Datos del proyecto
The full-scale war in Ukraine, started by the Russian Federation on February 24, 2022, has been going on for more than 2 years now. In addition to dire consequences for ordinary people, military and civilian infrastructure, agro-industrial complex and other spheres of life, there are also negative impacts on wildlife. In addition to environmental pollution and direct negative impacts on biodiversity, there is a loss of a large amount of valuable biodiversity data that has been collected by many biologists, conservationists, and national park and preserve staff due to these people being forced to evacuate. During the evacuation, they manage to save some of their work in the form of electronic data, field diaries, etc. In many cases, this is the result of a hasty evacuation. Data left in one or another format in the occupied territories will most likely be destroyed by the occupying forces during looting and shelling. Currently, the number of scientists who have become forced migrants reaches tens of people, and about 30% of national parks and smaller objects of the nature reserve fund are completely or partially occupied or destroyed (for example, the Serebrianskyi Forest). Premises of nature reserves and national parks, which were traditionally the centers of studying biodiversity in the south and east of Ukraine, were captured, looted, and the important information about nature accumulated in them was irrevocably destroyed. An example can be the manor of the Black Sea Biosphere Reserve, where due to flooding after the destruction of the Kakhovka dam in 2023, all printed Annals of Nature, which did not have digitized versions, were lost. However, even now, many scientists continue to work in Ukraine, collecting data on biodiversity, including territories that were de-occupied during the hostilities. The need to document and publish biodiversity records (fungi, plants and animals) for the global scientific community in the form of databases is important for many areas. Such studies, being relatively simple, allow to monitor the meetings of rare species, and therefore to analyze the state of populations within certain geographical units in a timely manner. Such data are indispensable for conducting research on geoinformational modeling of the distribution of species with the aim of more effective conservation. These data, due to their general availability, are important both for researchers from Ukraine and for scientists from all over the world. Today, due to the war, tens and hundreds of thousands of such registrations, presenting years of field work of researchers, may be irretrievably lost. Without this information, Ukraine will not be able to assess environmental losses, which is necessary for calculating the damage caused to our country and calculating the amount of reparations for the Russian aggressor. In other words, without having information, for example, about rare species, before the start of the war, it will be impossible to establish that they disappeared after it. One of the most well-known platforms for saving such data is the GBIF resource - Global Biodiversity Information Facility (https://www.gbif.org). The author of the project is one of the 5 people in Ukraine who have been documenting and creating data sets for uploading to the GBIF platform (through the organization-publisher Ukrainian Nature Conservation Group) for some time. Before the war, the number of published data amounted to more than 200,000 records. At the time of this application, the number of published records reaches almost 500,000. The goal of the project is to mobilize and digitize data on biodiversity registrations of Ukraine from scientists, conservationists and employees of the nature reserve fund, who became forced migrants and who, despite terrible pressure from the occupation forces, managed to save at least part of their records. It is also planned to collect records from people who continue to work in the field of biology and ecology at the moment in Ukraine. The project is a continuation of a similar project that was won and implemented during 2022-2023. As part of this project, 49,929 records (example: https://www.gbif.org/uk/dataset/791a0bbb-bf37-4ef5-b619-17e395334dfa) of biodiversity were collected and published from the entire territory of Ukraine, including the temporarily occupied territory (individual finds from the territories of other countries were also published). These data have been published in 16 datasets and are currently officially available on theGBIF platform. The findings were the result of the digitization of the dataset authors' own findings from previous years of research (the Chornobyl zone, the Azov region, the chalk outcrops of the Luhansk region, etc.), the digitization of literary sources that are currently only available in printed form (materials from the "Askania Nova" biosphere reserve, the results of geobotanical descriptions, "grey literature", etc.), collection of "citizen science" information. Based on the data published as part of the project, a number of scientific articles