Te study is based on roughly 1,400 specimens from Polish and some European herbaria. Out of the 18 species of the genus Opegrapha s. l. recorded from Poland, seven species belong to the genus Opegrapha Ach., four species now belong to the genus Alyxoria Ach. ex Gray, two species each are found in the genera Arthonia Ach. and Zwackhia Körb, and one species belongs to each of the genera Gyrographa Ertz & Tehler, Phacographa Hafellner, and Pseudoschismatomma Ertz & Tehler. One of the species, Zwackhia sorediifera, has been reported from Poland for the frst time. Among the 18 species of the genus Opegrapha s. l., 10 are epiphytic, fve epilithic, and two lichenicolous. Te frst modern identifcation key for the species of Opegrapha s. l. in Poland is presented. Numerous new regional records are provided that complement our knowledge of the geographic distribution of some poorly known taxa, such as Alyxoria culmigena, A. mougeotii, A. ochrocheila, Arthonia calcarea, Opegrapha dolomitica, O. geographicola, O. lithyrga, and Phacographa glaucomaria. All species are characterized and discussed, and their diagnostic characters illustrated. Geographic ranges of each species in Poland are presented on maps based on revised herbarium materials.

Competing interests No competing interests have been declared. Wieczorek / The lichen genus Opegrapha s. l. in Poland 1. Introduction Opegrapha s. l. is a species-rich genus of crustose lichens. Individuals are typically found on the bark of various tree species or on rocks, decaying wood, and thalli of other lichens. Tey are distributed in all climatic zones across the planet. Although it is difcult to assess the number of species of this genus, the Index Fungorum contains about 600 species in the genus, including all synonyms. For most of the last century, a taxonomic concept was used for this genus in Europe, which followed Redinger’s [1] monograph. However, individual species concepts in that monograph did not deviate substantially from those presented previously by Acharius [2,3], Stizenberger [4], or Nylander [5]. Te widespread use of molecular methods resulted in a major change for the systematics of this group. For example, Ertz et al. [6] drew attention to its polyphyly. Moreover, molecular studies resulted in the introduction of a new family, the Lecanogra- phaceae, which included the genera Alyxoria, Lecanographa, and Zwackhia [7,8]. In 2015, several new genera, including Gyrographa and Pseudoschismatomma, were described in an additional study by Ertz et

We reviewed also all published results of small-mammal trapping in such habitats. Mammals were captured in pitfalls, snap traps and live traps on 12 bogs of the Pomerania region, 4 bogs of the Orawa-Nowy Targ Basin (Kotlina Orawsko-Nowotarska), 3 bogs in the Świętokrzyskie Mts, and 6 bogs in Wielkopolska and the Lubusz Land. Additionally, we included materials collected from Barber traps (pitfalls) used during studies of epigeic invertebrates on 4 bogs. In total, 598 individuals of 12 species were collected. The number of pitfall captures per 100 trap- nights was very low (7.0–7.8), suggesting low population density.

    / !"# 27 THE TRANSFORMATION OF THE NATURAL ENVIRONMENT OF THE POLISH AND UKRAINIAN BIESZCZADY MOUNTAINS DUE TO TOURISM AND OTHER FORMS OF HUMAN PRESSURE Agnieszka Œwigost Institute of Urban Development, Krakow, Poland Abstract The area of Bieszczady Mountains is the cross-border zone characterized by a great diversity in both policies and a level of economic development between the Polish and Ukrainian part of the region. Therefore, it exhibits a significant variation in the degree, form and character of anthropopres- sure. The main aim of the study is to compare the intensity of transformation of Polish and Ukrainian parts of Bieszczady Mountains and indicate the anthropogenic conditions existing in both countries. Four villages of Bieszczady were analysed – Solina and Wetlina in Poland and Sianki and Volosjanka in Ukraine. The study, conducted using the point scoring evaluation method, showed large variations in the degree of anthropopressure in different localities. The area that has the lowest level of human impact is Po³onina Wetliñska while the largest one occurs in Solina. Wetlina, Sianki and Volosjanka have a similar level of transformation. Research areas located in the Polish part of Bieszczady are exposed to environmental changes primarily related to the development of tourism. In Ukraine, the pressure is observable due to unregulated water and sewage systems, a large accumulation of possessions with a traditional heating and highly developed railway network. Keywords: anthropopressure; tourism; Polish Bieszczady Mountains; Ukrainian Bieszczady Mountains Introduction rently, research in the field of anthropopressure includes also Contemporary transformations of the natural environment the less visible transformation of the environment caused for are the consequences of not only natural alterations but also instance by tourism development.

  • Epidemiological Characterization of Mycobacterium Caprae Strains
    Orłowska et al. BMC Veterinary Research (2020) 16:362 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12917-020-02581-3 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Epidemiological characterization of Mycobacterium caprae strains isolated from wildlife in the Bieszczady Mountains, on the border of Southeast Poland Blanka Orłowska1*, Monika Krajewska-Wędzina2, Ewa Augustynowicz-Kopeć3, Monika Kozińska3, Sylwia Brzezińska3, Anna Zabost3, Anna Didkowska1, Mirosław Welz4, Stanisław Kaczor5, Piotr Żmuda6 and Krzysztof Anusz1 Abstract Background: The majority of animal tuberculosis (TB) cases reported in wildlife in Poland over the past 20 years have concerned the European bison inhabiting the Bieszczady Mountains in Southeast Poland: an area running along the border of Southeast Poland. As no TB cases have been reported in domestic animals in this region since 2005, any occurrence of TB in the free-living animals inhabiting this area might pose a real threat to local livestock and result in the loss of disease-free status. The aim of the study was to describe the occurrence of tuberculosis in the wildlife of the Bieszczady Mountains and determine the microbiological and molecular characteristics of any cultured strains. Lymph node samples were collected for analysis from 274 free-living animals, including European bison, red foxes, badgers, red deer, wild boar and roe deer between 2011 and 2017. Löwenstein–Jensen and Stonebrink media were used for culture. Molecular identification of strains was performed based on hsp65 sequence analysis, the GenoType®MTBC (Hain Lifescience, Germany) test, spoligotyping and MIRU-VNTR analysis. Results: Mycobacterium caprae was isolated from the lymph nodes of 21 out of 55 wild boar (38.2%; CI 95%: 26.5%, 51.4%) and one roe deer.
