The combination of glacial history, climate and relief has allowed the development of the richest and most unusual temperate forests in the world. Compared to other temperate ecosystems, the level of endemic plants and invertebrates present in the region is extraordinarily high which has resulted in unusual assemblages of plants and animals. For example, subtropical species such as tiger and Himalayan bear share the same habitat with species typical of northern taiga such as brown bear and reindeer. The site is also important for the survival of endangered species such as the scaly-sided (Chinese) merganser, Blakiston's fish-owl and the Amur tiger. This serial nomination consists of two protected areas in the Sikhote- Alin mountain range in the extreme southeast of the Russian Federation: NAME LOCATION AREA Sikhote-Alin Nature Preserve Terney District 401,428 ha Goralij Zoological Preserve Coastal zone on the Sea of Japan, N of Terney 4,749 ha The Committee encouraged the State Party to improve management of the Bikin River protected areas (Bikin Territory of Traditional Nature Use and Verkhnebikinski zakaznik) before nominating it as an extension.

The entire chloroplast (cp) genome of asparagus was sequenced with Hiseq4000 platform. The complete cp genome maps a circular molecule of 156,699bp built with a quadripartite organization: two inverted repeats (IRs) of 26,531bp, separated by a large single copy (LSC) sequence of 84,999bp and a small single copy (SSC) sequence of 18,638bp. A total of 112 genes comprising of 78 protein-coding genes, 30 tRNAs and 4 rRNAs were successfully annotated, 17 of which included introns. The identity, number and GC content of asparagus cp genes were similar to those of other asparagus species genomes. Analysis revealed 81 simple sequence repeat (SSR) loci, most composed of A or T, contributing to a bias in base composition. A maximum likelihood phylogenomic evolution analysis showed that asparagus was closely related to Polygonatum cyrtonema that belonged to the genus Asparagales.

    How to use the Atlas The Atlas has two map sections The Main Section shows the location of Russia’s intact forest landscapes. The Thematic Section shows their tree species composition in two different ways. The legend is placed at the beginning of each set of maps. If you are looking for an area near a town or village Go to the Index on page 153 and find the alphabetical list of settlements by English name. The Cyrillic name is also given along with the map page number and coordinates (latitude and longitude) where it can be found. Capitals of regions and districts (raiony) are listed along with many other settlements, but only in the vicinity of intact forest landscapes. The reader should not expect to see a city like Moscow listed. Villages that are insufficiently known or very small are not listed and appear on the map only as nameless dots. If you are looking for an administrative region Go to the Index on page 185 and find the list of administrative regions. The numbers refer to the map on the inside back cover. Having found the region on this map, the reader will know which index map to use to search further. If you are looking for the big picture Go to the overview map on page 35. This map shows all of Russia’s Intact Forest Landscapes, along with the borders and Roman numerals of the five index maps. If you are looking for a certain part of Russia Find the appropriate index map. These show the borders of the detailed maps for different parts of the country.

  • The Baikal-Amur Mainline Memories and Emotions of a Socialist Construction Project
    The Baikal-Amur Mainline Memories and Emotions of a Socialist Construction Project OLGA POVOROZNYUK Abstract: The Baikal-Amur Mainline (BAM), a railroad in East Siberia and the Russian Far East, became the last large Soviet industrial proj- ect. Its construction in the 1970s and 1980s attracted migrants from across the USSR, who formed the bamovtsy, or group of BAM build- ers. They share a history of working and living along the BAM and constitute the majority population in the region. The article argues that emotionally charged social memory of the BAM construction plays the central role in reproducing and reinforcing the bamovtsy identity in the post-Soviet period. Drawing on in-depth interviews and focus groups, the article examines the dynamics of both indi- vidual and collective remembering of the socialist BAM. It forms a vibrant discursive and emotional field, in which memories and iden- tities are reconstructed, relived, and contested. Commemorative cer- emonies such as the fortieth anniversary of the BAM serve as forums of public remembering and arenas for the politics of emotions. Keywords: Baikal-Amur Mainline, emotions, identity, politics, post-socialism, social memory he Baikal-Amur Mainline (BAM) is the longest northernmost rail- road crossing the regions of East Siberia and the Russian Far East Tto link the Eurasian countries with East Asia. The history of the BAM starts with early construction projects dating back to the nineteenth century and continues with the first tracks laid under the Stalinist regime in the 1950s. However, the majority of the mainline was built between 1974 and 1984, under the authority of the Soviet industrial pro- gram focused on “mastering the North” (Slavin 1982).

