Assemblages of flower-visiting insects in clear-cuts are rich and dynamic
Clear-cuts in production forests provide an open, sunny environment, with an abundance of nectar, as well as exposed soil and woody debris. This makes them a potential habitat for several groups of insects that typically use open habitats like grassland,
