Abstract:

This work presents results of the studies on responses of plant communities and ecologically diverse invertebrate communities to mountain spruce forest decline in the western part of Karkonosze Mts. (south-western Poland). It was examined how distribution and biodiversity and predator-prey relations of invertebrates (Araneae, Diptera, Protozoa) have been affected by fragmentation of thelandscape composed of residues of old-growth spruce forests, young spruce stands and deforested areas.
