Diversity of vascular plants and ground beetles (Coleoptera: Carabidae) in mountain cattle pastures.
Original language description
The diversity of vascular plants and ground beetles (carabids) was examined in pastures of three dairy farms (575-793 m above sea level) in the Czech Republic. The pastures were grazed in rotation in 3-4 cycles from May to October. On each farm, two pasture sites were monitored. The botanical 16 m2 scans were taken three times a year in two consecutive years and carabid beetles were sampled during two sampling seasons by pitfall trapping. No significant differences in the community alpha diversity (Shannon diversity index, H´) and the evenness (Shannon equitability index, E) were found between the farms, the sites within farms, and the years in any of the examined organismal groups (hierarchical ANOVA, site nested in farm, P>0.05). Pasture swards belonged to the Lolio-Cynosuretum association. In total, 28 to 47 species of vascular plants and 17 to 30 species of ground beetles were recorded. Carabid communities were dominated mainly by Poecilus versicolor.
