Description
MACulinea Butterflies of the Habitats Directive and European Red List as Indicators and Tools for Habitat Conservation and MANagement.
The EU-funded project MACMAN "Maculinea Butterflies of the Habitats Directive and European Red List as Indicators and Tools for Habitat Conservation and Management" started in February 2002 with a runtime of 48 months. Maculinea butterflies are typical representatives of endangered European biodiversity. All species are listed by the IUCN as globally threatened, and for all species Europe is an important part of their distributions and thus the special responsibility of Europe. The project has four main objectives:

to increase knowledge in inter- and intra-specific variation in the functional ecology of Maculinea systems across Europe
to assess the suitability of Maculinea butterflies as indicators of biodiversity along a European transect
to develop standards for monitoring Maculinea butterflies as indicators and tools for grasslands and their management
to promulgate and exploit these monitoring standards.
