Описание
This dataset contains occurrence records of protected species of insects observed in Italy. The data were collected through a citizen science initiative involving volunteers who contributed their observations with the aim of documenting and monitoring the distribution of the target species throughout the country, for the requirements of Articles 11 and 17 of the Habitats Directive. This initiative was developed, launched and initially funded through the LIFE11 NAT/IT/000252 project, titled “Monitoring of insects with public participation” (MIPP) which ran from 2012 to 2017. After the conclusion of the MIPP project, the citizen science initiative continued under national agreements, was rebranded as "InNat" and was concluded in 2024. The target species were 30 species of protected insects. The observations were made by volunteers and each record includes the date and location of the observation, the species identified and a photograph of the insect (with a few exceptions where records lack photos). The dataset contains 5975 records. The data gathered provided a significative improvement in the knowedge of the species distribution, information on the ecology of the target species at national level and insights for conservation actions (Campanaro et al. 2017, Zapponi et al. 2017, Redolfi De Zan et al. 2023).

Данные проекта
The Life Project “Monitoring of insects with public participation” (LIFE11 NAT/IT/000252) had as the main objective to develop and test methods for the monitoring of five beetle species listed in the Annexes of the Habitats Directive (92/43/EEC): Osmoderma eremita (hermit beetle, Scarabaeidae), Lucanus cervus (European stag beetle, Lucanidae), Cerambyx cerdo (great capricorn beetle, Cerambycidae), Rosalia alpina (rosalia longicorn, Cerambycidae) and Morimus asper/funereus (morimus longicorn, Cerambycidae). These developed methods are the result of extensive fieldwork and ensure scientific validity, ease of execution and limited labour costs. The data gathered represent an important contribution to the monitoring of these target species in Italy and the methods developed are intended for use by the local management authorities and staff of protected areas. The detailed description of methods and the results for each species are published in separate articles of this special issue of Nature Conservation (Carpaneto et al. 2017). A second objective of the project was to gather faunistic data with a Citizen Science approach, using the web and a mobile application software (app) specifically built for mobile devices. The validation of the records collected by the citizens was carried out by experts. Dissemination activities represented the principal way to contact and engage citizens for the data collection and also offered the possibility of providing information on topics such as Natura 2000, the Habitats Directive, the role of monitoring in nature conservation, the importance of forest ecosystems and the ecological role of the saproxylic insects. An innovative method tested during the project was the training of a dog for searching and monitoring the elusive hermit beetle; the trained dog also added a “curiosity” factor to attract public attention towards this rare insect and the issues mentioned above.

Методы сбора
Observations of individuals were conducted in the field both on occasional basis and as part of planned campaigns
| Охват исследования | The occurrence data came from a citizen science initiative that cover all the Italian national territory without a specific sampling frequency |
|---|---|
| Контроль качества | Each occurrence record is a provided with a picture or a detailed description. This information have been used for the data validation by entomological experts |
Описание этапа методики:
- Data have been collected by volunteers under a national citizen science project. Participants have been asked to search for the target species during their free-time or dedicated trips. The volunteers upload the data using a dedicated platform (website and mobile application Android/IOs) in which a number of mandatory information were required. Data enter a validation process, made by entomological experts (for correct species identification, spatial and temporal data). The validated records were published on the project website.
