Studies on the Ecology and Conservation of Butterflies in Europe. Volume 2: Species Ecology along a European Gradient: Maculinea Butterflies as a Model By Josef Settele, Elisabeth Kühn & Jeremy A. Thomas
2005 | 312 Pages | ISBN: 9546422568 | PDF | 7 MB


The book contains extended abstracts on a wide variety of issues concerning the ecology and conservation of Large Blue butterflies of the genus Maculinea. It mainly consists of results of the EU funded research project MacMan (Maculinea butterflies of the Habitats' Directive and European Red List as indicators and tools for habitat conservation and management). They have been presented at a Conference held in Leipzig, 5-9th of December, 2005. Sections covered are: Maculinea as indicators; functional and trophic relations in Maculinea systems; population genetics, chemistry and physiology of Maculinea and Myrmica ants; and conservation and management for Maculinea. Keynote speakers at the Maculinea part of the conference are: Jeremy Thomas (UK), David Nash and Jacobus Boomsma (Denmark), Konrad Fiedler (Austria), Piotr Nowicki (Poland) and Thomas Hovestadt (Germany).
