Abstract:

This paper presents an original methodological attempt at natural valorization based on the analysis of epigeic invertebrate communities. The essence of the method is in determining the proximity of the real community towards the standard one, the latter elaborated so that it is representative for the ecosystem of given type. The survey, the assessment of the natural value and the evaluation of the anthropopressure are all based on the test describing epigeic communities of invertebrates with the use of seven indices: I. Per cent share: (1) per cent share of characteristic - exclusive species F3; and total of characteristic exclusive and choosing species F3+F2; (2) the index of community uniqueness Sc; (3) the index ofcommunity stability Nc; (4) the index of species diversity H’; (5) the index of community natural quality Bc; (6) the index of dynamic heterogeneity DHt; (7) the index of habitat species capacity Pc
