  • Growth Patterns of Hawaiian Stilt Chicks
    Wilson Bull., 11 l(4), 1999, pp. 478487 GROWTH PATTERNS OF HAWAIIAN STILT CHICKS J. MICHAEL REED,,2,8‘ ELIZABETH M. GRAY,334 DIANNE LEWIS3 LEWIS W. ORING,3 RICHARD COLEMAN,5 TIMOTHY BURR,6 AND PETER LUSCOMB7 ABSTRACT-We studied chick growth and plumage patterns in the endangered Hawaiian Stilt (Himantopus mexicanus knudseni). Body mass of captive chicks closely fit a Gompertz growth curve, revealing a growth coefficient (K) of 0.065 day- ’ and point of inflection (T) of 17 days. When chicks fledged about 28 days after hatching, they weighed only 60% of adult body mass; at 42 d, birds still were only 75% of adult mass; culmen, tarsus, and wing chord at fledging also were less than adult size. This trend of continued growth to adult size after fledging is typical for most shorebirds. After hatching, captive chicks grew more rapidly than wild chicks, probably because of an unlimited food supply. We found no evidence for adverse effects of weather on the growth of wild chicks. As with other shorebirds, the tarsus started relatively long, with culmen and then wing chord growing more rapidly in later development. Tarsal and wing chord growth were sigmoidal, whereas culmen growth was linear. We describe plumage characteristics of weekly age classes of chicks to help researchers age birds in the wild. Received 28 Dec. 1998, accepted 20 April 1999. Avian growth patterns have been studied (Himantopus mexicanus knudseni), a precocial primarily because of their relationships to the bird that is an endangered subspecies of the ecology and evolutionary history of different Black-necked Stilt.

  • Two Cases of Melanism in the Ring-Headed Dwarf Snake Eirenis Modestus (Martin, 1838) from Kastellorizo, Greece (Serpentes: Colubridae)
    Herpetology Notes, volume 11: 175-178 (2018) (published online on 20 February 2018) Two cases of melanism in the Ring-headed Dwarf Snake Eirenis modestus (Martin, 1838) from Kastellorizo, Greece (Serpentes: Colubridae) Konstantinos Kalaentzis1,*, Christos Kazilas1 and Ilias Strachinis1 Pigmentation serves a protective role in many 2016). A possible adaptive hypothesis for melanism in animals, including snakes, whether it functions in snakes is protection against sun damage (Lorioux et al., camouflage, warning, mimicry, or thermoregulation 2008; Jablonski and Kautman, 2017). (Bechtel, 1978; Krecsák, 2008). The observable The Ring-headed Dwarf Snake, Eirenis modestus colouration and pattern of a snake is the result of the (Martin, 1838), is a medium-sized colubrid snake presence of variously coloured pigments in specific reaching a maximum total length of 70 cm (Çiçek and places in the skin (Bechtel, 1978). Four different types Mermer, 2007). The Dwarf Snake inhabits rocky areas of pigment-bearing cells called chromatophores can with sparse vegetation and often hides under stones, be found in the skin of reptiles, namely melanophores, where it feeds mainly on terrestrial arthropods (Çiçek iridophores, erythrophores, and xanthophores (Bechtel, and Mermer, 2007). It is widely distributed (Fig. 1), 1978). Abnormalities in the pigment formation or the occurring mainly in the Caucasus (Armenia, southern interaction between the different types of pigment may Azerbaijan, eastern Georgia, southern Russia), Greece result in various chromatic disorders, which cause (on the islands of Alatonissi, Chios, Fournoi, Kalymnos, abnormal colouration of the skin and its derivatives Kastellorizo, Leros, Lesvos, Samiopoula, Samos, (Rook et al., 1998).

  • Herpetofaunistic Diversity of the Cres-Lošinj Archipelago (Croatian Adriatic)
    University of Sopron Roth Gyula Doctoral School of Forestry and Wildlife Management Sciences Ph.D. thesis Herpetofaunistic diversity of the Cres-Lošinj Archipelago (Croatian Adriatic) Tamás Tóth Sopron 2018 Roth Gyula Doctoral School of Forestry and Wildlife Management Sciences Nature Conservation Program Supervisors: Prof. Dr. Faragó Sándor Dr. Gál János Introduction In recent years the Croatian islands, especially those of the Cres-Lošinj Archipelago became the focus of research of herpetologists. However, in spite of a long interest encompassing more than a hundred years, numerous gaps remain in our herpetological knowledge. For this reason, the author wished to contribute to a better understanding by performing studies outlined below. Aims The first task was to map the distribution of amphibians and reptiles inhabiting the archipelago as data were lacking for several of the smaller islands and also the fauna of the bigger islands was insufficiently known. Subsequently, the faunistic information derived from the scientific literature and field surveys conducted by the author as well as available geological and paleogeological data were compared and analysed from a zoogeographic point of view. The author wished to identify regions of the islands boasting the greatest herpetofaunal diversity by creating dot maps based on collecting localities. To answer the question which snake species and which individuals are going to be a victim of the traffic snake roadkill and literature survey were used. The author also identified where are the areas where the most snakes are hit by a vehicle on Cres. By gathering road-killed snakes and comparing their locality data with published occurrences the author seeked to identify species most vulnerable to vehicular traffic and road sections posing the greatest threat to snakes on Cres Island.

Nevertheless, some man-made water bodies have proven to be valuable for biodiversity conservation as they can harbour many species. We investigated 36 man-made water bodies to determine their suitability as habitats for Odonata. Larvae were sampled in littoral, during the summer months of 2016 and 2017. At each sampling site, ten samples were collected using a benthos hand net. A total of 21 Odonata species was recorded. Odonata assemblages mainly consisted of common widespread species. Yet, at Vlačine Reservoir, located in the Dinaric Western Balkan ecoregion, we also recorded a rare and endangered Mediterranean species, Lindenia tetraphylla (Vander Linden, 1825). Aquatic and riparian vegetation, water level fluctuations and dissolved oxygen concentration had the highest influence on Odonata, showing that man- made water bodies with a well-developed riparian zone and aquatic vegetation, and with low daily and seasonal water level fluctuations, can provide suitable habitats for diverse Odonata species.

  • Foraging Behaviour and Nectar Use in Adult Large Copper Butterflies, Lycaena Dispar (Lepidoptera: Lycaenidae)

Entomol. Fennica 21: 4957. The foraging behaviour of the endangered butterfly Lycaena dispar Haw. was examined in a wet meadow in Poznañ (western Poland) in the summer of 2003. Observations showed that the males spent more time resting (11.3% compared to 5.9%) and less time nectaring (24.8% compared 35%) compared to females. The mean time of one visit on a flower was almost three times shorter in males than in females. In total, adults visited flowers of nine nectar plant species, the most fre- quentones were Inula britannica, Lychnis flos-cuculi and Cirsium arvense, which were some of themostabundantplantspecies there.We observed differ- ences of nectar plant use between sexes and generations of the butterfly, but did notconfirm preference for theplantcolour.
