It is desirable to update scientific knowledge on key aspects of forest biodiversity protection and implement it more effectively into forestry practice. A review was prepared across the Web of Science Core Collection database, searching in the “Topic” section, using a key words string: ((biodiversity OR „biological diversity“) AND („forest management“ OR forestry) AND „central Europe“). Particular attention should be paid to ending the clear-cutting and monocultures cultivation, as the most significant forms of intensive management. It is necessary to focus on the restoration of a varied tree species composition with respect for succession, the protection of old-growth forest habitats and their structures, as well as the restoration of open forests and the renewal of historical management forms (e.g. coppicing and forest grazing). In the interest of biodiversity, a combination of integrative and segregative management can be highly recommended. Reserves are essential as habitats for the most endangered species, but their role must be supported and complemented by integrative management in commercial forests. Such integrative management should emulate natural disturbances regime, predominantly with mixed severity.
