The paper presents an annotated list of 91 species from 26 genera, 16 tribes and 9 subfamilies of Cicindelidae and Carabidae collected from the Myao-Chan Ridge (Khabarovsk Krai, Russia). Thiry-six species are newly recorded for the fauna of the Myao-Chan Ridge. The paper provides the results of comparative analysis of the ground beetle fauna of the Miao-Chan Ridge with that of the Badzhal and Bureinsky ridges, as well as the Komsomolsky Nature Reserve. The carabid fauna of Miao-Chan is, on one the hand, typical of the highlands of Khabarovsk Krai; on the other hand, the majority of ground beetle species found on the ridge inhabit the adjacent plains, mid-mountains, and low mountains.
