Description

Within the framework of the OPKK project "Development of the System for Monitoring the Status of Species and Habitat Types" - GROUP 11: "Creation and Development of Monitoring Programs for Beetles with Capacity Building for Stakeholders in the Monitoring and Reporting System," new data on the abundance and distribution of beetle species of interest to the EU were gathered. These data were collected using methods described in the newly proposed monitoring programs, aiming to test their adequacy for long-term monitoring of species conservation status. This dataset includes observations of various species over a period 2022-2023.
