They were introduced into Latvia, Estonia, and Belarus. Lithuania has been colonized by immigrants from neighboring countries (Belarus and Latvia) and since 1960 the species has occupied the whole country. The data on genetic diversity of the raccoon dog are rather limited, and not all parts of the Baltic region have been covered by previous analyses. In order to compare the level of genetic diversity and describe phylogeographic patterns throughout the raccoon dog distribution in the Palearctic region, a mitochondrial DNA control region was used, and the current 22 sequences were combined with the sequences from earlier data (n = 32). The analysis of a 540-bp fragment of the mtDNA control region in raccoon dogs inhabiting Lithuania revealed 9 haplotypes with 19 variable positions. The phylogenetic relationships among the haplotypes demonstrated the presence of two haplogroups. The patterns of molecular genetic variation in raccoon dogs from Lithuania obtained in the present study indicated higher genetic diversity of these animals as compared with those from West Europe, but lower genetic polymorphism as compared with raccoon dogs introduced to the European part of Russia.

    P0399 Poster Session I Emerging infectious diseases BARTONELLA PATHOGENS IN SMALL MAMMALS (RODENTIA AND INSECTIVORA) AND THEIR FLEAS (SIPHONAPTERA) AND TICKS (IXODIDAE) IN LITHUANIA I. Lipatova1, A. Paulauskas1, J. Radzijevskaja1, V. Gedminas2 1Biology, Vytautas Magnus university, Kaunas, Lithuania ; 2Mammalia, Kaunas Tadas Ivanauskas Zoological Museum, Kaunas, Lithuania Objectives: The aim of this study was to detect and identify Bartonella pathogens in fleas and ticks collected from small mammals (rodentia and insectivora) in Lithuania. Methods: In our study were captured 318 rodents (including Apodemus flavicollis, Apodemus sylvaticus, Myodes glareolus, Microtus agrestis, Microtus arvalis, Microtus oeconomus and Micromys minutus) and 48 insectivores (Sorex minutus) between September 2011 and September 2012. One hundred eighty four fleas (including 4 genus: Hystrichopsylla, Ctenophthalmus, Palaeopsylla, Megabothris) and 111 ticks (Ixodes ricinus) were collected from small mammals. All samples were tested by polymerase chain reaction for the detection of Bartonella using BhCS.781p/BhCS.1137n primers. Differentiation of Bartonella species was doing by nested PCR of the ITS region and the gltA gene. A nested PCR of the ITS region was performed using WITS-F/WITS-R and Bh311-332F/Bh473- 452R primers. A nested PCR of the gltA gene was performed using gltA-F2/gltA-R2 and BhCS.781F/BhCS.1137R. PCR products were purified and subjected to sequence analysis. The obtained sequences were aligned with Bartonella pathogens gene sequences registered in GenBank database. Results: Bartonella pathogens were isolated from 27% small mammals, 30% fleas and 25% pools of ticks. A nested PCR and sequencing analysis of PCR products identified Bartonella pathogens to three species which can cause disease in human.

During the project, horticulture experts from Latvia and Lithuania inspected and selected the most valuable sites of horticultural heritage, provided advices on historical varieties, and management of the heritage garden. Cross- border project forced to exchange the experience in this field and to safe old cultivars for the future generations. Latvian and Lithuanian rural tourism associations are helping the garden owners to develop their contribution towards garden tourism, preparing historical garden tourism routes and carrying out marketing activities to promote historical gardens and varieties. Cross-border routes is fostering horticultural lovers to visit valuable objects and attract more foreign visitors. The methodological and informative material developed during the project is useful for the owners of the historical gardens, for the horticultural enthusiasts and shows the need of preservation of the historical objects. The improved infrastructure and developed historical gardens meet tourists at Rundale palace and Obelynė homestead. Horticulture institutes in both countries will enrich their collections for educational and research purposes.

