Habitat 91D0 is distributed in the Scandinavian mountains, Alps, Carpathians and mountains of Bulgaria; it occurs also in the Pyrenees and is absent in the Apennines. The main part of the habitat area (84 %) is located in Sweden. Improving the conservation status of the habitat requires improvement of the habitat structure and functions in all countries except Scandinavia and Germany. The most important measure is the restoration of hydrological conditions. Other measures should ensure appropriate forest management. Peat extraction in sites should also be stopped or significantly reduced. The declaration of protected sites is very relevant for this habitat type as it could help implementation of the above-mentioned measures and prevent further pressures. Habitat restoration is needed in particular in Italy, Romania, and Slovakia, because the reported habitat area is smaller than the reference value. Habitat description Coniferous and broad-leaved forests on a humid to wet peaty substrate. Hydrological regime and high water level play the most important role. Ground or surface water is acidic and poor in nutrients (raised bogs and acid fens). These communities are generally dominated by Betula pubescens, Frangula alnus, Pinus sylvestris, Pinus rotundata and Picea abies. The undergrowth consists of various species specific to bogland or, more generally, to oligotrophic environments, such as bilberries (Vaccinium sp.), sedges (Carex sp.) and bog mosses (Sphagnum sp.). This habitat sometimes hosts hygrophytic vascular plant species of orchids (Corallorhiza trifida, Dactylorhiza maculata, D. fuchsii). Distribution in the Alpine region and coverage by Natura 2000 network The habitat is distributed in the Scandinavian mountains, Alps, Carpathians and mountains of Bulgaria; it also occurs in the Pyrenees and is absent in the Apennines. A relatively small part of the habitat area (around 20 %) is protected in the Natura 2000 network. In Bulgaria the entire national habitat area is located in Natura 2000 sites; a large part of the habitat area is located in Natura 2000 sites in Italy, Poland, and Slovenia. 2 Natura 2000 sites in the Alpine region Country Habitat Area /km2/ Coverage /%/ Number of sites Austria 1.40 23 41 Bulgaria 2.69 100 4 Finland 110-140 65-82 14 France 1.79 6 12 Germany 2-2.5 38-48 11 Italy 11.27 99 52 Poland 10.78 98 10 Romania 45-46 60-61 23 Slovakia 10-15 42-63 29 Slovenia 10.00 90 3 Spain 0.23 N/A 1 Sweden 204.00 11 50 Total 409 - 445 19 - 21 250 The table above shows the size of the habitat area in Natura 2000 sites and its proportion compared to habitat area in the whole biogeographical region (‘coverage’) as reported by MS in the 2013 Article 17 report. The number of sites was extracted from the 2015 Natura 2000 database. Biogeographical conservation status assessment Sweden and Finland host more than 90 % of the area for the habitat. Their assessments led to the overall conservation status of this habitat type in the Alpine biogeographical region being favourable. Germany also reported favourable conservations status, while eight countries indicated unfavourable- inadequate status. Changes in overall conservation status from unfavourable-inadequate to favourable are caused by the use of a different methodological approach and better data rather than a real change in conservation status. Only Slovenia indicated a genuine change when changing conservation status from favourable to unfavourable-inadequate and declining. More knowledge is needed from France, which indicated unknown habitat area. 3 Legend: MS – Member State; Overall asses – Overall assessment; % MS – percentage of the surface area in the respective Member State compared to whole biogeographical region; Ref. – reference value; Struct & func. – structure and functions; Future prosp. – future prospects; Curr.

Pressures, threats and proposed measures This habitat is threatened in most parts of Europe, the main threats being hydrological changes caused by human activities (mostly connected with forest management, drainage). The countries reported a broad range of other pressures, including (intensive?) forest management and use, removal of dead and dying trees, peat extraction, pollution of surface waters and groundwater, vegetation succession, and drought. Finland reported that the majority of the surface area of bog woodlands in the Alpine region is in established wilderness or protected areas where forestry (including drainage related to forestry measures) is not allowed and construction is restricted. There are no significant threats or pressures threatening the viability of this habitat type. Pressures with low importance are intensive grazing by semi-domesticated reindeer and damage by moth invasions (Epirrita autumnata, Operophtera brumata). 4 Code Pressure name AT BG DE FI FR IT PL RO SE SI SK A04.01 Intensive grazing L A04.02 Non intensive grazing L B01.02 Artificial planting on open ground (non-native trees) L B02 Forest and Plantation management & use M M L L M B02.01.02 Forest replanting (non native trees) M B02.02 Forestry clearance L L B02.04 Removal of dead and dying trees M L L B02.05 Non- intensive timber production (leaving dead wood/ old trees untouched) M B03 Forest exploitation without replanting or natural regrowth M B05 Use of fertilizers (forestry) L B06 Grazing in forests/ woodland L M B07 Forestry activities not referred to above M M C01.03 Peat extraction L M M L C01.03.01 Hand cutting of peat H D01 Roads, paths and railroads M L L D01.01 Paths, tracks, cycling tracks M D01.02 Roads, motorways H D05 Improved access to site L L E01 Urbanised areas, human habitation L E01.03 Dispersed habitation L L E02 Industrial or commercial areas L E03 Discharges M F03.01.01 Damage caused by game (excess population density) M G01 Outdoor sports and leisure activities, recreational activities L G01.02 Walking, horseriding and non-motorised vehicles L G01.03 Motorised vehicles L G02.02 Skiing complex

