    Acrocephalus 31 (147): 175−179, 2010 A Milestone on the Road to Natura 2000 Mejnik na poti k Naturi 2000 The publication “Important Bird Areas of Macedonia: Sites of Global and European Importance” provides a fascinating insight into the natural and cultural heritage of the country. The approved list of sites now includes a wide variety of landscapes hosting bird species that have become rare or threatened in many parts of Europe. Very important is the fact that only about 21% of the national protected area network overlaps the Important Bird Areas of Macedonia. Now an assessment of the natural assets of Macedonia is available for the first time, based on a systematic approach using the international criteria developed by BirdLife International for the selection of sites under the EU Birds Directive. The first results indicate where the country hosts areas of European and even global importance, where urgent conservation measures are needed, and are excellent guidelines for the rural development and tourism. A wide range of political commitments within the European Union is aimed at preserving ecosystems and biodiversity, with various species protection provisions as well as Special Protection Areas (SPAs) identified under the Birds Directive and Sites of Community Importance (SCIs) identified under the Habitats Directive, both incorporated into the Natura 2000 (N2000) network. The publication of the “Important Bird Areas of Macedonia” prepared by the Macedonian Ecological Society (MES) as a national representative of the BirdLife International’s partnership is the first systematic assessment of Macedonia’s sites based on the internationally recognized criteria to implement the Birds Directive.

Hence the need to design a database of the Italian alimurgic flora: AlimurgITA. Only strictly alimurgic taxa were chosen, excluding casual alien and cultivated ones. The collected data come from an archive of 358 texts (books and scientific articles) from 1918 to date, chosen with appropriate criteria. For each taxon, the part of the plant used, the method of use, the chorotype, the biological form and the regional distribution in Italy were considered. The 1103 taxa of edible flora already entered in the database equal 13.09% of Italian flora. The most widespread family is that of the Asteraceae (20.22%); the most widely used taxa are Cichorium intybus and Borago officinalis. The not homogeneous regional distribution of WEPs (maximum in the south and minimum in the north) has been interpreted. Texts published reached its peak during the 2001–2010 decade. A database for Italian WEPs is important to have a synthesis and to represent the richness and Citation: Paura, B.; Di Marzio, P.; complexity of this knowledge, also in light of its potential for cultural enhancement, as well as its Salerno, G.; Brugiapaglia, E.; Bufano, applications for the agri-food system.

It was prepared by LINC LLC and local partner, the Macedonian Center for International Cooperation (MCIC). USAID Local Systems Practice June 2018 Prepared by: Craig Hempfling, LINC; Megan McDermott, LINC; Jenna White, LINC; Patrick Sommerville, LINC; Aleksandar Krzalovski, MCIC; Emina Nuredinoska, MCIC; Aleksandra Savevska, MCIC; Boris Ristovski, MCIC; Monika Bozinoska, MCIC; and Jasmina Ristovska, MCIC Front cover: Network map of Macedonian CSOs. Acknowledgements: The author(s) would like to acknowledge all of our LSP consortium partners for their input throughout the process, the valuable assistance of MCIC support staff in ensuring a thorough and timely analysis, as well as all of the organizations who took the time to participate in the Network Analysis survey. These contributions are crucial for advancing our mutual efforts towards improved local development in Macedonia. About Local Systems Practice: Local Systems Practice is a USAID-funded activity that directly assists multiple Missions, partners, and constituents to design and adaptively manage systems-based programs in complex environments. The concept has been designed to aid Missions and partners to overcome four specific challenges to effective Local Systems Practice through: a) Listening; b) Engagement; c) Discovery; and d) Adaptation. The Theory of Change underpinning the activity asserts that the application of systems tools to complex local challenges at multiple intervals throughout the program cycle will enhance the sustainability of programming, resulting in better-informed, measurable interventions that complement and reinforce the systems they seek to strengthen.

An indoor and an outdoor experiment were carried out at the Agricultural University of Athens. For the indoor experiment, the pre-sowing treatments of stratification (fresh and stratified seeds) and scarification (non-scarified, mechanical scarification and chemical scarification with sulfuric acid) were used as the main treatments, and three different temperatures (15, 20 and 25 °C) as sub-treatments. For the outdoor experiment, there were only the treatments of stratification and scarification. The stratification of asparagus seeds was found to have a positive effect on germination and vigor indices compared to non-stratified (fresh) seeds. The highest germination percentage, vigor index I and II were recorded with the stratified seeds that had been mechanically scarified in both indoor and outdoor conditions.

Some of the white Pines on Fair Haven Hill have just reached the acme of their fall;–others have almost entirely shed their leaves, and they are scattered over the ground and the walls. The same is the state of the Pitch pines. At the Cliffs I find the wasps prolonging their short lives on the sunny rocks just as they endeavored to do at my house in the woods. It is a little hazy as I look into the west today. The shrub oaks on the terraced plain are now almost uniformly of a deep red. HDT WHAT?
