A comparison of ant fauna of Zakynthos with ant fauna of Samos islands is presented. Both islands have similar surface area (405.6 versus 476.4 km2) and are placed almost on the same latitude (37°) but represent the most western and the most eastern fauna complexes in Greece; 78 species and morphospecies were recorded from both islands but only 23 species are common. Key words: ants, Greece, East Aegean Islands, Samos, faunistics, taxonomy. INTRODUCTION Zakynthos is a Greek island placed in the Ionian Sea. It is the third largest of the Ionian Islands, placed 13.5 km south of Kephalonia – the largest Ionian island, and 18 km west of the Peloponnese. It is also a separate regional unit of the Ionian Islands Region. The area of the island is 405.55 km2 and it is 37 km long and 19 km wide. Its coastline is roughly 123 km. The island is very diverse, with a mountainous plateau on its western half, steep cliffs on southwest coast, and densely populated and fertile plain, with long sandy beaches and several isolated hills, on the eastern part.

  • Zakynthos, Ionian Islands
    A bit of crystal blue… Zakynthos Zakynthos is an island bursting with things to see, explore and enjoy - from the beautiful beaches, lovely traditional villages, picturesque mountain scenery, watersports, sights such as the Shipwreck and Venetian Castle and as if that wasn't enough there are also several interesting museums; an ideal way to learn more about this wonderful place and its distinguished residents. Zante Vacation Zakynthos is one of the Greek Ionian Islands located off the west coast of the Peloponnese. The island is one of the greenest and most beautiful in the archipelago and boasts some superb sandy beaches. It's the beaches of Zakynthos that make the island a magnet for the package holiday hordes that migrate here between Easter and October. The busiest seaside resorts rival those of Corfu in terms of their frantic nightlife and all-action beach scene. But if you venture further afield than the main resort areas you'll find some lovely secluded coves, dramatic mountain scenery and unspoilt inland villages. The island's mega resort is Laganas on the south coast where 14 kilometers of golden sand gently shelves into shallow water. The main beachfront is chock-a-block with bars, restaurants, hotels and apartment blocks and you'll find all manner of watersports and leisure facilities including ballooning and glass-bottomed boat rides. If you're after 24-hour partying, Brit bars, curries and quiz nights then this is the place for you. You may even find yourself swimming alongside the beautiful loggerhead sea turtles which use the soft sand of the south coast beaches as their nesting grounds.

Page 1 of 2 seaturtle.org : MTN : ARCHIVES : INDEX Marine Turtle Newsletter 49:13-14, © 1990 Successes and Failures: Conservation and Tourism on the Nesting Beaches of Laganas Bay, Zakynthos, Greece, 1989 Dimitris Margaritoulis Project Coordinator, Sea Turtle Protection Society, P.O. Box 51154, GR-145 10 Kifissia, Greece Marathonissi: This has been by far the best year [for turtles] on the island of Marathonissi; there were hardly any visitors compared to previous years. This is partially due to a posted day-guard, the regular presence of the Sea turtle Protection Society (STPS), and the efforts of the Port Police. Problems with lights from the residential areas of Laganas, Kalamaki, and Keri, and sound pollution from the disco on the islet of Agios Sostis, still exist. East Laganas: This 2 km stretch of sand extends from Zante Beach Hotel to the cliffs of Hipsolithos and is divided into three sectors (A, B, C). Sector A: This sector extends from Zante Beach Hotel to 200 m before Kalamaki Beach Hotel, and a very good situation exists here. During the day there are no umbrellas and no sun-chairs, beach users possess a high degree of awareness, and there is a satisfactory implementation of protection measures due to a joint effort by the STPS and the Port Police to safeguard the coastal entrance to the protected beach. A few ambitious onlookers try to sneak in at night, but all are denied access. In 1985 and 1986, >100 persons in one hour attempted to trespass! During the last two years (1988 -1989) the number has dwindled to 1 -10 persons per night.

  • 3. the FUNCTIONS of Ot
    3.ÊTHE FUNCTIONS OF pu 3.0.ÊOverview In this chapter, the various functions pu is associated with are explored in a well-attested and well-known variant of GreekÑCSMG. This is necessary before embarking on an account of how pu came to acquire those functions, or a dia- topic account relying on more fragmentarily attested local variants: one moves from the known to the unknown. My account of the distribution of pu is based on Mackridge (1985) and Tzar- tzanos (1991 [1946, 1963]). TzartzanosÕ Syntax remains the authoritative de- scription of Modern Greek syntax, although it is written in a traditional frame- work, which lacks the benefit of recent syntactic analysis or cross-linguistic in- sights; Mackridge provides a special study of pu within his descriptivist overview of Modern Greek. These two sources are supplemented by Joseph & Philippaki- Warburton (1987), a formal grammar of Modern Greek, and Holton, Mackridge & Philippaki-Warburton (1997), a descriptive reference grammar. Apart from trivial invented examples and the constructed sentences in Joseph & Philippaki-Warburton, all these worksÕ examples are taken from real text: TzartzanosÕ, from folk song and fables, and contemporary vernacular literature; MackridgeÕs, from contemporary literature, the Greek press, and spoken dis- course. I occasionally supplement these with spoken discourse I have recorded. As there are subtle distinctions involved in the usage of pu, it is safer to rely on found data than constructed examples, which may only reflect the authorÕs idiolect. The taxonomy outlined by Mackridge is the basis of the taxonomy I use in this chapter, with some elaboration and further subdivision, and supplemented by TzartzanosÕ taxonomy and discussion.