  • January Review of Butterfly, Moth and Other Natural History Sightings 2019
    Review of butterfly, moth and other natural history sightings 2019 January January started dry and settled but mostly cloudy with high pressure dominant, and it remained generally dry and often mild during the first half of the month. The second half became markedly cooler with overnight frosts and the last week saw a little precipitation, some which was occasionally wintry. With the mild weather continuing from December 2018 there were a small number of migrant moths noted in January, comprising a Dark Sword-grass at Seabrook on the 5th, a Silver Y there on the 13th and 2 Plutella xylostella (Diamond-back Moths) there on the 15th, whilst a very unseasonal Dark Arches at Hythe on the 4th may have been of immigrant origin. Dark Sword-grass at Seabrook (Paul Howe) Dark Arches at Hythe (Ian Roberts) More typical species involved Epiphyas postvittana (Light Brown Apple Moth), Satellite, Mottled Umber, Winter Moth, Chestnut, Spring Usher and Early Moth. Early Moth at Seabrook (Paul Howe) Spring Usher at Seabrook (Paul Howe) The only butterfly noted was a Red Admiral at Nickolls Quarry on the 1st but the mild weather encouraged single Buff-tailed Bumblebees to appear at Seabrook on the 7th and Mill Point on the 8th, whilst a Minotaur Beetle was attracted to light at Seabrook on the 6th. A Common Seal and two Grey Seals were noted regularly off Folkestone, whilst at Hare was seen near Botolph’s Bridge on the 1st and a Mink was noted there on the 17th. February After a cold start to the month it was generally mild from the 5th onwards.

  • First Record of the Invasive Elm Sawfly Aproceros Leucopoda Takeuchi (Hymenoptera: Argidae) in Bulgaria
    Silva Balcanica, 16(1)/2015 FIRST RECORD OF THE invasive ELM sawfly Aproceros lEUCOPOdA TAKEUCHI (HYMENOPTERA: Argidae) IN Bulgaria Danail Doychev University of Forestry – Sofia Absract East Asian sawfly Aproceros leucopoda Takeuchi (Hymenoptera: Argidae) was found for first time in Bulgaria. Adults, larvae, cocoons and typical damaged leaves were observed and collected on Ulmus minor Mill. from five sites in Western Balkan Range and Sofia. The larval damages on the host trees were too insignificant – between 1 and 2%. Key words: Aproceros leucopoda, Ulmus, invasive species, new record, Bul- garia Defoliating insects belong to the most important pests on trees in forestry and urban green spaces. Their mass outbreaks can cause considerable damages leading to high economical loses or reducing the tree ornamental effect. Along with common lepidopteran and hymenopteran phylophages, such as Lymantria dispar (L.), Eu- proctis chrysorrhoea (L.), Thaumetopoea pityocampa (Den. & Schiff.), Neodiprion sertifer (Geoff.), an extremely invasive insect pest of unknown origin, the horse chestnut leaf miner Cameraria ochridella Deschka & Dimic, has spread out in the last 20 years over whole Europe, including Bulgaria (Trenchev et al., 2000; Péré et al., 2010). Besides, another dangerous invasive insect species were also found and reported on different forest tree and shrub species in Bulgaria: Corythucha ciliata (Say) on Platanus spp. (Josifov, 1990), Gelechia senticetella (Staudinger) on Juni- perus excelsa M. B. (Mirchev et al., 1995), Fenusella hortulana (Klug) on Populus x euramericana Dode (Guinier) (Georgiev, 2006), Myzocallis walshii (Monell) on Quercus rubra L.

