Abstract

In recent decades, the European Union has issued several strategies to promote the efficient use of resources, the circular economy and to address biodiversity loss and climate change. On the basis of the strategy of the European Union, during 2023, in the premises of the company Wienerberger s.r.o. carried out biomonitoring of insecta with a focus on pollinators. We conducted the research in 4 study areas representing the meadow biotope. We used the following methods for catching insects: Yellow Sticky Traps, insect traps and entomological nets. In total, we recorded 267 individuals belonging to 44 species and 12 families. There was one eudominant species, namely Apis mellifera. We recorded the highest value of diversity in study area 1 (H'=2.931) and equitability in study area 2 (E=0.9118). Through Principal Component Analysis (PCA) analysis, we noted a greater binding of species to the meadow biotope with partial planting of grass mixtures that attract butterflies and bees
