  • Alien and Invasive Species of Harmful Insects in Bosnia and Herzegovina
    Alien and invasive species of harmful insects in Bosnia and Herzegovina Mirza Dautbašić1,*, Osman Mujezinović1 1 Faculty of Forestry University in Sarajevo, Chair of Forest Protection, Urban Greenery and Wildlife and Hunting. Zagrebačka 20, 71000 Sarajevo * Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract: An alien species – animal, plant or micro-organism – is one that has been introduced as a result of human activity to an area it could not have reached on its own. In cases where the foreign species expands in its new habitat, causing environmental and economic damage, then it is classified as invasive. The maturity of foreign species in the new area may also be influenced by climate changes. The detrimental effect of alien species is reflected in the reduction of biodiversity as well as plant vitality. A large number of alien species of insects are not harmful to plants in new habitats, but there are also those that cause catastrophic consequences to a significant extent. The aim of this paper is to present an overview of newly discovered species of insects in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The research area, for this work included forest and urban ecosystems in the territory of Bosnia and Herzegovina. For the purposes of this paper, an overview of the species found is provided: /HSWRJORVVXVRFFLGHQWDOLV Heidemann; (Hemiptera: Coreidae) - The western conifer seed bug, found at two sites in Central Bosnia, in 2013 and 2015; $UJHEHUEHULGLVSchrank; (Hymenoptera: Argidae) - The berberis sawfly, recorded in one locality (Central Bosnia), in 2015;

  • Prioritising the Management of Invasive Non-Native Species
    PRIORITISING THE MANAGEMENT OF INVASIVE NON-NATIVE SPECIES Olaf Booy Thesis submitted to the School of Natural and Environmental Sciences in fulfilment for the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Newcastle University October 2019 Abstract Invasive non-native species (INNS) are a global threat to economies and biodiversity. With large numbers of species and limited resources, their management must be carefully prioritised; yet agreed methods to support prioritisation are lacking. Here, methods to support prioritisation based on species impacts, pathways of introduction and management feasibility were developed and tested. Results provide, for the first time, a comprehensive list of INNS in Great Britain (GB) based on the severity of their biodiversity impacts. This revealed that established vertebrates, aquatic species and non-European species caused greater impacts than other groups. These high impact groups increased as a proportion of all non-native species over time; yet overall the proportion of INNS in GB decreased. This was likely the result of lag in the detection of impact, suggesting that GB is suffering from invasion debt. Testing methods for ranking the importance of introduction pathways showed that methods incorporating impact, uncertainty and temporal trend performed better than methods based on counts of all species. Eradicating new and emerging species is one of the most effective management responses; however, practical methods to prioritise species based both on their risk and the feasibility of their eradication are lacking. A novel risk management method was developed and applied in GB and the EU to identify not only priority species for eradication and contingency planning, but also prevention and long term management.

  • Monitoring of Four Invasive Non-Native Garden Pests
    Monitoring of four invasive non-native garden pests Andrew Salisbury, Ian Waghorn and Andrew Halstead The Entomology section of the Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) is collating records of four invasive non-native garden pest insects following their establishment in the UK. Data collection has previously relied on data gathered from RHS members’ enquiries, however in May 2008 internet- based monitoring has been launched. Lily beetle – Lilioceris lilii Rosemary beetle – Chrysolina americana First reported Firs t rec orded 1994-1999 1939-1989 2000-2004 1990-1999 2005- 2000+ Adult lily beetle (Photo R.

(January 2008). Produced using DMAP© Lily beetle is a defoliating pest of lilies (Lilium) and fritillaries (Fritillaria) that Rosemary beetle was first reported outdoors in the UK at RHS Wisley Garden became established in Surrey in the late 1930s. Until the late 1980s the beetle in 1994, however it was not found there again until 2000. During that time it remained confined to south east England. However during the past two became established in London, and is now a common pest in gardens in decades the beetle has spread rapidly and it is now found throughout England, south east England, with scattered reports from the rest of Britain. Both the is widespread in Wales and is spreading in Scotland and Northern Ireland. Little adults and the grey grubs defoliate rosemary, lavender and some other is known about the threat this beetle poses to native Snake’s head fritillary related plants.

The European Alps are home to nearly 4,500 taxa of vascular plants, and have been recognised as one of 24 centres of plant diversity in Europe. While species richness decreases with increasing elevation, the proportion of endemic species increases – of the 501 endemic taxa in the European Alps, 431 occur in subalpine to nival belts. he varied geology of the pre and they are converting to shrub land and forest awareness of its increasing vulnerability. inner Alps, extreme temperature with reduced species diversity.

  • Networks in a Large-Scale Phylogenetic Analysis: Reconstructing Evolutionary History of Asparagales (Lilianae) Based on Four Plastid Genes
    Networks in a Large-Scale Phylogenetic Analysis: Reconstructing Evolutionary History of Asparagales (Lilianae) Based on Four Plastid Genes Shichao Chen1., Dong-Kap Kim2., Mark W. Chase3, Joo-Hwan Kim4* 1 College of Life Science and Technology, Tongji University, Shanghai, China, 2 Division of Forest Resource Conservation, Korea National Arboretum, Pocheon, Gyeonggi- do, Korea, 3 Jodrell Laboratory, Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, Richmond, United Kingdom, 4 Department of Life Science, Gachon University, Seongnam, Gyeonggi-do, Korea Abstract Phylogenetic analysis aims to produce a bifurcating tree, which disregards conflicting signals and displays only those that are present in a large proportion of the data. However, any character (or tree) conflict in a dataset allows the exploration of support for various evolutionary hypotheses. Although data-display network approaches exist, biologists cannot easily and routinely use them to compute rooted phylogenetic networks on real datasets containing hundreds of taxa. Here, we constructed an original neighbour-net for a large dataset of Asparagales to highlight the aspects of the resulting network that will be important for interpreting phylogeny. The analyses were largely conducted with new data collected for the same loci as in previous studies, but from different species accessions and greater sampling in many cases than in published analyses. The network tree summarised the majority data pattern in the characters of plastid sequences before tree building, which largely confirmed the currently recognised phylogenetic relationships. Most conflicting signals are at the base of each group along the Asparagales backbone, which helps us to establish the expectancy and advance our understanding of some difficult taxa relationships and their phylogeny.
