The full list of participants is attached as Annex I of this report. Agenda item 1: Welcoming address 8. Mr Javier Pantoja Trigueros, representing Mr Miguel Aymerich Huyghes, Chairperson of the Bureau, welcomed participants and highlighted the active, efficient, scientific work that had been carried out under the leadership of ACCOBAMS in the three years that had ensued since the previous Meeting of the Parties. Its work was a standard that others could usefully emulate and was becoming ever more necessary in view of increasing human pressure on the Agreement Area. 3 9. Mr Jadran Antolović, State Secretary at the Ministry of Culture, Croatia, welcomed participants to Dubrovnik, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. He underlined the necessity of cooperation among all the countries of the region, and said that his country had been one of the first signatories to ACCOBAMS (Annex XII). 10. Ms Heidrun Frisch, from the Secretariat of CMS and ASCOBANS, said that Mr Robert Hepworth, the Executive Secretary of CMS, was unable to attend the Meeting. He had, however, recorded an address, which was shown to the participants (Annex XII). He reminded participants that the Mediterranean was a ‘hot spot’ for activities related to the Year of the Dolphin, which had been extended into 2008. 11. Ms Marie-Christine Grillo-Van Klaveren, Executive Secretary of ACCOBAMS, also welcomed participants to the Third Meeting of the Parties. She looked forward to fruitful discussions in the conducive atmosphere of Dubrovnik and congratulated the Croatian Government on its active role at the international level, particularly with regard to the conservation of Mediterranean terrestrial and marine biodiversity. Agenda item 2: Granting the right to vote 12. The representative of the Chairperson of the Bureau recalled that countries that ratified the Agreement and deposited the relevant instruments with the Depositary did not become Parties to the Agreement until a specified period had elapsed. In order that as many Parties as possible could take part in decision-making, he invited the participants to consider draft Resolution 3.1 contained in document ACCOBAMS-MOP3/2007/Doc22, in which Algeria would be granted the status of fully participating Party with the right to vote. 13. Following a comment by one delegation about the conformity of the draft Resolution with Article XIV of the Agreement, the Executive Secretary explained that a similar waiver had been granted to Portugal at the Second Meeting of the Parties. Although Algeria had deposited its instrument, it would become a full Party only on the first day of the third month subsequent to that deposition. The dispensation would be valid only for the duration of the Meeting. 14. The Resolution 3.1 was adopted (Annex X). 15. The Executive Secretary welcomed the participation of Algeria, which already had a Focal Point and had undertaken many activities related to the work of ACCOBAMS. 16. The representative of Algeria described some of the activities undertaken in his country since 1962 for the preservation and protection of nature. Algeria considered the work of ACCOBAMS to be a just and noble cause, to which it would give its fullest support. Agenda item 3: Election of the Bureau 17. The representative of the Chairperson of the Bureau informed the Meeting that, following consultations among the heads of delegations prior to the Meeting, it was proposed that the new Bureau be composed of the representatives of Croatia, Italy, Morocco and Ukraine. 4 18. The Meeting approved the composition of the Bureau as follows: Chairperson: Ms Ana Štrbenac (Croatia) Vice-Chairperson: Mr Oliviero Montanaro (Italy) Vice-Chairperson: Mr Volodymyr Domashlinets (Ukraine) Vice-Chairperson Rapporteur: Ms Amina Moumni (Morocco) 19. Ms Ana Štrbenac, the new Chairperson of the Bureau, thanked the Meeting for having elected her and looked forward to fruitful discussions. 20. The Executive Secretary congratulated the members of the previous Bureau for their efficient work during the past three years. Agenda item 4: Adoption of the agenda 21. The Chairperson invited comments on the provisional agenda proposed by the Secretariat in document ACCOBAMS-MOP3/2007/Doc01-Rev1 and annotated in document ACCOBAMS-MOP3/2007/Doc02-Rev3. 22. The delegation of France expressed a general reserve concerning document ACCOBAMS-MOP3/2007/Doc31. Following a debate on the feasibility of the actions provided for in draft Resolution 3.10 with respect to ‘anthropogenic noise’, on its conformity with the relevant articles of ACCOBAMS and the Law of the Sea Convention and on the appropriateness of making reference to the European Habitat Directive, the Meeting decided to set up a working group, coordinated by France and Spain, to review the draft Resolution and make suggestions on the issue. 23. The representative of Spain said that his delegation had provided an information document on new mass strandings of dolphins in his country. 24. The Executive Secretary informed the Meeting that a new document would be submitted under agenda item 11(d), containing a request from a nongovernmental organization in the Syrian Arab Republic to become an ACCOBAMS Partner. 25. On that understanding, the Meeting adopted the agenda, which is contained in Annex II to this report, and the proposed timetable contained in document ACCOBAMS- MOP3/2007/Doc04-Rev2. Agenda item 5: Admission of observers 26. The Chairperson presented the requests for admission as observers to the Third Meeting of the Parties, as listed in document ACCOBAMS-MOP3/2007/Doc06-Rev2. 27. The Meeting approved the participation of the observers listed in the document. 5 Agenda item 6: Establishment of the Credentials Committee 28. In accordance with the provisions of Article 4 of the Rules of Procedure of the Meetings of the Parties, a Credentials Committee was established, composed of the representatives of France, Bulgaria, Cyprus and the Syrian Arab Republic. The Chairperson invited the Committee to meet and to submit its conclusions at a later stage of the Meeting. Agenda item 7: Opening statements 29. The Chairperson invited the delegations of the new Parties to ACCOBAMS, as well as the riparian States, to make statements (Annexe XII). 30. The representative of Slovenia said that it was the first Meeting of the Parties his country had attended. All cetaceans had been fully protected at national level in Slovenia since 1993, and in the past 12 months his country had significantly increased its involvement in that area at international level. Slovenia had ratified the International Convention on the Regulation of Whaling and had joined the group of like-minded countries that did not support commercial whaling. It had decided to accede to ACCOBAMS because of its concern for the uncertain future of cetaceans because of global warming, habitat loss, fisheries, disturbance and other human activities.

