    MAMMAL COMMUNICATIONS Volume 6 ISSN 2056-872X (online) Patrick James © Nick C. Downs, Mike Dean, David Wells, and Alisha Wouters Displacing and translocating hazel dormice Mammal Communications Displacing and translocating hazel dormice (Muscardinus avellanarius) as road development mitigation measures. Nick C. Downs1,2*, Mike Dean3, David Wells4, and Alisha Wouters5 ABSTRACT Road development can remove valuable wildlife habitat and reduce habitat connectivity. Where such works impact on European Protected Species in the UK, such as hazel dormice (Muscardinus avellanarius), mitigation is required to satisfy the relevant Statutory Nature Conservation Organisation licensing process. The study described here concerns the removal of dense road verge landscape planting occupied by hazel dormice prior to the construction of a new road junction and slip roads on a dual carriageway in Wales. Pre-construction monitoring started in May 2007, followed by vegetation clearance between August and September. Dormice were displaced into retained habitat through maximum daily vegetation clearance of 30 m lengths (varying widths), in parallel with translocation. This process resulted in the discovery of 48 natural (i.e. not within a nest box) dormouse nests, and the capture of 29 dormice for translocation; 90% were successfully released. Whilst within soft-release cages prior to release, dormice preferred a diet of blackberries (Rubus fruticosus agg.) and freshly picked hazel (Corylus avellana) nuts, prompting a recommendation for early Autumn (mid-August

  • Decayed Trees As Resting Places for Japanese Dormouse, Glirulus Japanicus During the Active Period
    Decayed trees as resting places for Japanese dormouse, Glirulus japanicus during the active period HARUKA AIBA, MANAMI IWABUCHI, CHISE MINATO, ATUSHI KASHIMURA, TETSUO MORITA AND SHUSAKU MINATO Keep Dormouse Museum, 3545 Kiyosato, Takane-cho, Hokuto-city, Yamanashi, 407-0301, Japan Decayed trees were surveyed for their role as a resting place for non-hibernating dormice at two sites, at southwest of Mt. Akadake in Yamanashi Prefecture (35°56’N, 138°25’E). A telemeter located three dormice, which frequently used decayed trees in the daytime, with two at more than 50% of the times. The survey also showed decayed trees made up only about one fourth of all trees present in various conditions in habitat forests. These two data indicated that decayed trees are an important resting place for non-hibernating dormice in the daytime and provide favorable environmental conditions for inhabitation. Using national nut hunt surveys to find protect and raise the profile of hazel dormice throughout their historic range NIDA AL FULAIJ People’s Trust for Endangered Species (list of authors to come) The first Great Nut Hunt (GNH), launched in 1993 had 6500 participants, identifying 334 new sites and thus confirming the presence of dormice in 29 counties in England and Wales. In 2001, 1200 people found 136 sites with positive signs of hazel dormice. The third GNH started in 2009. Over 4000 people registered and to date almost 460 woodland or hedgerow surveys have been carried out, in conjunction with a systematic survey of 286 woodlands on the Isle of Wight. Of the 460 surveys carried out by the general public, 74 found evidence of dormice.

  • Help Us Find Hazel Dormice
    Help us find hazel dormice People’s Trust for Endangered Species are asking members of the public to help us look for signs of dormice this Autumn and Winter. Dormice are rather sleepy creatures for much of the year. They spend as much as six months of each year in hibernation, curled up safely away from the harshest winter weather, under a pile of leaves in the base of a hedge or tree. Before tucking themselves away, dormice fatten up on fruits, berries and nuts so they have enough energy stored to see them through the winter months of inactivity. Why do we need to know where dormice are? Rhys Owen-Roberts Dormice are declining in the UK. We hope to find more places where dormice are present so that we can help and advise woodland owners on how to look after dormice on their land and monitor their well-being. How do we find dormice? Dormice are normally active at night, so it’s unusual to come across one by chance. Luckily, dormice open hazelnuts in a very specific way to get at the kernel within; so by looking at hazelnuts dropped under hazel trees or shrubs we can tell if there have been dormice around, chomping their way through these nuts. How to get involved We need people to look for dormouse-nibbled hazel nuts and let us know what they find. A nut hunt is very simple and a great way to spend some time outside on an autumnal or wintery day. It can be a fun family activity too.

