Przegląd Przyrodniczy XXV, 2 (2014): 91-100 Rafał Ruta ZABYTKOWY PARK W KUJANIE KOłO ZłOTOWA JAKO OSTOJA SAPROKSYLICZNYCH CHrząSZCZY (INSECTA: COLEOPTERA) An old park in Kujan near Złotów as a refuge of saproxylic beetles (Insecta: Coleoptera) ABSTRAKT: Podsumowano kilkuletnie obserwacje nad chrząszczami parku w Kujanie. W niewielkim obiekcie o pow. ok. 2 ha odnotowano występowanie rzadkich owadów saproksylicznych, jak Anitys ru- bens, Elater ferrugineus, Osmoderma barnabita i Gnorimus nobilis. Przedyskutowano znaczenie obiektu dla zachowania fauny saproksylicznej.

In the small park (area of ca. 2 ha) several endangered species were found, including Anitys rubens, Elater ferrugineus, Osmoderma barna- bita and Gnorimus nobilis. Significance of the area for preservation of saproxylic fauna is discussed.

Sand pit for Biodiversity at Cep II quarry Researcher: Klára Řehounková Research group: Petr Bogusch, David Boukal, Milan Boukal, Lukáš Čížek, František Grycz, Petr Hesoun, Kamila Lencová, Anna Lepšová, Jan Máca, Pavel Marhoul, Klára Řehounková, Jiří Řehounek, Lenka Schmidtmayerová, Robert Tropek Březen – září 2012 Abstract We compared the effect of restoration status (technical reclamation, spontaneous succession, disturbed succession) on the communities of vascular plants and assemblages of arthropods in CEP II sand pit (T řebo ňsko region, SW part of the Czech Republic) to evaluate their biodiversity and conservation potential. We also studied the experimental restoration of psammophytic grasslands to compare the impact of two near-natural restoration methods (spontaneous and assisted succession) to establishment of target species. The sand pit comprises stages of 2 to 30 years since site abandonment with moisture gradient from wet to dry habitats. In all studied groups, i.e. vascular pants and arthropods, open spontaneously revegetated sites continuously disturbed by intensive recreation activities hosted the largest proportion of target and endangered species which occurred less in the more closed spontaneously revegetated sites and which were nearly absent in technically reclaimed sites. Out results provide clear evidence that the mosaics of spontaneously established forests habitats and open sand habitats are the most valuable stands from the conservation point of view. It has been documented that no expensive technical reclamations are needed to restore post-mining sites which can serve as secondary habitats for many endangered and declining species. The experimental restoration of rare and endangered plant communities seems to be efficient and promising method for a future large-scale restoration projects in abandoned sand pits. -

Large grazing herbivores drive the ecology of the site and can have a profound impact on invertebrates, both positive and negative. This survey was commissioned in order to assess the site’s invertebrate assemblage in a standardised and repeatable way both internally between fields and sections and temporally between years. Eight fields were selected across the estate with two in the north, two in the central block -
A Comparison of Three Trapping Methods Used to Survey Forest-Dwelling Coleoptera
Eur. J. Entomol. 103: 397–407, 2006 ISSN 1210-5759 A comparison of three trapping methods used to survey forest-dwelling Coleoptera ESKO HYVÄRINEN, JARI KOUKI and PETRI MARTIKAINEN Faculty of Forest Sciences, University of Joensuu, P.O. Box 111, FIN – 80101 Joensuu, Finland; e-mail: [email protected] Keywords. Abundance distribution, beetles, biodiversity inventories, boreal forest, Coleoptera, interception traps, pitfall traps, sampling, species richness, window traps Abstract. Sampling of insect communities is very challenging and for reliable interpretation of results the effects of different sam- pling protocols and data processing on the results need to be fully understood. We compared three different commonly used methods for sampling forest beetles, freely hanging flight-intercept (window) traps (FWT), flight-intercept traps attached to trunks (TWT) and pitfall traps placed in the ground (PFT), in Scots pine dominated boreal forests in eastern Finland. Using altogether 960 traps, forming 576 sub-samples, at 24 study sites, 59760 beetles belonging to 814 species were collected over a period of a month. All of the material was identified to species, with the exception of a few species pairs, to obtain representative data for analyses. Four partly overlapping groups were used in the analyses: (1) all, (2) saproxylic, (3) rare and (4) red-listed species. In terms of the number of species collected TWTs were the most effective for all species groups and the rarer species the species group composed of (groups 1-2-3-4) the larger were the differences between the trap types. In particular, the TWTs caught most red-listed species. However, when sample sizes were standardized FWTs and TWTs caught similar number of species of all species groups.
