Abstract

In the territory of the Listové Lake Nature Reserve research on the family Syrphidae was conducted on two study areas during the years 2021 and 2022. Over the observed period, a total of 1108 individuals belonging to 29 species were captured and classified. Based on the ecosoziological assessment, Neoascia interrupta and Parhelophilus versicolor belonged to vulnerable species, and were abundant in the study area. Among the species preferring the wetland habitat, Parhelophilus versicolor showed eudominant representation during both years. According to the biological assessment, it can be stated that both study areas were relatively balanced in terms of species diversity, the number of vulnerable species, and the total number of species. However, in terms of ecological significance, the study area located in the southern part of the reserve received a higher rating.