ZooKeys 1004: 129–139. https://doi.org/10.3897/zookeys.1004.57359 Abstract A list of 40 species is presented of the rodents and insectivores collected during a 15-year period from the Republic of Mordovia. The dataset contains more than 24,000 records of rodent and insectivore species from 23 districts, including Saransk. A major part of the data set was obtained during expedition research and at the biological station. The work is based on the materials of our surveys of rodents and insectivo- rous mammals conducted in Mordovia using both trap lines and pitfall arrays using traditional methods. Keywords Insectivores, Mordovia, rodents, spatial distribution Introduction There is a need to review the species composition of rodents and insectivores in all regions of Russia, and the work by Tovpinets et al. (2020) on the Crimean Peninsula serves as an example of such research.

  • About the Book the Format Acknowledgments
    About the Book For more than ten years I have been working on a book on bryophyte ecology and was joined by Heinjo During, who has been very helpful in critiquing multiple versions of the chapters. But as the book progressed, the field of bryophyte ecology progressed faster. No chapter ever seemed to stay finished, hence the decision to publish online. Furthermore, rather than being a textbook, it is evolving into an encyclopedia that would be at least three volumes. Having reached the age when I could retire whenever I wanted to, I no longer needed be so concerned with the publish or perish paradigm. In keeping with the sharing nature of bryologists, and the need to educate the non-bryologists about the nature and role of bryophytes in the ecosystem, it seemed my personal goals could best be accomplished by publishing online. This has several advantages for me. I can choose the format I want, I can include lots of color images, and I can post chapters or parts of chapters as I complete them and update later if I find it important. Throughout the book I have posed questions. I have even attempt to offer hypotheses for many of these. It is my hope that these questions and hypotheses will inspire students of all ages to attempt to answer these. Some are simple and could even be done by elementary school children. Others are suitable for undergraduate projects. And some will take lifelong work or a large team of researchers around the world. Have fun with them! The Format The decision to publish Bryophyte Ecology as an ebook occurred after I had a publisher, and I am sure I have not thought of all the complexities of publishing as I complete things, rather than in the order of the planned organization.

  • Forest Dormouse (Dryomys Nitedula, Rodentia, Gliridae) – a Highly Contagious Rodent in Relation to Zoonotic Diseases
    FORESTRY IDEAS, 2020, vol. 26, No 1 (59): 262–269 FOREST DORMOUSE (DRYOMYS NITEDULA, RODENTIA, GLIRIDAE) – A HIGHLY CONTAGIOUS RODENT IN RELATION TO ZOONOTIC DISEASES Alexey Andreychev1* and Ekaterina Boyarova2 1Department of Zoology, National Research Mordovia State University, Saransk 430005, Russia. *E-mail: [email protected] 2Center for Hygiene and Epidemiology in the Republic of Mordovia, Saransk 430030, 1a Dal’naya Str., Russia. Received: 22 March 2020 Accepted: 23 May 2020 Abstract Republic of Mordovia in Russia is a historical focus for hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome and tularemia. This study aimed at assessing the current status of these foci by studying their rodent reservoirs. Among the small rodents in Mordovia, the red bank vole, the common vole and the house mouse play an important role as carriers of zoonotic diseases. However, it is neces- sary to take into account the role of such а small species as forest dormouse (Dryomys nitedula), which has a high percentage of infection. Of all examined dormice, 66.7 % were found to have antigens of hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome viral pathogen, and 33.3 % - to have antigens of tularemia pathogen. Only one specimen (16.7 %) was found to have no antigens of zoonotic diseases. Our study concluded that the forest dormouse in the Republic of Mordovia was incrim- inated as a pathogen reservoir causing infectious diseases in human.
