Proposal of ecological classification of centipede, millipede and terrestrial isopod faunas for evaluation of habitat quality in Czech Republic

Original language description

Terrestrial invertebrates are frequently used for evaluation of habitat quality. Centipedes, millipedes and terrestrial isopods can be used for this purpose as well, due to their life history parameters and sufficient number of representatives of our fauna (in total 188 species for the Czech Republic). The proposed scheme divides all species into three categories after their habitat requirements: relic (restricted to natural, undisturbed habitats), adaptable (able to colonise both undisturbed and moderately disturbed habitats), and eurytopic (colonising different biotopes include heavily anthropically disturbed sites). Proportion of species of individual categories at locality is possible to use for evaluation of its human disturbance. Possible application is demonstrated using known faunistic data from six different areas differing in level of naturalness and in size respectively.
