Vplyv vertikálnej zonálnosti územia na spoločenstvá hmyzu (Insecta) lúčnych biotopov lokality Liesková (849 m n. m., CHKO Kysuce, Severné Slovensko)
The effect of the vertical zoning area to communities of insects (Insecta) on meadow and forest habitats sites in Liesková (849 MASL, CHKO Kysuce, North Slovakia)

Summary/Abstract: During the vegetation period (april – october) in the year 2017 we observed the communities of insect (Insecta) in a meadow – forest biotop near the village of Skalité on the hill Liesková (849 MASL, CHKO Kysuce, Nord Slovakia). The object of examination was to determine the effect of vertical zoning study area at the communities of insect on three selected stations with different altitudes (site A – 849 MASL, site B – 700 MASL, site C – 550 MASL). We counted approximately 1222 ex. of insect. They belong to 76 different species originating from 7 orders, 26 different families. From the quantitative point of view at site A (849 MASL) were 312 ex. The lower-altitude station site B (700 MASL) was represented by 410 ex. Site C (550 MASL) located at the lowest altitude was represented by 456 ex. The most represented species were Chrysomelidae and Curculionidae with 9 species (11.9%). The Table n. 1 shows the number of individuals insect, category of dominance and the summary abundance of species in the study aireas. The Graph n. 1 compares the seasonal dynamics of the insect in the study biotops with different vertical zoning on the hill Liesková (550 – 849 MASL).
