Dry grassland within the urban matrix acts as favourable habitat for different pollinators including endangered species

This study highlights the potential of urban dry grasslands for diverse pollinator communities wild bees and hoverflies, including rare endangered species. By using pan trap sampling on 49 sites distributed across environment, responses bee hoverfly to features at two spatial scales (urban matrix local habitat) were examined. A total 1246 individuals (Syrphidae) from 31 species 1463 (Apoidea) 107 collected. Our analysis showed that hoverflies are impacted by floral resources, whereas only respond patch size habitat scale additionally non-native pollinator-friendly plants. Given different we recommend multi-taxon approaches conservation practice. Urban diversity plants, species, should be conserved promoted support diversity.
