Lycaena dispar, Pulsatilla grandis

The site is situated to the south from the village Zlatá Baňa. Geomorphologically it belongs to the subunit Slanské vrchy Hills. The site is a part of the outstanding cauldron depression, which represents the central volcanic zone of Zlatá Baňa stratovolcano. Surface of the site is built of the hydrothermally metamorphosed andesite complex of rocks. Thick layers of rhyolite volcanoclastics and sediments of Lower Miocene form the basement. According to the relief type, the area belongs to strongly dissected uplands. Various types of grasslands with the solitary trees or groups of shrubs and/or trees cover the major part of the site. Due to the succession processes trees and shrubs cover even larger parts of the site. Many nationally important species occur in the site, e.g. animals: Sorex minutus, Crocidura suaveolens, Rana temporaria; plants: Lilium martagon, Gladiolus imbricatus, Platanthera bifolia.

The site is a part of the Special Protection Area (SPA) Slanské vrchy and it is also a part of the Important Bird Area (IBA) Slanské vrchy. Part of the site is protected as the Nature Reserve Pusté pole that was established in 1983. Abundant population of the annex plant species Pulsatilla grandis has been recorded in the site. Occurrence of protected and critically endangered species of Slovak flora Salix starkeana deserves special attention. The site is one of 3 known localities of the species in Slovakia. Occurrence of 9 bird species has been recorded on the site, e.g.: Crex crex, Lanius collurio, Alauda cristata.

Abandonment of traditional land use (grazing, hand mowing) has enabled succession processes and development of grassland communities towards the forest communities.
