We studied a population of the hermit beetle (Osmoderma barnabita) and co-occurring saproxylic beetles in hollow willows at a small isolated site in southern Moravia (Czech Republic) in 2006 and 2009. The relationship between the presence / absence of the hermit beetle O. barnabita and the number of other saproxylic species, as well as its co-occurrence with individual species were investigated. In 2006, the species richness of saproxylic beetles was significantly higher in the trees not occupied by the hermit beetle, whereas it was independent of its presence in 2009. We did not find any saproxylic beetle species positively associated with the presence of O. barnabita in the willow cavities; in 2006, two species proved to be associated with hollows uninhabited by O. barnabita. The aspects of the observed pattern and methodological bias are discussed.
