Moths and butterflies (Lepidoptera) communities were investigated in the post-harvested valley peat bog Soumarský Most in the Bohemian Forest during vegetation season of 2011–2016. Total 371 species of all peat bog ecological categories were recorded. The survival of moths and butterflies was interpreted under natural vegetation succession and revitalization. The Soumarský Most bog seems to be colonized by bog insect specialists (tyrphobionts and tyrphophiles) from surrounding pristine peatlands of the Vltavský Luh complex (including the Mrtvý Luh bog), which is the unique source of recolonization by relict taxa. Only small insect species proportion probably survived the heavy peat exploitation of the Soumarský Most bog in the past time.
