Abstract

Field data on diurnal butterfly species collected during the Youth Reasearch Camp Stari trg pri Ložu 2000 are presented. During 15th and 23rd June 2000, 48 species of diurnal butterflies from 6 families were recorded at 22 localities in the area of Loško and Babno poljes, the surroundings of Cerkniško jezero and on Bloška planota. Among the observed species, one is included in the Anex II of the Bern Convention, 2 in the Red Data Book of European Butterfiles, 3 in the Atlas of Endangered Diurnal Butterflies of Slovenia, and 7 on the Red List of Endangered Butterflies (Macrolepidoptera) in Slovenia (Dinaric region). Data for Lycaena alciphron in the reasearch area is published for the first time. The wide distribution of Lopinga achine, a vulnerable species in Europe, is of great conservation value.