  • ORCHIDS AS INVASIVE PLANTS Wojciech Adamowski Extinction Or
    Proceedings 5th International Conference on the Ecology of Invasive Alien Plants 13-16 October 1999 - La Maddalena - Sardinia - Italy ORCHIDS AS INVASIVE PLANTS Wojciech Adamowski Bialowieza Geobotanical Station, Warsaw University Ul. Sportowa 19 17-230 Bialowieza Poland Tel +48 85 68 12 548, Fax +48 85 68 12 479 [email protected] Extinction or endangerment of many orchid species is well known fact. However, also in this group one can find invasive species. The paper include list of more than twenty taxons, spreading in new countries and even invading natural plant communities. European Epipactis helleborine occurs in a variety of anthropogenic habitats and broad- leaved forests in Eastern part of Northern America. In western Europe, on pine and spruce plantations, boreal orchids Goodyera repens and Listera cordata are spreading. In tropical zone most successful invaders are African species: Oeceoclades maculata in Southern and Central America and Monadenia bracteata in Western and Southern Australia. Some orchids, commonly cultivated, escape in two geographical regions, e.g. Epidendrum o'brienianum in Eastern Australia and Hawaii Islands. Most rich in naturalised orchids are Central America and Hawaii Islands. Common characters of many invading orchids are: - quick development (Oeceoclades maculata 1 year from seed to flower in favourable conditions!) - autogamy - apomixis - wide ecological amplitudes - broad natural distribution In most cases, intentional human activity (cultivation) was very important factor for further successful spreading. Unintentional activity (transformation of habitats, accidental introductions) seems to be of similar importance. This phenomenon can be more common, particularly in tropical countries, where orchid flora is rich, and conditions for cultivation more favourable.

The Prospect of Disintegration Is Low Conference Highlights On 9-10 December 1998 the National Intelligence Council and the State Department Bureau of Intelligence and Research jointly sponsored a conference that examined the current state of federalism in Russia. The conference consisted of 22 presentations from experts outside the government, interspersed with general discussion between the experts and government attendees. The agenda focused separately on global experiences with federalism, current institutional arrangements between the center and the regions, current political interactions between the center and the regions, and Russian regional views on federalism. The final session featured a competitive analysis of the case for and against disintegration. John Battilega of the Science Applications International Corporation served as rapporteur. Conference participants did not endeavor to produce a coordinated summary of findings. Nevertheless, most participants seemed in agreement on some major issues.

Sykora, Optimizing grassland management for flower-visiting insects in roadside verges, Biological Conservation, Volume 142, Issue 10, October 2009, Pages 2097-2103, ISSN 0006-3207, DOI: 10.1016/j.biocon.2009.04.009. (http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/B6V5X-4WBB71H- 1/2/3622bace9a5f6c088d770bcaa28dcc2f) Abstract: The decline of flower-visiting insects is a threat to ecological processes and to the services these insects provide. Roadside verges in the Netherlands span approximately 80,000 km and are often covered with semi-natural grasslands. As such, they also provide a suitable habitat for many insects, but this has received little attention so far. We investigated the effects of different management treatments on flower-visiting insects. We studied flower visitation in a 3 years old experimental set-up with five mowing treatments each replicated five times. Management types were: no management and mowing once or twice per year with and without the removal of hay, representing common forms of management and neglect. During an entire growing season, both flowers (number of species and inflorescences) as well as insects (total abundance and actual flower visits) were investigated. Mowing twice per year with removal of hay showed highest values for all measured variables and this effect persisted throughout the growing season. The early summer cut proved to be very important for insect feeding opportunities, due to the re-flowering of plants later in the growing season. Flower abundance showed high correlations with both plant species richness and the number of insect visits.
