Carabids are epigean beetles living within the soil’s top horizons where they occupy several ecological niches and are a crucial component of predator diversity either in natural and in agricultural ecosystems [26, 27]. They respond to ecosystem alterations either at fine and at broad environmental scale [28, 29]. Different species show different feeding strategies, such as zoophagy (predatory), phytophagy (seed-eating) and polyphagy (zoophytophagous). Zoophagous types have a special role in containing phytophagous insects of agrarian significance, especially if the latter spend part of their biological cycle in the soil or within the herbaceous layer [11, 23, 30, 31]. Carabid assemblages are distributed in the environment according to definite species’ habitat preferences, which is also affected by landscape managements [11, 23, 32–34].
