Absence of forest mantles creates ecological traps for Parnassius mnemosyne (Lepidoptera, Papilionidae).
Original language description
During an intensive mark-recapture study of a woodland population of Parnassius mnemosyne, we observed dozens of butterfl ies occurring at intensively farmed wheat fields that adjoined the wood but clearly did not constitute their habitat. Worn individuals prevailed at the field, suggesting that they arrived there during dispersal. Behaviour of the individuals occurring at the field did not differ from behaviour within the wood, suggesting that the butterflies did not recognise unsuitability of the farmland biotope. This implies that P. mnemosyne assesses suitability of its habitat using broad landscape features, rather than detailed clues. Such assessment fails to perform in modern landscapes, where sharp woodland edges replaced wide mantels of a past. We advocate restoration of wide and structurally rich woodland mantels as a conservation tool that may, besides of maintenance of open conditions in forest interiors, contribute to survival of this species.
Czech name
Absence lesního pláště vytváří ekologickou past pro jasoně dymnivkového
Czech description
Pozororování většího počtu samců jasoňů dymnivkových, kteří se snažili najít partnerky v pšeničném poli, ukazuje že tento druh poznává habitat podle základní struktury a nikoli např. podle přítomnosti živných rostlin. Protože v moderní krajině chybí přechodné struktury typu lesních plášťů, mohou se takové druhy snadno splést a uvíznout v ekologické pasti.
