The ICZEGAR is returning to Thessaloniki after 17 years, carrying a long and successful tradition of 42 years. This experience has demonstrated that ICZEGAR is an important crossroad for scientific contact, information exchange, exploration of new ideas, and cooperation building among scientists working on a wide range of subjects on the animal diversity of the eastern Mediterranean region and beyond. In this way, the 14th ICZEGAR aims to present the most recent work related to the systematics, phylogeny, biogeography, ecology, evolution, and conservation of animal species at a biodiversity hotspot. Ιn addition to the four abstracts submitted by the invited speakers, a total of 177 abstracts were submitted from which 82 were accepted as oral presentations and 95 as posters. Oral presentations were grouped in 14 sessions that are outlined in the programme along with the round tables and discussions on hot issues of biogeography and ecology of Greece and adjacent regions. Almost 500 authors from 33 countries across the globe submitted their work; all continents, except Antarctica, are represented. The majority of abstracts were submitted from Greece followed by Turkey, Algeria, Czech Republic and Republic of North Macedonia. Most animal taxa, from marine invertebrates to land vertebrates, are represented in these works, all contributing to the understanding of the patterns and processes that shaped the richly diverse fauna of the region. The 14th ICZEGAR will be hosted at the conference centre of Aristotle University’s Research Dissemination Center (KEDEA Building, Tritis Septemvriou Str., Aristotle University Campus, Thessaloniki, Greece), also known as the Red Building, which was granted by the Research Committee of Aristotle University of Thessaloniki. On behalf of the Organizing Committe Prof. Dionisios Youlatos School of Biology Aristotle University of Thessaloniki III International Congress on the Zoogeography and Ecology of Greece and Adjacent Regions PROCEEDINGS Sponsors The organizers would like to thank the Research Committee, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki for granting the auditoria and the foyer of the KEDEA Building.

  • MACEDONIA Th Th 27 - 28 October 2013
    MACEDONIA th th 27 - 28 October 2013 www.bargainbirdingclub.com “Value for money bird watching trips for birders on a budget” Introduction: Macedonia is a geographical and historical region of Greece in the southern Balkans (not to be confused with the Former Yugoslavian Republic of Macedonia just over the border). Macedonia is the largest and second most populous Greek region and alongside Thrace, Thessaly and Epirus, is collectively referred to as ‘Northern Greece’ (hence the title of the book by Steve Mills ‘Birding in Northern Greece’, which covers this area in great detail.) The region incorporates most of the territories of ancient Macedon, a kingdom ruled by the Argeads whose most celebrated members were Alexander the Great and his father Philip II. We concentrated our birding on Lake Kerkini in the north of the region near the Bulgarian border, and Angelohori Lagoon, just south of Thessaloniki. Itinerary: Sunday 27th October 2013 Fly London Gatwick toThessaloniki with easyJet Pick up hire car and self-bird Angelohori Lagoon and saltpans o/n Holiday Inn, Thessaloniki Mon. 28th Oct. 2013: Drive to Kerkini to meet guide Guided birding around Lake Kerkini o/n Holiday Inn, Thessaloniki Tues. 29th Oct. 2013: Drive to Kerkini to meet guide Guided birding in foothills of Kerkini (Belles) Mountains o/n Holiday Inn, Thessaloniki Wed. 30th Oct. 2013: Early morning repeat visit to Angelohori Lagoon Drop off hire car Fly Thessaloniki to London Gatwick with easyJet “Value for money bird watching trips for birders on a budget” Sunday 27th October 2013 An early (06.55hrs) Easyjet flight from Gatwick saw us land at Thessaloniki at 12.10pm local time.

  • Early Stages of Fishes in the Western North Atlantic Ocean Volume
    ISBN 0-9689167-4-x Early Stages of Fishes in the Western North Atlantic Ocean (Davis Strait, Southern Greenland and Flemish Cap to Cape Hatteras) Volume One Acipenseriformes through Syngnathiformes Michael P. Fahay ii Early Stages of Fishes in the Western North Atlantic Ocean iii Dedication This monograph is dedicated to those highly skilled larval fish illustrators whose talents and efforts have greatly facilitated the study of fish ontogeny. The works of many of those fine illustrators grace these pages. iv Early Stages of Fishes in the Western North Atlantic Ocean v Preface The contents of this monograph are a revision and update of an earlier atlas describing the eggs and larvae of western Atlantic marine fishes occurring between the Scotian Shelf and Cape Hatteras, North Carolina (Fahay, 1983). The three-fold increase in the total num- ber of species covered in the current compilation is the result of both a larger study area and a recent increase in published ontogenetic studies of fishes by many authors and students of the morphology of early stages of marine fishes. It is a tribute to the efforts of those authors that the ontogeny of greater than 70% of species known from the western North Atlantic Ocean is now well described. Michael Fahay 241 Sabino Road West Bath, Maine 04530 U.S.A. vi Acknowledgements I greatly appreciate the help provided by a number of very knowledgeable friends and colleagues dur- ing the preparation of this monograph. Jon Hare undertook a painstakingly critical review of the entire monograph, corrected omissions, inconsistencies, and errors of fact, and made suggestions which markedly improved its organization and presentation.

