With the arrival of spring, we headed to South Moravia again to continue with our monitoring of insects and vegetation on selected green roofs. Due to unstable weather last year, we missed spring sampling on several roofs in Brno and its surroundings. The spring sampling is thus now completed. In addition, we have expanded our monitoring to roofs in Zaječí and Hodonín, where we will observe vegetation development and invertebrate occurrence throughout the year.
During our visit to the House of Nature in the Hodonínská Dúbrava, we checked not only the green roof but also a nearby sand dune. This rare habitat represents an important nesting site for several species of solitary bees, such as Colletes cunicularius and Andrena sp. (see the photos below).
This project is co-financed with state support from the Technology Agency of the Czech Republic under the Programme Prostředí pro život. This project was funded under the National Recovery Plan from the European Instrument of Recovery and Resilience Facility.
