Abstract:

The paper presents an analysis of RaphidiopteraandNeuroptera material collected during 1993 and 1994 in fir canopies in the following forest types: montane (Beskid Sądecki), upland (Góry Świętokrzyskie) and lowland (Wysoczyzna Łódzka). The species composition, abundance, dominance structure and ecological traits of the communities, and their phenology are discussed. The fauna was compared with that of other forests (moist pine, mixed and linden-oak-hornbeam) occurring in lowland and upland regions of the country. Of the 44 species recorded, Coniopteryx pygmaea END. (=C. parthenia NAVÁS et MARCET) and Conwentzia pineticola (END.) were the most abundant. The presence of the montane species Puncharatzeburgi BRAU., Hemerobius contumax TJED., Sympherobius pellucidus (WALK.), Nothochrysa capitata (FABR.), Nineta pallida (SCHN.) and Peyerimhoffina gracilis (SCHN.) was a characteristic feature of the fir forest fauna when compared with that of the other woodlands. Two of these species, H. contumaxand S. pellucidus, were the most constant and abundant. Dichochrysa abdominalis (BRAU.), was a species new to the fauna of Poland.
