Hibernacula of Barbastella Barbastellus in Ukraine: Distribution and Some Ecological Aspects
Vespertilio 16: 55–68, 2012 ISSN 1213-6123 Hibernacula of Barbastella barbastellus in Ukraine: distribution and some ecological aspects Andriy-Taras BASHTA Institute of Ecology of the Carpathians, Kozelnytska 4, Lviv 79026, Ukraine; atbashta@gmail. Com Abstract. The paper presents a study regarding the winter aggregations of the barbastelle bat (Barbastella barbastellus) in western Ukraine, based on data collected in natural underground spaces and artificial structures (abandoned mines, ancient monuments, military fortifications, etc.). Some parameters including the size and dynamics of winter aggregations, as well as microclimate conditions of hibernacula were investigated. The most numerous barbastelle hibernaculum has been found in the Tarakaniv fortress (Rivne region); the largest aggregation of the species consisted of ca. 950 individuals. The numbers of barbastelles in Ukraine seem stable or even increasing. In Central Europe the species is not threatened as seriously as it is in Western Europe. Distribution, hibernation, winter aggregations, conservation Introduction The barbastelle bat, Barbastella barbastellus (Schreber, 1774), is a Palearctic bat species. Its range stretches from the northern Morocco to Iran and from southern Scandinavia and Latvia to Greece (Wołoszyn & Bashta 2009). In Ukraine, the barbastelle is found from the western borders to the Dnieper river. The majority of records come from the western part of Ukraine and the Crimean Mts. (Kovalyova & Taraborkin 2001, Bashta & Potish 2007, Bashta 2009). The last assessment -

In connection with the fact that it was extremely important to support the active public participation in the process of decision making relative to the Olympic Games 2014 location, and since the Environmental Watch on North Caucasus did not possess any other means for realization of these activities, the accomplishment of the project lasted longer than it was expected – more than one year. III. NARRATIVE QUESTIONS 1. What was the initial objective of this project? The initial objective of this project was the prevention of Olympic Games 2014 realization on the especially protected areas of Western Caucasus and within boundaries of World Heritage Site and also averting of negative and irreplaceable effect to its biodiversity. -
RUSSIAN FEDERATION This Large Site on the Western End of the Greater Caucasus Mountains Is in One of the Few Great Mountain Ranges of Europe Almost Undisturbed by Man
WESTERN CAUCASUS RUSSIAN FEDERATION This large site on the western end of the Greater Caucasus Mountains is in one of the few great mountain ranges of Europe almost undisturbed by man. Its extensive mountain forests, from subtropical to alpine, are unique in Europe and its high pastures have been grazed only by wild animals. The site is on the edge of the Colchian centre of plant diversity barely 30 kilometres from the Black Sea. Stretching between lowlands and alpine mountains, it includes four-fifths of the ecosystems of the Caucasus and includes many endemic and relict species such as the reintroduced European bison. Threats to the site: Construction of more than 250 facilities for the 2014 Winter Olympics is heavily impinging on the site and region. COUNTRY Russian Federation NAME Western Caucasus NATURAL WORLD HERITAGE SERIAL SITE 1999: Inscribed on the World Heritage List under Natural Criteria ix and x. STATEMENT OF OUTSTANDING UNIVERSAL VALUE [pending] The UNESCO World Heritage Committee issued the following statement at the time of inscription: Justification for Inscription The Western Caucasus has a remarkable diversity of geology, ecosystems and species. It is of global significance as a centre of plant diversity. Along with the Virgin Komi World Heritage site, it is the only large mountain area in Europe that has not experienced significant human impact, containing extensive tracts of undisturbed mountain forests unique on the European scale.
