Bemerkungen/Beschreibung

From the insect conservationist's point of view, grassland management should include as few treatments as possible, but also as many as necessary for reducing nutrient content and preventing growth of trees and shrubs.  (NICKEL & ACHTZIGER 2005) 

Because of their species richness, high abundance, often high adaption to host plant(s) and the knowledge about their morphology, biology, ecology, distribution and threat status, Planthoppers and Leafhoppers (Figure 1) are known to be excellent bioindicators for all kinds of grasslands in Europe (ACHTZIGER 1999; ACHTZIGER & NICKEL 1997, MARCHAND 1953, WALTER 1998). Nevertheless most of the publications so far concern grasslands in the lowlands (ACHTZIGER, NICKEL & SCHREIBER 1998; ANDRZEJEWSKA 1965, 1971, 1976 & 1991; BORNHOLDT 1991; BURI et. al. 2013 in prep; EMMRICH 1966; HAHN 1996; HILDEBRANDT 1995; HOLLIER et al. 1994; HOLZINGER & NICKEL 2008; NICKEL & ACHTZIGER 2005; NICKEL & HILDEBRANDT 2003; NIEDRINGHAUS 1997 & 1999; MORRIS 1981a, 1981b, 1990 & 1991; PRESTIGE 1982, REMANE 1958; RÖSCH et al. 2013; SCHIEMENZ 1969). 

Since 1999 several studies concerning meadow management of subalpine and alpine Leafhoppers and Planthoppers communities had taken place mostly in the Austrian Gesäuse National Park (BRUNNER et al. 1999 unpubl.; KOMPOSCH & HOLZINGER 2005, ÖKOTEAM 2005 unpubl., 2010 unpubl., 2012 unpubl., 2013a unpubl.). Further studies in the northern calcareous Alps in Salzburg and Bavaria (ÖKOTEAM 2013b) and one in the Swiss canton Valais are in preparation.