  • 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

The geometrid moth Scopula orientalis (Alphéraky, 1876) has an apparently disjunct distribution in Europe, with local populations in the Balkans (Macedonia, Bulgaria and Albania where recently discovered), as well as in Ukraine and southern European Russia. In this study, based on morphological and mitochondrial DNA (cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 – COI) data, we report the presence of S. orientalis in south-eastern Romania (Dobrogea), at the northernmost limit of the Balkans. The flight time (September) of the recorded specimen, is the latest seasonal record for the Balkans, supporting the presence of at least a partial second generation.

On behalf of the Republican Committee for Environmental Protection of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea, Mr. Yuriy Yermakov, welcomed participants to the Crimean peninsula and highlighted both the international and regional environmental importance of the Crimean steppe habitat. The Great Bustard was stressed as a vital component of this ecosystem and thus it was excellent to conduct the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) meeting in Feodosia in the eastern part of the peninsula, which permitted participants to view the species in the wild. Mr. Yermakov drew attention to various measures relevant to the conservation of the Great Bustard, such as the fact that approximately 5% of the Autonomous Republic were designated protected areas. Best wishes for a successful meeting were expressed. 3. The CMS representative, Dr. Aline Kühl, welcomed participants and provided an opening statement from the Executive Secretary of the Convention, Mr. Robert Hepworth. The Great Bustard MoU was highlighted as one of the first soft law instruments for migratory species under CMS and as illustrated by the meeting documents had contributed to considerable conservation action since entry into force in 2001.

T. A. Polyakova A. O. Kovalevsky Institute of Biology of the Southern Seas of RAS, Sevastopol, Russian Federation E-mail: [email protected] Received by the Editor 08.07.2019; after revision 04.10.2019; accepted for publication 27.03.2020; published online 31.03.2020. The first data on marine fish parasites in Karadag nature reserve water area were published at the be- ginning of the 20ᵗʰ century. By the beginning of the 21ˢᵗ century, information on the fauna of cestodes in this area of the Black Sea included data on 19 species recorded in 24 fish species. However, taxon- omy of this class of helminths has changed significantly over the last decade, and regional fauna needs to be revised. The aim of this work is to revise the species composition of fish cestodes in the water area of the Karadag nature reserve and adjacent areas on the basis of new data obtained and in accordance with current systematics of Cestoda. The material for this study was the collections of cestodes gathered by the staff of IBSS RAS Environmental Parasitology Department in the area of the Karadag nature re- serve in different years, as well as our own collections of 1754 specimens of rays and teleosts of 53 species (2005–2018).

A list of 57 species of rare and red-listed epiphytic lichen-forming and lichenicolous fungi asso- ciated to beech forests of Crimean Mountains (Ukraine) is presented. It includes nine species new for Ukraine: Hawksworthiana peltigericola, Heterodermia japonica, Lecania prasinoides, Parmelia ernstiae, Phacographa zwackhii, Plectocarpon lichenum, Stigmidium congestum, Usnea diplotypus and Verrucaria corticola. Other 20 species are new to Crimea. The notes about rarity of the species in Ukraine or taxonomic differences are given. The localities of 21 species were confirmed for Crimean Mts by our study. Key words: Biodiveristy, Cryptogams, red-list. Introduction The Crimean Natural Reserve is one of the biodiversity hot-spots of the Crimean Mountains in Ukraine. The area of this Reserve comprises 34500 ha, where nearly 26% is occupied by the largest old-growth beech forest of the Crimean peninsula (Yena & al. 2004). Many red-listed, indicator species of woodland key habitats or otherwise rare epi- phytic lichens are associated with such forests (Coppins & Coppins 2002).