Artykuł stanowi próbę odpowiedzi na pytania o czynniki, które zadecydowały o tym, że w końcu XIX – na początku XX w. część młodzieży pochodzenia szlacheckiego, wychowana w rodzinach polskojęzycznych, wybrała litewską tożsamość i włączyła się w litewski ruch narodowy. Autor omawia podstawowe bodźce, które miały wpływ na opowiedzenie się przez przedstawicieli szlachty za litewską tożsamością. Odpowiedzi na postawione pytania autor szuka dokonując analizy porównawczej życiorysów Vladasa Putvinskisa (1873–1929), Mykolasa Birˇziˇski (1882–1962) i Tadasa Ivanauskasa (1882–1970). Słowa kluczowe: litewskie odrodzenie narodowe, nacjonalizm litewski, pochodzenie szlachec- kie, tożsamość litewska Abstract. The article is an attempt to answer the question about the factors which contributed to the fact that at the end of 19th and the beginning of 20th centuries part of youth of noble de- scent raised in Polish-speaking families deliberately chose the Lithuanian identity and became involved in the Lithuanian national movement. The author discusses the basic stimuli that had an impact on favouring the Lithuanian identity by the representatives of nobility. The author seeks to answer these questions by making a comparative analysis of the biographies of Vladas Putvinskis (1873–1929), Mykolas Birˇziˇska (1882–1962) and Tadas Ivanauskas (1882–1970).

Ivanauskas Museum of Zoology, Laisvės al. 106, 44253 Kaunas, Lithuania. E-mails: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Introduction Beetle research in deadwood becomes increasingly important around the globe. Investigation of deadwood fauna reveals certain beetle species diversity in our country. New and rare beetle species were discovered when emergence type traps were placed on the tree trunks for the first time in Lithuania (Lekoveckaitė et al., 2017). Continuation of that kind of research allowed us to identify more rare and new beetle species for Lithuanian fauna, and all of the newly found ones were anticipated to be found in our country based on the records of the neighbouring countries (Tamutis et al., 2011). Material and Methods All beetles were collected by emergence traps modified according to Halme et al. (2013). Traps were placed on ash and aspen wind-fallen trees in Būda botanical – zoological and Biržai forest botanical reserves from the end of May (26 05 2018 in Biržai district and 29 05 2018 in Kaišiadorys district) untill the beginning of November (07 11 2018 in Biržai district and 10 11 2018 in Kaišiadorys district). The traps were checked and beetles collected every 15 days. Beetles were identified using the keys of Freude et al., (1964), Nunberg (1967), Vogt (1967), Dahlgren (1979), Lohse (1979), Mertlik (2008), Jałoszynski et al.

  • ONCE AGAIN on SOVIET STATEHOOD in LITHUANIA in 1918–1919 Česlovas Laurinavičius
    LITHUANIAN HISTORICAL STUDIES 13 2008 ISSN 1392-2343 PP. 179–190 ONCE AGAIN ON SOVIET STATEHOOD IN LITHUANIA IN 1918–1919 česlovas Laurinavičius ABSTRACT This article makes the claim that by initiating the formation of the so-called Soviet statehood in Lithuania and Belarus (Litbel) the gov- ernment of Soviet Russia did not intend ‘to set in motion the broad mass of Lithuania for the revolutionary struggle’ and tried to avoid social and national conflicts. However, the attitude of the Soviet government towards Lithuania underwent a change in the middle of 1919 when the advance of the Red Army to the West was halted. Historiographical Tendencies since the Sąjūdis Movement In Li- thuania much has been written and discussed on the issue of state hood since the time of Sąjūdis, the time of national rebirth in 1988–1989. The then discussion was characterized by a sort of rivalry between the two statehoods, national and Soviet, which had existed nearly side by side in 1918–1919. Doubtless, the national argument put forward during Sąjūdis has turned out to be more persuasive. It was generally agreed that it was national statehood that was real and representing the self-determination of the Lithuanian nation. Meanwhile Soviet sta- tehood was branded as advertising hoardings necessary for the spread of the world revolution into Germany or Poland. The most important argument for such identification was the fact that the concrete creators of Soviet statehood – Lithuanian Communists – refused categorically to recognize the right of nations for self-determination and did nor seek to separate Lithuania from Russia.