  • Biogeographical Homogeneity in the Eastern Mediterranean Sea. II
    Vol. 19: 75–84, 2013 AQUATIC BIOLOGY Published online September 4 doi: 10.3354/ab00521 Aquat Biol Biogeographical homogeneity in the eastern Mediterranean Sea. II.

Based on literature records and original samples, we review here the knowledge of the Lebanese marine bivalve biota, tracing its changes during the last 170 yr. The updated checklist of bivalves of Lebanon yielded a total of 114 species (96 native and 18 alien taxa), accounting for ca. 26.5% of the known Mediterranean Bivalvia and thus representing a particularly poor fauna. Analysis of the 21 taxa historically described on Lebanese material only yielded 2 available names. Records of 24 species are new for the Lebanese fauna, and Lioberus ligneus is also a new record for the Mediterranean Sea. Comparisons between molluscan records by past (before 1950) and modern (after 1950) authors revealed temporal variations and qualitative modifications of the Lebanese bivalve fauna, mostly affected by the introduction of Erythraean species. The rate of recording of new alien species (evaluated in decades) revealed later first local arrivals (after 1900) than those observed for other eastern Mediterranean shores, while the peak in records in conjunc- tion with our samplings (1991 to 2010) emphasizes the need for increased field work to monitor their arrival and establishment.

Biology of Organisms and Systems (Zoology), Catedrático Rodrigo Uría s/n, 33071 Oviedo, Spain Corresponding author: [email protected] Handling Editor: Marco Oliverio Received: 21 April 2014; Accepted: 3 July 2015; Published on line: 20 January 2016 Abstract A previous molecular study has revealed that the Mediterranean reef-building vermetid gastropod Dendropoma petraeum comprises a complex of at least four cryptic species with non-overlapping ranges. Once specific genetic differences were de- tected, ‘a posteriori’ searching for phenotypic characters has been undertaken to differentiate cryptic species and to formally describe and name them. The name D. petraeum (Monterosato, 1884) should be restricted to the species of this complex dis- tributed around the central Mediterranean (type locality in Sicily). In the present work this taxon is redescribed under the oldest valid name D. cristatum (Biondi, 1857), and a new species belonging to this complex is described, distributed in the western Mediterranean. These descriptions are based on a comparative study focusing on the protoconch, teleoconch, and external and internal anatomy. Morphologically, the two species can be only distinguished on the basis of non-easily visible anatomical features, and by differences in protoconch size and sculpture.

The study of the Portuguese marine ichthyofauna has a long historical tradition, rooted back in the 18th Century. Here we present an annotated checklist of the marine fishes from Portuguese waters, including the area encompassed by the proposed extension of the Portuguese continental shelf and the Economic Exclusive Zone (EEZ). The list is based on historical literature records and taxon occurrence data obtained from natural history collections, together with new revisions and occurrences.

Biological parameters of Luciobarbus callensis populates Beni-Haroun dam, north- eastern Algeria. Biodiversitas 21: 5691-5697. Fish age and growth data mainly assist many ichthyologists to understand the life history features of species and populations Growth is a major process of fish biology, and considered as one of the key processes of length- structured models of fishes. Thus, the present study was devoted to studying growth of an autochthonous species (Luciobarbus callensis), populating the dam of Beni-Haroun (Mila city, northeast of Algeria), and is known for its socio-economic value and aquaculture interest. The study was conducted on a sample of 257 fish individuals during the period 2015-2016. The age of L. callensis was determined by using the scalimetry method, providing easier sampling and reading procedures, and also high precision. Fish sexes were identified via the observation of gonads, by naked eye based on gonad shape and color, where the number of females was higher (165) than males (92).The obtained results revealed a maximum longevity of seven years of L.
