We have a bumper Christmas edition for you this time with a good variety of articles from lots of different contributors. Of course these always represent our contributors’ personal views, with which you might agree or disagree. And if so, let’s hear from you! We start as always with Evan’s roundup of the quarter’s results comparing moth catches with weather conditions as they occurred throughout the period. This time he has chosen to compare Ireland and Scotland, the northern and western extremities of our study area. They are also our two largest “regions” (OK I know they (and Wales) don’t like to be called regions but I can’t think of a better alternative) and the ones with the largest numbers of vice counties with no GMS recorders. I’ll return to this theme in my Tailpiece. Evan has also focused on the Setaceous Hebrew Character, a species that seems to vary possibly more than any other from place to place.

  • Poland: May 2015
    Tropical Birding Trip Report Poland: May 2015 POLAND The Primeval Forests and Marshes of Eastern Europe May 22 – 31, 2015 Tour Leader: Scott Watson Report and Photos by Scott Watson Like a flying sapphire through the Polish marshes, the Bluethroat was a tour favorite. www.tropicalbirding.com +1-409-515-0514 [email protected] Page1 Tropical Birding Trip Report Poland: May 2015 Introduction Springtime in Eastern Europe is a magical place, with new foliage, wildflowers galore, breeding resident birds, and new arrivals from Africa. Poland in particular is beautiful this time of year, especially where we visited on this tour; the extensive Biebrza Marshes, and some of the last remaining old-growth forest left in Europe, the primeval forests of Bialowieski National Park, on the border with Belarus. Our tour this year was highly successfully, recording 168 species of birds along with 11 species of mammals. This includes all 10 possible Woodpecker species, many of which we found at their nest holes, using the best local knowledge possible. Local knowledge also got us on track with a nesting Boreal (Tengmalm’s) Owl, while a bit of effort yielded the tricky Eurasian Pygmy-Owl and the trickier Hazel Grouse. We also found 11 species of raptors on this tour, and we even timed it to the day that the technicolored European Bee-eaters arrived back to their breeding grounds. A magical evening was spent watching the display of the rare Great Snipe in the setting sun, with Common Snipe “winnowing” all around and the sounds of breeding Common Redshank and Black-tailed Godwits.

The products taken into discussion have been harvested from two geographical regions. There have been prepared two aqueous extracts in different dilutions. The antibacterial and antifungal activity has been assessed using the disc diffusion method. The results obtained demonstrate that the solutions tested do not have antifungal activity, but at the same time, our study proves that the Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli strains are sensitive to these solutions. In conclusion we can state that the two aqueous extracts from the Prunus spinosa L. species, obtained from different geographical areas, may be used for the future development of new pharmaceutical products.

  • We West Ham Park
    FRIENDS of WEST HAM PARK WE h WEST HAM PARK 2011 Bird Survey Report The Friends of West Ham Park have completed another successful year of bird surveys and the highlight results are listed below. As would be expected, little has changed in the list of birds that can be seen in the Park, but this is the first year since surveys begun in 2006 that a Goldcrest has not been seen, and it is likely that the Park no longer has a breeding population. Sightings of Goldfinches have increased and the resident population of MistleThrush continues to thrive. Although not nesting in the Park in 2011, we have had regular visits from a family of Sparrowhawk and a small flock of Long Tail Tits has continued to delight. A single sighting of Waxwing earlier in the year is the new addition to the list, and the flock was large enough for that bird to make it into the top 20. In order of numbers taken from survey reports the top twenty 2011 bird list is as follows:- • Wood Pigeon (17.5%) • Feral Pigeon (11.9%) • Blackbird (9.3%) • Crow (8.6%) • Starling (8.5%) • Magpie (8.1%) • Blue Tit (5.4%) • Great Tit (4.7%) • Common Gull (4.2%) • Black Headed Gull (3.3%) • Robin (2.7%) • House Sparrow (2.3%) • Mistle Thrush (2.2%) • Pied Wagtail (1.8%) • Long Tail Tit (1.7%) • Waxwing (1.6%) • Redwing (1.2%) • Jay (1%) • Chaffinch (0.9%) • Goldfinch (0.6%) This list accounts for around 97% of all birds seen, but it is important to note that Wren, Song Thrush, Green Woodpecker, Great Spotted Woodpecker and at least a dozen other types of bird are also seen.

