Faltýnek Fric, Zdeněk ; Konvička, Martin ; Rindoš, Michal ; Sucháčková Bartoňová, Alena ; Spitzer, Lukáš ; Vrba, Pavel
The methodology summarizes the principles of the habitat conservation of several butterflies - Phengaris arion, Parnassius apollo and Colias myrmidone, species specialized to dry grasslands, rock screes and similar habitats, under different scenarios of climate change. Maps of future climatically suitable habitats are included, together with an analysis of the possibilities of assisted colonization.

The material compiles conservation measures and methods for the care of endangered butterflies of open forests, protected by the EU Habitat Directive in the Czech Republic and under climate changes. These species are Euphydryas maturna, Lopinga achine, Parnassius mnemosyne, Coenonympha hero, and partially also Zerynthia polyxena. It results from predictions of vegetational and climatic changes of forest habitats, and outlooks of forest and water management conditions.

Ground beetles (Coleoptera: Carabidae) as bioindicator of natural and anthropogenic habitats
SPITZER, Lukáš
The ground beetles are one of the most worthwhile model groups of organisms for the indication of quality of environment due to their advantages such as simple identification, well known ecology of most species and described distribution. In this thesis I present the suitability of assemblages of ground beetles to evaluate the conservation value in two types of environment: (1) open forest in medium and lower altitudes, (2) post-mining biotopes as quarries and black coal dumps. I also discuss possible limitation of ground beetles as valid bioindicators and I recommend multi-taxonomical approach in ecological studies.
