One of the causes is habitat fragmentation due to infrastructure. Actions have been taken to re- duce the negative impacts on nature of construction works and the use of infrastructure on nature. The design and lay-out of infrastructure are as essential for people as they are for animals in view of succesful completion of movements. The realisation of faunapassages, for example, can be seen as a contribution towards conservation of our biodiversity. In 1995 the Conference Habitat Fragmentation and Infrastructure was orga- nised in order to draw attention to the importance of the relation between infrastructure and nature. The aim of the conference was to obtain an overview of the status of habitat fragmentation caused by infrastructure in different countries, particularly in Europe; to share experiences within the discipline; discuss research and disseminate information, and to become acquainted with several projects, for example, faunapassages. To show the importance of cooperation between all sectors of society to increase the value of nature can also be seen as a valuable objective. Policymakers, planners, builders and managers of infrastructure together with ecologists can play their roles to increase the ecological value by treating nature with the utmost

  • Anisodactylus Binotatus Fabr., a Carabid Beetle New to New Zealand, and a Review of the Exotic Carabid Fauna
    Pacific Insects 5 (4) : 837-847 December 30, 1963 ANISODACTYLUS BINOTATUS FABR., A CARABID BEETLE NEW TO NEW ZEALAND, AND A REVIEW OF THE EXOTIC CARABID FAUNA By R. L. C. Pilgrim DEPT, OF ZOOLOGY, UNIVERSITY OF CANTERBURY, NEW ZEALAND Abstract: Anisodactylus binotatus Fabr. 1787 (Col.: Carabidae), an introduced species now established in Canterbury (South Island), New Zealand, is reported for the first time. The literature respecting other carabids sometimes recorded as introduced is reviewed; Ago- nochila binotata (White, 1846), Agonum submetallicum (White, 1846), Hypharpax australasiae (Dejean, 1829) and Pentagonica vittipennis Chaudoir, 1877 are shown to be better considered as endemic to the Australia - New Zealand area. Other species are classed as either native to New Zealand, clearly introduced though not all established, or of doubtful occurrence in New Zealand. Introduction: The Carabidae of New Zealand are predominantly endemic species, but a small number of exotic species has been recorded. This paper reports a further introduc­ tion to the carabid fauna of this country and concludes with a survey of recorded exotic Carabidae in New Zealand. Specimens of the newly-recorded species were collected in domestic gardens in Christ­ church, and were included in a collection sent for identification to Dr. E. B. Britton, British Museum (Nat. Hist.), who kindly drew the writer's attention to the fact that they were so far unreported from New Zealand. Description of adult (from New Zealand specimens) Fig. 1. Anisodactylus binotatus Fabricius, 1787 Color: Head, pronotum, elytra and femora black; tibiae and tarsi light brown to red- black ; palps and antennal segments 1-2 brown, remainder of antennae black; leg spines red-brown; head with small red spot on frons between eyes.

  • The Influence of Habitat Type on the Distribution of Carabid Beetles in Traditionally Managed “Dehesa” Ecosystems in NW Spain
    © Entomologica Fennica. 11 October 2006 The influence of habitat type on the distribution of carabid beetles in traditionally managed “dehesa” ecosystems in NW Spain Angela Taboada, D. Johan Kotze, José M. Salgado & Reyes Tárrega Taboada, A., Kotze, D. J., Salgado, J. M. & Tárrega, R. 2006: The influence of habitat type on the distribution of carabid beetles in traditionally managed “dehesa” ecosystems in NW Spain. — Entomol. Fennica 17: 284–295. We investigated the responses of carabid beetles to habitat type at the local scale in traditionally managed “dehesa” ecosystems in NW Spain. The beetles were sampled from two habitat types (central grassland and surrounding forested zone) of five “dehesa” ecosystems, from May to October 2004. A total of 4,374 carabid individuals and 55 species were captured using pitfall trapping. Most of the species were collected from both habitat types, probably due to open spaces created between old-growth trees in the forested zone. Differences in carabid as- semblage composition were found mainly due to Harpalus species characteristic from the central grassland and a few forest specialist species exclusively found in the forested zone. The maintenance of the “dehesa” structure may be of impor- tance for carabid species adapted to the variety of habitats created, and requires the continuation of traditional management practices. A.

