In particular the number of heathland species with low dispersal ability was strongly related to area. Transplant experiments showed that some heathland species with low dispersal ability experienced reduced habitat quality in small habitats, whereas for others at least part of the unoccupied areas were of sufficient quality for successful reproduction. From the presence of occupied as well as unoccupied habitats and from knowledge on its possibilities for dispersal, it is inferred that Pterostichus lepidus lives in metapopulations with continuously and discontinuously occupied patches. Using allozymes, high levels of genetic variation were found in P. -

Material was pitfall trapped in 2010 and 2011 on twelve sites of the agricultural landscape in the Prešov town and its near vicinity, Eastern Slovakia. A total of 14,763 ground beetle individuals were entrapped. Material collection resulted into 92 Carabidae species, with the following six species dominating: Poecilus cupreus, Pterostichus melanarius, Pseudoophonus rufipes, Brachinus crepitans, Anchomenus dorsalis and Poecilus versicolor. Studied habitats differed significantly in the number of entrapped individuals, activity abundance as well as representation of the carabids according to their habitat preferences and ability to fly. However, no significant distinction was observed in the diversity, evenness neither dominance. -

ABSTRACT BOOK Keynote – Presentation
2.7.–7.7. 2017 / Olomouc, CZ ABSTRACT BOOK Keynote – Presentation IMPLICATIONS OF GLOBAL CHANGE FOR AQUATIC COMMUNITIES: DO MICRO-EVOLUTIONARY SHIFTS IN POPULATION FUNCTIONAL TRAITS MAKE A DIFFERENCE? Steven Declerk ([email protected])1 1 Netherlands Institute of Ecology, Wageningen, NL By most ecologists, species are considered as entities with fixed traits because rates of evo- lutionary adaptations are believed to be much slower than the rate of ecological dynamics. However, it is only in the latest years that an increasing number of ecologists come to re- alize that microevolutionary adaptation can take place at ecological time scales. Although microevolutionary trait shifts may seem small and insignificant in magnitude compared to the large trait changes that are documented for macro-evolutionary time scales, they may still be of considerable importance from an ecological perspective, as they may strongly determine the performance of contemporary populations and their interactions with the biotic and abiotic environment. This is especially relevant in the context of current glob- al change, with anthropogenic impacts that cause the biotic and abiotic environment of organisms to change at unprecedented rates. In this talk, I will introduce the concept of eco-evolutionary dynamics, illustrate its relevance for aquatic systems with a variety of examples and try to address the question whether such dynamics may effectively contrib- ute to a better understanding of the response of aquatic biota to anthropogenic pressures. 2 ABSTRACT BOOK / 2.7.–7.7. 2017 / OLOMOUC, CZ 3 Keynote – Presentation Keynote – Presentation SERENDIPIDY IN SCIENCE – 35 YEARS STUDYING A TROPICAL MICROBIAL NITRIFICATION IN URBAN STREAMS: FROM SINGLE LAKE CELL ACTIVITY TO ECOSYSTEM PROCESSES David Harper ([email protected])1 Stephanie N. -
