Abstract:

Biomass production of the zoophagous Carabidae was estimated for associations of Vaccinio myrtilli-Pinetum, Pino-Quercetum, Tilio-Carpinetum and Circaeo-Alnetum. The production – in terms of dry weight – estimated for an association, changed in the consecutive years of the study. The yearly mean values of the production were the lowest for Vaccinio-myrtilli-Pinetum (0.765 kg · ha-1 · yr-1) and the highest for Circaeo-Alnetum (2.010 kg · ha-1 · yr-4), and seemed to be related to the amount of nitrogen in the leaf-fall.
