Still wild, with sharp and elegant peaks, impressive reefs that overlook the entire Herzegovina, it’s proclaimed as most attractive mountain in the country. Prenj is located at the heart of Dinaric Alps, in the northern part of Herzegovina region, and with its numerous demanding peaks over 2000masl, highest being Zelena glava (Green head - 2155 masl), it has been called the “Herzegovinian Alps” by mountaineers. The tour High mountains in Herzegovina region are ideal for ski touring as they are covered with plenty of snow in winter. This tour starts on Ruiste at 1000 masl from where it leads us pretty soon in to the higher grounds between 1400 and 2000 masl suitable for ski touring. After we check in in to Mountain Hut (1450 masl) to leave the surplus equipment we continue to our ski tour around the beautiful mountain. In the evening we return to the Mountain Hut for the overnight stay. Next morning we engage on our tour through central part of Prenj (800 ascent) and return to the Mountain Hut on another route later in the afternoon. We head back to Ruiste for a warm dinner with traditional national dishes of Herzegovina and we drive back to Mostar. Mountains invite you to sharpen your senses WELCOME!

Biodiversity of Herpetofauna of the Prenj and Čvrsnica Mts. (Bosnia and Herzegovina)
Original Scientific Paper Hyla VOL. 2014., No. 2, Str. 4 - 19 Šunje et al. 2014 ISSN: 1848-2007 Biodiversity of herpetofauna of the Prenj and Čvrsnica Mts.

Literature data on herpetofauna of Prenj and Čvrsnica is old, sporadic and rare. The aim of this research was to collect all data on the herpetofauna for the given mountains and determine the importance of the area for the herpetofaunal biodiversity of Bosnia and Herzegovina (B-H). The analysis of data showed that the area of Prenj and Čvrsnica is inhabited by 11 species of amphibians (55 % of the total number of amphibians in B-H) and 24 species of reptiles (83% of the total number of reptiles in B-H) which differ in vertical and horizontal distribution. The registered biodiversity is extremely high and is a consequence of the geographical position of these mountains which border the Mediterranean climate zone in B-H. Key words: distribution, submediterranean, amphibians, reptiles, biodiversity. Sažetak Herpetološka istraživanja planina Prenj i Čvrsnica imaju relativno dugu tradiciju, no znanje o njima još uvijek nije zadovoljavajuće. Literaturni podaci o herpetofauni Prenja i Čvrsnice su stari, sporadični i rijetki.

Chorological Characterization and Distribution of the Balkan Endemic Vascular Flora in Bosnia and Herzegovina
38 (1): (2014) 167-184 Original Scientific Paper Chorological characterization and distribution of the Balkan endemic vascular flora in Bosnia and Herzegovina Biljana Lubarda1, Vladimir Stupar2, Đorđije Milanović2 and Vladimir Stevanović3✳ 1 Faculty of Science, University of Banja Luka, Republic of Srpska, Bosnia and Herzegovina 2 Faculty of Forestry, University of Banja Luka, Republic of Srpska, Bosnia and Herzegovina 3 Institute of Botany, Faculty of Biology, University of Belgrade, Serbia ABSTRacT: 298 endemic taxa at the species and subspecies rank have been found in the territory of Bosnia and Herzegovina (B&H). Each taxon has been classified into its corresponding chorological group, subgroup and floristic element. The basic chorological structure of endemic Balkan flora in B&H is composed of five main groups: South-European Mountainous (SEM) with 112 taxa, 38% of the total endemic Balkan flora in B&H; Mediterranean - Submediterranean (MED-SUBMED), 77 taxa (26%); Central-European Mountainous (CEM) with 69 taxa (23%); Central-European (CE) with 34 taxa (11%); and Pontic (PONT) with six taxa (2%). Within SEM and CEM groups, the most abundant were Dinaric and Dinaric-Balkan elements, in the MED-SUBMED group it was Adriatic Submediterranean, while in the CE group there were Illyrian and Illyrian-Balkan floristic elements. The distribution of each taxon in B&H was mapped in the network of MGRS squares, with a precision level of 10 km. The richness of Balkan endemic flora in B&H was presented as the number of taxa, at the species and subspecies ranks in each MGRS square 10 x10 km. In the same way, the distribution of endemic taxa of each basic chorological groups was represented.

THE BIODIVERSITY OF ENDEMIC DEVELOPMENT CENTERS IN THE AREA OF HERZEGOVINA (W. BALKANS) AS A CONTRIBUTION TO TARGETS 2010 1, 2Dr. sci. Sulejman Redžić, Full Professor, Corr. Member of ANUBiH 1Dr. sci. Senka Barudanović, Assoc. Professor 3Dejan Kulijer, BSc in Biology 1Sabina Trakić, BSc in Biology 1 CEPRES – Center of Ecology and Natural Resources, Facultry of Science University of Sarajevo 2 Academy of Sciences and Arts of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina 3 National Museum of BiH, Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina [[email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected]] Abstract: Like many countries in transition and Bosnia and Herzegovina is builted in a very complex economic and even political situation. Every day increases the number of unemployed, more poor people. State tries to solve the problem through an intensive privatization, which is often unfair and long-term harmful. Trying to find viable solutions to be generated in the field of natural resources (forestry, secondary forest products, medicinal wild plants, hunting, hydro-power sector, wind energy, highlighted exploitation of mineral and fossil resources). Therefore are very common forms of excessive use of natural resources. At the same time to avoid the laws and general legal measures in achieving sustainable practices. All this leads to serious loss of basic natural values (biodiversity, hydrological and geo morphological diversity). Daily disappearing plant and animal species and valuable habitats. On the other hand, Bosnia is one of the few countries that still preserved some parts of the natural diversity of high value. These are primarily endemic development centers in many river canyons and high mountain karst areas.
