Journal Title: KULON - Year 2016, Vol 21, Issue
Abstract
We investigated ladybirds overwintering in agricultural landscape near Brzozówka in Kampinos Forest (Central Poland). Altogether, 180 samples of litter were collected in six habitats: on psammophilous grassland, under Scots pines Pinus sylvestris on fallow, in patches of mixed pine and alder forests, and under freestanding oaks. In total, we recorded 141 ladybird individuals representing seven species: Anatis ocellata, Coccinella septempunctata, Coccinula quatuordecimpustulata, Exochomus quadripustulatus Hippodamia tredecimpunctata, Propylea quatuordecimpunctata, Psyllobora vigintiduopunctata, and Tytthaspis sedecimpunctata. The dominant species was C. septempunctata (111 individuals), followed by H. tredecimpunctata (15 ind.). The relatively high numbers of H. tredecimpunctata hibernating in the litter under pines is interesting. This species is associated with humid habitats in the growing season and was recorded in very low numbers in previous studies on the hibernation of ladybirds in Kampinoski National Park.
