The purpose of this data collection was to monitor the colonisation of excavated inland dune slacks by specialist pioneer invertebrates at Newborough Warren National Nature Reserve (NNR). The monitoring represented a continuation of work undertaken in 2013.
All invertebrates belonging to the taxa Orthoptera, Heteroptera, Auchenorrhyncha, Coleoptera, Aculeata, Diplopoda, Chilopoda, Araneae, and Opiliones that were captured during the survey were identified and counted. The abundance of individual species was recorded and corrected for trapping effort.
There was little evidence of any change in the fauna associated with the exposed dune habitat compared with 2013. However, within the slack habitats exposed by excavation, finger-searching and mapping of cast distributions revealed a marked increase in the abundance of the rove beetle Bledius subniger.
Pitfall trapping in Slack 4 also demonstrated the abundance of the ground beetles Dyschirius impunctipennis and Dyschirius politus, both of which are known predators of B. subniger. Another ground beetle, Bembidion pallidipenne, a species characteristic of embryonic slack habitats, was also found to be abundant.
It is tentatively concluded that this assemblage has increased substantially, probably as a result of successful breeding following the 2013 excavation work.
The study also highlights potential biases associated with pitfall trapping and the need for caution when comparing abundance between species captured using this method. No discernible increase was detected in species of Heterocerus or Dryops.
Slack 4 contained two distinct areas of slack habitat created by the excavation. The southern section exhibited higher soil organic content together with greater plant cover and diversity. In contrast, the northern section had sparse vegetation and lower organic content.
These environmental differences were reflected in marked differences in the invertebrate fauna of the two areas. The southern section supported species that were also present in the unexcavated slacks and that appear to require some degree of vegetation cover or shade. These species were largely absent from the more exposed excavated slack areas.

The survey methodology comprised pitfall trapping and visual searches.
To date, six of the 16 beetle species recorded from Newborough Warren that are associated with pioneer dune slacks have been recorded from the excavated slacks. These include the rove beetles Bledius subniger and Gabrius osseticus; the ground beetles Dyschirius politus and Bembidion pallidipenne; and Dryops nitidulus and Heterocerus flexuosus.
Heterocerus flexuosus was first recorded at the site in 2014, while the other five species were recorded in both 2013 and 2014.
As only Dryops nitidulus was recorded from the control site (Slack 1) in 2013, these findings suggest that the species are colonising the excavated slacks from remnant areas of suitable habitat within the dune system, rather than representing residual populations that were already present within the slacks prior to excavation.
The data will be supplied to NRW for import into Recorder 6. As this is a large dataset, additional time will be required to format the records for import.
Voucher specimens have been retained by the report author, with some specimens deposited in the collections of Liverpool Museum.
