Citizen Science - Tagfaltermonitoring
The nature park Neusiedler See - Leithagebirge is rich in diverse habitats. More than 100 butterflies have been counted in the nature park area, including rare and endangered species. To get more knowledge about the contribution of butterflies in the area, the nature park takes part in the European Project eBMS (European Butterfly Monitoring System). Volunteers out of the local population were recruited as butterfly-counters by social media campaigning. Then the volunteers were trained in cooperation with the Austrian Butterfly Conservation Society and are now in action for the project. They count butterflies along a defined transect regularly over the season. The data are collected in a European-wide scheme and are evaluated by scientists to get knowledge of the contribution of butterflies in Europe, which is essential for the development of protection measures for endangered species.
