Sammanfattning

Forest management has actively reduced proportion of deciduous trees in Fennoscandian managed forests. Several species of cryptogams and invertebrates depend on deciduous trees, among which aspen (Populus tremula L.) is especially important. The occurrence and abundance of several terrestrial gastropod species are linked to aspen leaf litter. However, the impact of forestry practices on the gastropod communities is largely unknown. We examined difference in species richness, diversity (H'), and species composition in the gastropod fauna in aspen stands in a 400 km(2) managed boreal forest area in northern Sweden by collecting them with masonite boards from 20 selected stands. We contrasted isolated (>500 m from the neighboring stand) and aggregated (