  • Prunus Spinosa
    Prunus spinosa Prunus spinosa in Europe: distribution, habitat, usage and threats I. Popescu, G. Caudullo The blackthorn (Prunus spinosa L.) is a spiny, deciduous shrub which produces small, purple, edible plums. This species occurs mostly from south-central Europe up to southern Scandinavia, and eastwards to Asia Minor, growing in forest margins and open woodlands as part of Mediterranean thermophilous plant communities. It is cultivated as an ornamental plant and for fruit production, used to make jams, wine, vinegar and distillates. The blackthorn has no important threats, but it can be a natural host and potential reservoir of diseases affecting production of economically important fruits, such as apricots, plums, peaches and apples. The blackthorn, or sloe, (Prunus spinosa L.) is a spiny, deciduous shrub, growing 1-5 m tall. It forms a dense canopy with Frequency 1-4 intricate branches and numerous suckers . Secondary twigs < 25% 25% - 50% often transformed into a spine, initially velvety soft, reddish- 50% - 75% brown. The buds are globular oval, reddish-brown, more or less > 75% Chorology hairy. The bark is dark grey to blackish, slightly grooved. The Native leaves are alternate, 2-5 × 1-2 cm long, obovate to oblanceolate, or elliptical, with margins finely toothed, dull green in colour and hairless above, usually hairy on the veins underneath1, 3. The petioles are 0.2-1 cm long, often hairy. The stipules are elongate, Purple globose drupes covered with a frostlike bloom. glandular, toothed, and usually longer than petioles3. The flowers (Copyright Phil Sellens, www.flickr.com: CC-BY) are white, 1-1.7 cm wide, usually solitary, appearing before leaves, numerous, on about 0.5 cm long pedicels1-3.

  • Abstract Alliaria Petiolata (Garlic
    ABSTRACT ALLIARIA PETIOLATA (GARLIC MUSTARD) RESPONSE TO HERBICIDE AND JUNE PRECIPITATION, AND SUBSEQUENT EFFECTS ON THE FOREST FLOOR COMMUNITY by Wendy Wenger Hochstedler The impact of invasive plant species on native plants is largely assumed to be negative, but supporting evidence is sparse. We examined the long-term effects of herbicide on Alliaria petiolata and the subsequent effects on the plant community in southwestern Ohio. November herbicide application effectively killed A. petiolata, but did not reduce recruitment; spring densities of A. petiolata rosettes were not lower in sprayed plots. Only modest differences were noted in forest floor vegetation, suggesting A. petiolata rosettes competed with other plant species. We tested the hypothesis that higher June precipitation promotes rosette growth and survival with a rain shelter experiment. The three different water treatments affected soil moisture, but not A. petiolata growth or survival. Dry treatments may not have replicated drought years based on water availability measurements. June precipitation is probably not a reliable predictor of A. petiolata rosette survival in years with above average precipitation.

We use RNAseq analysis to identify candidate genes underlying this polymorphism. We sequenced cDNA from the body and the mantle (the shell-producing tissue) of four individuals of two phenotypes and produced a de novo transcriptome of 147,397 contigs. Differential expression analysis identified a set of 1,961 transcripts that were upregulated in mantle tissue. Sequence variant analysis resulted in a set of 2,592 transcripts with single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that differed consistently between the phenotypes. Combining these results yielded a set of 197 candidate transcripts, of which 38 were annotated.

  • Appendix A: Common and Scientific Names for Fish and Wildlife Species Found in Idaho
    APPENDIX A: COMMON AND SCIENTIFIC NAMES FOR FISH AND WILDLIFE SPECIES FOUND IN IDAHO. How to Read the Lists. Within these lists, species are listed phylogenetically by class. In cases where phylogeny is incompletely understood, taxonomic units are arranged alphabetically. Listed below are definitions for interpreting NatureServe conservation status ranks (GRanks and SRanks). These ranks reflect an assessment of the condition of the species rangewide (GRank) and statewide (SRank). Rangewide ranks are assigned by NatureServe and statewide ranks are assigned by the Idaho Conservation Data Center. GX or SX Presumed extinct or extirpated: not located despite intensive searches and virtually no likelihood of rediscovery. GH or SH Possibly extinct or extirpated (historical): historically occurred, but may be rediscovered. Its presence may not have been verified in the past 20–40 years. A species could become SH without such a 20–40 year delay if the only known occurrences in the state were destroyed or if it had been extensively and unsuccessfully looked for. The SH rank is reserved for species for which some effort has been made to relocate occurrences, rather than simply using this status for all elements not known from verified extant occurrences. G1 or S1 Critically imperiled: at high risk because of extreme rarity (often 5 or fewer occurrences), rapidly declining numbers, or other factors that make it particularly vulnerable to rangewide extinction or extirpation. G2 or S2 Imperiled: at risk because of restricted range, few populations (often 20 or fewer), rapidly declining numbers, or other factors that make it vulnerable to rangewide extinction or extirpation. G3 or S3 Vulnerable: at moderate risk because of restricted range, relatively few populations (often 80 or fewer), recent and widespread declines, or other factors that make it vulnerable to rangewide extinction or extirpation.
