The presented thesis deals with habitat requirements, population size and survival of the Spotted Fritillary (Melitaea didyma) in national nature reserve The Mohelno Serpentinite steppe. The estimated population size is about two thousands of individuals, and the individuals frequently migrate between habitat patches. The optimal habitat structure is characterized by grassy pasture steppe with occurrence of larval host plant and abundant nectar plants for adults. The most frequent male behaviour is searching for females, while the females spend most time by nectaring. Caterpillars were found on two species of family Scrophulariaceae.
