Abstract
Abstract The aim of the research, conducted from April to October 2018–2019, was to characterize the bee populations (Apiformes) in phytosociological diverse grassland areas of Cisowsko-Orłowiński Landscape Park (C-OLP), located in Małopolska Upland. Such a characteristic was a crucial condition to perform further steps aimed at preventing threats to these insects. The transect method and Moericke traps were applied to sample bees. 126 bee species were recorded in four research areas with Apidae family representatives being dominant (44.9%). The transect method proved more efficient than the traps since it provided 123 insect species. Species diversity H’ and equivalence J’ indices reached the highest parameters in fields (FI) and meadows (ME) and the lowest in xerothermic grasslands (XG). Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient demonstrated positive and strong correlation of variables H’ and J’ and S. It applied to both the transect method and the traps, the latter demonstrating bigger correlation.