have been published, and several more are in the process of preparation. Biodiversity monitoring programs are ongoing in the deoccupied territories, which are based, among other things, on the data published as part of the previous project. They were also actively used during the assessment of the impact of the war on the environment (for example, during the study of the impact of the destruction of the Kakhovka HPP on the ecosystems below the Dnieper River and forecasting the possible consequences of this disaster for nature). During the new stage of the proposed project, it is planned to collect, digitalize and publish on GBIF (https://www.gbif.org/uk/publisher/ca2fd897-6108-4361-91f8-b39dc8d12d13) a total amount of 30,000 records, that were not previously published. These points will include the data from scientists who currently work in Ukraine. The data will cover entire territory of Ukraine with a species focus of deoccupied and occupied territories. All the data published within the project, will have open access for the global scientific community and Ukrainian scientists who work on the assessment of impact of war on Ukrainian biodiversity. The participants of the project (12 people) will be Ukrainian scientists (including young scientists who require special support), environmentalists and staff of objects of nature reserve fund. Also, special attention will be paid to the data collected from the objects of nature reserve fund that are situated near the areas of military actions in the north (Rivne, Zhytomyr, Kyiv, Chernihiv regions, that were places of active military actions in 2022), east (Sumy, Kharkiv, Luhansk, Donetsk regions) and south (Zaporizhzhia, Kherson, Mykolaiv, Dnipropetrovsk regions) areas of Ukraine. During the creation of the datasets, the participants will undergo special training in a form of webinars and individual consultations. Results of the project will include: published datasets, maps of the records covering the territory of Ukraine, number of citations of the data from the datasets in world scientific literature, number of trained people who will continue to collect and publish their data in the future.

Métodos de muestreo
Several entomological methods were used: the net mowing method, the soil trap method, and light trapping of insects. The main method of collection is a light trap. With the onset of dusk 2 arc-mercury lamps of 250 W were turned on, fixed at a height of 2-2.5 m from the ground surface against white screens. Catching butterflies continued until dawn. Insects were mounted on entomological needles or placed in mattresses for further identification. Some species that are easy to identify were recorded without catching. Butterflies were collected by hand in places where they stay during the day (vegetation, trunks and stumps, fences, walls of buildings, etc.). With this method, some species were found that did not fly to the light, and it was also possible to collect material where it was impossible to use the lamps. Species were identified by external morphological features and genital preparations.
| Área de Estudio | The “Hetmanskyi” (Hetman) National Nature Park is located in the southeastern part of Sumy region on the territory of Okhtyrka administrative district. The park includes sections of Vorskla river floodplain, the river itself, the floodplain terraces and the right root bank of the river in some places. The Park does not have a continuous border and consists of separate contours, separated from each other, or connected by the river bed. The total length of Vorskla within the Sumy region is 122 km, accordingly, so is the length of the park. In terms of forest vegetation and agricultural production zoning, the territory of the Park belongs to the middle part of the Left Bank Forest Steppe, and in terms of agro-climate, it is included in the second agro-climatic area - moderately warm, moderately humid. It is characterized by the following indicators: - the sum of temperatures for the period with a temperature above 10º is 2500-2650ºС; - the amount of precipitation that falls at this time is 280-310 mm, and in general for the year - 500-575; - the hydrothermal coefficient for the warm part of the year is 1.1-1.2. In general, the climate of the Park location is moderately continental with a continentality factor of 45%. Despite the high degree of anthropogenic impact the river basin has preserved a variety of landscapes of the left-bank forest-steppe – from lowland floodplains and sphagnum bogs to relict indigenous forests characterised by rich resource potential, gene pool of flora and fauna, historical and cultural monuments that require urgent protection and environmentally sound sustainable use. The authors would like to express their gratitude to the director of the “Hetmanskyi” National Nature Park, the park's security service, and the students of the Sumy State Polytechnic University named after A.S. Makarenko for their help in collecting insects. Sincerely grateful to the NGO “Ukrainian Nature Conservation Group” for help in placing data in the GBIF system. |
