Description
Summary:Research in the "Priestess's Garden" of Gustrita began in 2014. The agro-ecosystem combines traditional gardening with the current ecological precepts of biodiversity. As method, there were used Barber traps with the help of which 383 Coleoptera beetles were caught. After sorting the entomological material in the systematic laboratory, a number of 61 species, 38 genera, 14 families of Coleoptera were identified. The ratio of useful species (51 species) to harmful species (10 species) is clearly in favor of the first category, which proved to be highly effective in depressing and controlling phytophages.