Mesophleps oxycedrella (Millière, 1871) is recorded for the first time in Bulgaria, feeding on female cones of Juniperus excelsa M.-Bieb. Photographs of the moth and female genitalia are provided. Key words: new record, distribution, faunistics. Introduction The Greek juniper Juniperus excelsa M.-Bieb is among the plant species with limited distribution in Bulgaria. It is known only from three localities in the southwestern part of the country. The most representative communities are found in “Tisata” Reserve on the slopes of Kresna Gorge. The other two are located in “Izgorialoto gyune” Reserve (above Krichim city) and near Asenovgrad city (Rhodope Mt.). A few lepidopteran species using J. excelsa as a larval host plant have been recorded so far: Gelechia senticetella (Staudinger, 1859) (in fact Gelechia obscuripennis (Frey, 1880), see Huemer 2019), Pammene mariana (Zerny, 1920) (Zlatkov 2008) and Lithophane (Prolitha) lapidea (Hübner, 1808) (Beshkov 1996). One of them, G. senticetella, is considered a major insect pest on this tree species in Bulgaria (Mirchev et al. 1995, Georgiev et al. 1996).

  • Life History Evolution in the Parasitoid Hymenoptera Ruth Elizabeth Traynor
    Life history evolution in the parasitoid Hymenoptera Ruth Elizabeth Traynor This thesis was submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of York Department of Biology 2004 Abstract This thesis addresses life history evolution of the parasitoid Hymenoptera. It aims to identify assumptions that should be incorporated into parasitoid life history theory and the predictions that theory should aim to make. Both two species and multi-species comparative studies as well as up-to-date phylogenetic information are employed to investigate these issues. Anecdotal observations suggest that solitary parasitoids have narrower host ranges than closely related gregarious species. There are several possible reasons for this; for example gregarious species may be able to exploit larger bodied hosts because they can fully consume the host, which may be essential for successful pupation to occur. Comparative laboratory experiments between two closely related species of Aphaereta, one of which is solitary and the other gregarious, show no difference in the extent of host range. This study does, however, suggest that differences in the realized niche that each species occupies in the field may result from life history differences between the species. These differences may themselves have arisen due to solitary or gregarious development. The first multi-species study in the thesis uses a data set, compiled for the parasitic Hymenoptera by Blackburn (1990), to address factors that may influence body size and clutch size. This study builds on previous analyses of the data (see Blackburn 1990, 1991a/b, Mayhew & Blackburn 1999) through the use of up-to-date phylogenetic information. Evidence is found that the host stage attacked by a parasitoid is associated with both body and clutch size, due to the amount of resources available for the developing parasitoids.

Therefore we held eight Indoor Meetings in 2011 including the April A.G.M. All were held on Monday evenings at the Edmund Kell Hall, Bellevue Road. On 3rd January we invited members of F.O.S.O.C. (Friends of Southampton Old Cemetery) to join us for a talk on ‘Garden Butterflies’ by Brian Fletcher of Butterfly Conservation. As a result, there were thirty-two attendees, despite the fact that it was only two days after New Year’s Day and the weather resembled that of Siberia. We learnt a lot about what to expect in an urban or suburban garden and how to attract more butterflies and other nectar-feeding insects. Brian gave a similar talk at the Hawthorns Centre on 19th November. 7th February was a perfect cure for the winter blues and twenty-nine members came along to witness the ‘Most Flowery Places in the World’ by Bob Gibbons.

Beitr. 49/1 159-190 28.7.2017 Review of Gelechiidae (Lepidoptera) from Crete Ole KARSHOLT & Peter HUEMER A b s t r a c t : The paper gives the first comprehensive overview about Gelechiidae from the Island of Crete with detailed faunistic data. Altogether 115 species are reported, including 10 species indentifed to genus level only and likely including undescribed taxa, and 25 new records for Crete. DNA barcode sequences give evidence to cryptic diversity in some species. K e y w o r d s : Gelechiidae, Crete, new records, DNA barcoding. Introduction With an area of 8,261 km2 Crete (Kreta) is the largest island of Greece and the fifth largest Mediterranean island, stretching about 260 km from east to west and between 12 and 57 km from north to south. Together with a number of small surrounding islands with total area of ca. 65 km2 it constitutes the region of Crete. It is a mountainous island, reaching 2,456 m in the Lefka Ori Mts., and with 43 peaks above 2000 m. The moun- tains are overall karst/limestone (Figs 1-4). Crete is an extension of the Pindos Mts. of the Greek mainland. The distance to mainland Greece is about 100 km and to Turkey about 200 km.