    DIPLOMARBEIT Carabid assemblages of various forest communities of the National Park Thayatal (northern part), Lower Austria angestrebter akademischer Grad Magister der Naturwissenschaften (Mag. rer.nat.) Verfasser: Wolfgang Prunner Matrikel-Nummer: 0009403 Studienrichtung /Studienzweig Zoologie (lt. Studienblatt): Betreuer: Ao. Univ.-Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Waitzbauer Wien, im Juni 2009 Summary The study took place in the Nationalpark “Thayatal-Podyjí” (northern Lower Austria) on seven sites from April to October 2005 and additionally on two different sites from April to October 2006. The carabid assemblages of this different sampling sites, which vary in their geology and forest type, were examined by using pitfall traps. Carabids were suitable bioindicators for this study because they are easy to trap and their ecological preferences are well known. The carabid assemblages were characterised by composition of wing morphology types, body sizes and ecological valences and by three ecological parameters which were Shannon Index, Eveness, and Forest Affinity Index (FAI). In total 17 different species were identified and the species number varied from 1 to 10 among the sites. Aptinus bombarda was the most abundant species but could only be found at two sites followed by Abax parallelepipedus, Abax ovalis and Molops piceus. Abax paralellepipedus was the most wide spread species and appeared at six sites. In total more than 80 % of all registrated species were brachypterous, 30 % were stenoecious and 70 % were body size category IV and V which means that large species were in the majority. The Shannon Index was highest with 2.01 at the very well structured oaktree mixed forest MXG3, and the FAI Index showed its highest value at the oaktree hornbeam forest ES and at the beechwood forest MXG2 with 0.98 each.

  • LIVESEED Cross-Visit Report Netherlands
    Report on the Cross-Visit: Netherlands Work Package: WP02 - Improving cultivar testing, seed multiplication & health for high quality seeds for the organic sector Dissemination level: Public Publication Date: 19 December 2019 Main Author: Agnes Bruszik, Kaja Gutzen (IFOAM EU), Abco de Buck (LBI) WP Leader: Frederic Rey (ITAB) 2 About the report This report has been produced in the framework of the Horizon 2020-funded project LIVESEED.1 The main aim of LIVESEED is to boost the production and use of organic seeds and plant breeding for organic agriculture across Europe. It is co-ordinated by IFOAM EU, and its scientific coordinator is FIBL- CH. LIVESEED has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 727230 and by the Swiss State Secretariat for Education, Research and Innovation (SERI) under contract number 17.00090. Work Package 02 of LIVESEED aims at improving cultivar testing, seed multiplication & health for high quality seeds for the organic sector, and partly, at boosting the organic seed production and multiplication in countries where the organic sector is less developed (PL, HU, RO, BG, EL, ES and PT) and/or has particular needs, by promoting smart practices and knowledge exchange. As part of this Work Package, LIVESEED is organising visits to France, Italy, Netherlands and Germany, with the aim to demonstrate and promote smart practices to increase productivity and quality in organic seed production of cereal, vegetable, potato and fruit crops. To foster organic seed multiplication, the cross visits aim to: i) enable a mutual learning process amongst professionals engaged, ii) reveal regional particularities as well as lessons to be generalized, iii) inspire and stimulate regional partners to initiate changes in their system, iv) forge relationships as a basis for a professional network that can sustain after the project period.

  • Lijst Van Gevallen En Tussentijds Vertrokken Wethouders Over De Periode 2002-2006, 2006-2010, 2010-2014, 2014-2018
    Lijst van gevallen en tussentijds vertrokken wethouders Over de periode 2002-2006, 2006-2010, 2010-2014, 2014-2018 Inleiding De lijst van gevallen en tussentijds vertrokken wethouders verschijnt op de website van De Collegetafel als bijlage bij het boek Valkuilen voor wethouders, uitgegeven door Boombestuurskunde Den Haag. De lijst geeft een overzicht van alle gevallen en tussentijds vertrokken wethouders in de periode 2002 tot en met 2018. Deze lijst van gevallen en tussentijds vertrokken wethouders betreft de wethouders die vanwege een politieke vertrouwensbreuk tijdelijk en/of definitief ten val kwamen tijdens de collegeperiode (vanaf het aantreden van de wethouders na de collegevorming tot het einde van de collegeperiode) en van wethouders die om andere redenen tussentijds vertrokken of voor wie het wethouderschap eindigde voor het einde van de reguliere collegeperiode. De valpartijen van wethouders zijn in deze lijst benoemd als gevolg van een tijdelijke of definitieve politieke vertrouwensbreuk, uitgaande van het vertrekpunt dat een wethouder na zijn benoeming of wethouders na hun benoeming als lid van een college het vertrouwen heeft/hebben om volwaardig als wethouder te functioneren totdat hij/zij dat vertrouwen verliest dan wel het vertrouwen verliezen van de hen ondersteunende coalitiepartij(en). Of wethouders al dan niet gebruik hebben gemaakt van wachtgeld is geen criterium voor het opnemen van ten val gekomen wethouders in de onderhavige lijst. Patronen De cijfermatige conclusies en de geanalyseerde patronen in Valkuilen voor wethouders zijn gebaseerd op deze lijst van politiek (tijdelijk of definitief) gevallen en tussentijds vertrokken wethouders. De reden van het ten val komen of vertrek is in de lijst toegevoegd zodat te zien is welke bijvoorbeeld politieke valpartijen zijn.
