Mektovy Stráně (Dívčí Hrady) and Asuán localities

Fieldwork has resumed at these sites since spring. At Mektovy Stráně, targeted extensive grazing with goats and sheep has been underway since April. In addition to our four-legged helpers, our autumn experiment involving the sowing of Rhinanthus species is also progressing well. At the Asuán site, grazing took place in June, followed by traditional strip and mosaic mowing in July. The area is teeming with life—burnet moths (Zygaenidae) and other insects show us the ecological vitality of the site during every visit.

Supported by the projects: Municipal biological diversity: application of modern practices to support biodiversity in cities and their surroundings (SS07010297) and Podpora biodiverzity motýlů v okolí Prokopského údolí prostřednictvím péče o nelesní stanoviště (Prague City Hall).
