Abstract 
 
Faunistic records of three cicindelid and 47 carabid beetles species are given for the Island of Sakhalin in the Russian Far East. Most records refer to a material collected  in 1993 and 1994 in SW Sakhalin by the two junior authors. The following five carabid species are here reported from Sakhalin for the first time: Bembidion chloropus Bates, Pterostichus neglectus A. Mora- witz, Agonum jankowskii Lafer, A. piceum (Linnaeus) and Microlestes minutulus (Goeze). The gross distributions  of all mentioned species are given, with special emphasis on the Far East. The folliwing syn. nov. are given: Pterostichus (Euryperis) eximius A. Morawitz, 1862; = crassiceps A. Morawitz, 1962; = rudnicus Jedlicka, 1968; = obliquefasciatus Jedlicka, 1962; = prochazkorum Jedlicka, 1967; = sakhalinensis Kirschenhofer, 1985).
