Monitoring ohrožených druhů v přírodní rezervaci Uhliska a využití lokality pro vzdělávání a cestovní ruch
Holčík, Tomáš
The diploma thesis is devoted to the mapping of endangered animal species in the Uhliska nature reserve. The theoretical part deals with the description of plant and animal species from the point of view of taxonomy and bionomy. In the practical part, I focus on monitoring the occurrence of endangered species of spotted bluebird and marsh bluebird. The result of the monitoring will be graphs with the occurrence of individual species, the representation of the sexes of butterflies and the occurrence of the host plant of the bloodsucker toten. In the second part, the questionnaire examines public awareness of this area, attendance and satisfaction with information about this area. In the second part of the questionnaire, the thesis examines the satisfaction of the respondents with the cooperation of the municipality and the Department of the Environment, or a potential agreement with the introduction of hypotourism in the area.

Vliv refaunace velkými herbivory na vybrané skupiny hmyzu
VODIČKOVÁ, Veronika
This thesis studies the impact of refaunation by wild large ungulates on the butterflies, aculeate Hymenoptera, and Orthoptera assemblages. The data collection in field were undertaken in 2019 and 2020 within nine localities refaunated by large ungulates across the Czech Republic. Plots within the grazing enclosures were compared with controls, life history traits ordinations and comparisons of function traits diversities were used to interpret the patterns. Responses of the insect groups to refaunation are taxon specific, but generally, large ungulates contribute to creation and maintenance of functionally more diverse insect communities.

Transektový monitoring motýlů České republiky: Výsledky z prvních sedmi let
KOLLROSS, Jan
The thesis presents data from butterfly transects monitoring, carried out for 7 years on 36 transects established both within nature reserves and unprotected landscapes throughout the Czech Republic and walked three times a month between April and September. Only seven transects were monitored for the whole monitoring period. There were 192 771 individual butterfly records on 127 species of butterflies and burnet moths, i.e. 76.5% of the Czech fauna of the targeted groups). Data on their abundances are for the first time available for the Czech Republic. The distribution of individual species abundances approximated a lognormal model. The abundant species were generalists of non-wooded habitats, which prosper in the intensively managed landscapes of the Czech Republic. Trends of abundance, determined by the TRIM program, were estimable for 92 species. Over the monitored period, the relative abundance of nine species significantly decreased, while those of of seven species significantly increases. The remaining 76 did not display unequivocal trends, but still, 17 are likely increasing and 29 likely decreasing. Comparing the trends with the life history and bioclimatic traits of the butterflies showed that species whose abundance did not change possess traits typical for generalist butterflies (mobile species, overwintering in later life stages, longer flight period etc.), while decreases were more common among thermophilic species. Splitting the analyses for data originating from reserve vs. unprotected areas suggested that mesophilic species and species of more advanced successional stages prosper outside of reserves, whereas thermophilic species tend to decline there, and that an opposite pattern applies to reserves. I discuss recommendations for future of the monitoring Czech butterfly monitoring scheme.

The 'Butterfly' in the Poetry of Emily Dickinson
Hübnerová, Petra ; Veselá, Pavla (advisor) ; Quinn, Justin (referee)
A B S T R A C T This thesis explores the significance of the butterfly motif in the poetry of Emily Dickinson. The first two parts form the theoretical background of the thesis, i.e. they deal with the life and poetry of Dickinson with focus on the poems on nature (and insects). The butterfly motif is introduced from the perspective of mythology in different cultures of the world and then within a framework of English and American literature. The practical part establishes, on the basis of the analysis of fifty poems in total, two main thematic areas: the butterfly as a symbol of beauty and the butterfly as a product (or part) of metamorphosis. In addition to emphasizing the individual thematic contexts in which the butterfly appears in Dickinson's poetry, the thesis also tries to determine the symbolic value of the motif in her verse.
