                </b>Countries in Eastern Europe still contain many
                extensively managed meadows with a wealth of insect and
                plant diversity. Currently, many of these meadows are
                faced with land use changes. Therefore, it is essential
                to gather baseline data about pollination networks and
                services to inform management decisions. This current
                project seeks to uncover the importance of pollinator
                interactions by utilizing different techniques, such as
                molecular analysis, flow cytometry and morphological
                identification, to identify pollinators and assess their
                importance in pollination. The research questions
                include (1) finding the difference in pollination
                network structure between different land-use types and
                (2) comparing visitation networks to pollen transport
                networks.<br class="">

                <b class=""><b class="">Abstract L. Zoller<br class="">
                  </b></b>The majority of the world´s plants rely on
                animal pollinators for reproduction, making pollination
                a key ecosystem service for the maintenance of natural
                and cultivated plant communities. However, pollinators
                are experiencing a severe global decline. Amongst other
                anthropogenic drivers, climate change is considered
                responsible for this decline. In arctic and mountainous
                regions, climate change is projected to be especially
                pronounced. Understanding the impact of climate change
                on ecosystems is challenging, since the effects may take
                decades to transpire. We aim to overcome that challenge
                by using a historical dataset collected by F. Silén in
                the summers of 1895-1900. He recorded flower visitors of
                87 different plant species in the surroundings of
                Kittilä, Finland, providing us with a valuable insight
                on plant-pollinator interactions from over a century
                ago. In my talk I´m going to give you a broad overview
                of the project, where we resample plant-pollinator
                interaction networks in Kittilä and compare them with
                the historical data in order to explore the changes that
                occurred during the last century in plant-pollinator
                networks in high northern latitudes.<b class=""><b
