Maculinea information sheet published!
New information sheet in the series of “The Mozaic Project in the communities of Borşa and Dăbâca”
05-06-2012
Within the
series "The Mozaic Project in the communities of Borşa and Dăbâca"
we have published a new information sheet about the Blues (genus
Maculinea) and their ecology.
These
Europe-wide endangered butterflies have highly specialised
ecological requirements, which include certain host plants as well
as host ants from the genus Myrmica, and their occurrence
depends on low-impact farming.
You can find
more about the relationship of these factors, the lifecycle of the
Blues and the importance of the Hills of Cluj for the conservation
of this butterfly genus in the information sheet "Maculinea
Butterflies".
