Abstract: The present study deals with coccinellid biodiversity on coniferous trees Pinus mugo and Thuja orientalis trees during 2014 and 2015 in urban landscape of Mashhad district, Iran. A total of nine species belong to six genera were identified. Coccinella septempunctata L. showed the highest population density on both tree species with relative frequencies of 43.2 and 41.7%, respectively. , It was also regarded as the dominant species according to Simpson Index showing indices of 0.69 and 0.75 on both trees, respectively.
