of noctuid species are published while we compiled a preliminary list of more than 250 morphospecies (original unpublished data). It can be expected that this situation is similar to most other invertebrate groups. The lack of data can easily be explained by only a few entomologists having collected in Mali, only over short periods, during the last decades. This resulted in the false assumption that biodiversity is low in this “arid” country which even further discouraged potential research on the local fauna and biodiversity.
The ecosystems in the Sahelian belt and the deciduous scattered forests towards the south are presently threatened by rapid climate change with resulting desertification (FAO UN / UN EP 2020). This is especially the case in the Western Sahel and particularly in Mali with one of the highest population growth rates within Africa (8th place in the world with 2.9% annual population growth; World Bank 2022). There seems to be only a short window in which the present biodiversity can be recorded in these threatened and vanishing ecosystems and valuable data can be preserved for future generations and long-term projects measuring the changes in the local ecosystems over the next decades.
Acknowledgements
We are grateful to the late Prof. Dr. Vasiliy D. Kravchenko (Tel Aviv University, Israel, USTTB Bamako, Mali) for his dedicated entomological work in Mali: operating trapping systems, training local entomologists, and taking care of the collected material in harsh conditions.
We are thankful to the University of Sciences, Techniques, and Technologies of Bamako, which allowed us to use their field station near Ouronina, the numerous village councils that approved our activities, and the citizens of the surrounding villages that kindly tolerated our activities in their land.
We thank Karl Adlbauer for the species identification and valuable comments.
