Within Ariantinae, C. obtusus stands out because of its aberrant cylindrical shell shape. Here, we present phylogenetic trees based on these five marker sequences and discuss the position of C. obtusus and phylogeographical scenarios in comparison with previously published results. Our results provide strong support for the sister-group relationship between Cylindrus and Arianta confirming previous studies and imply that the split between the two genera is quite old. The tree reveals a phylogeographical pattern of Ariantinae with a well-supported clade comprising the Balkan taxa which is the sister group to a clade with individuals from Alpine localities.

    British Arachnological Society The Newsletter July 2006, No. 106 Editor: Richard Gallon; [email protected] 22nd European Colloquium of Arachnology, Blagoevgrad, Bulgaria, 1st–6th August 2005 by Dmitri Logunov Bulgaria, an important but yet in many ways relatively unknown country of the Balkans, hosted the 22nd European Colloquium of Arachnology (ECA). The Colloquium, organised by the Institute of Zoology (the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences), was held at the American University of Blagoevgrad (Fig. 1), a beautiful small town and the administrative capital of the Pirin Region in SW Bulgaria. It attracted 99 participants and 19 accompanying persons from 26 countries. Incidentally, the European nature of the arachnological colloquium was well extended as far south-east as Turkey and also included participants from India – for the first time there were participants from the Ni ğde University of Turkey (the research group of Dr A. Topçu) and from the Division of Arachnology of the Sacred Heart College in Kerala. I travelled to Bulgaria with my family and other colleagues in the ‘Manchester party’, Dave Penney, Emma Shaw and Sue Bennett, on 31st of July, i.e. the day before the official start of the Colloquium. Philip Pearson from Norwich joined us in Sofia. As most of the participants were arriving on the same day, we started reuniting with old friends in Frankfurt airport, where we all had to change planes or begin our journey to Sofia. More colleagues were met in Sofia airport and, as a result, Figure 1. The American University of Blagoevgrad, a scheduled public bus from Sofia to Blagoevgrad was the venue of the 22nd European Colloquium of half-packed with Colloquium participants from many Arachnology.

In the past, this area was used mainly for grazing, but this is currently very limited. Our research site is an aban- doned pasture; therefore, ecological succession is carried out intensively here. Forgot- ten aer-utility areas (abandoned quarries, pastures, industrial sites) are usually con- sidered to be ‘sterile’ and unattractive for zoological research, but this may not always correspond to reality. Even in our research site, we have carried out several rare and surprising ndings. We would like to present the results of our research in this paper.

  • Response of Orthoptera Assemblages to Management of Montane Grasslands in the Western Carpathians
    Biologia 66/6: 1127—1133, 2011 Section Zoology DOI: 10.2478/s11756-011-0115-1 Response of Orthoptera assemblages to management of montane grasslands in the Western Carpathians Vladimíra Fabriciusová, Peter Kaňuch &AntonKrištín* Institute of Forest Ecology, Slovak Academy of Sciences, Ľ. Štúra 2,SK-96053 Zvolen, Slovakia; e-mail: [email protected] Abstract: Montane grassy habitats in the Western Carpathians are relatively well preserved, maintain high species richness and are often important in accordance to the nature conservation policy in Europe. However, knowledge about the impact of farming on the habitat quality there is rather poor. The influence of various management types (permanent sheep pen, irregular grazing, mowing) on Orthoptera diversity and species determining assemblages of these habitats were analysed on 72 plots in Poľana Mts Biosphere Reserve. Altogether, 36 Orthoptera species (15 Ensifera, 21 Caelifera) were found, whereas the highest number of species was found on plots with irregular grazing (28 species), followed by plots with mown grass (17) and permanent sheep pens (14). All four measures of the assemblages’ diversity confirmed significant differences. Using Discriminant Function Analysis, correct classification rate of Orthoptera assemblages was unambiguous according to the type of management. Each form of the management harboured several characteristic species. Thus implications regarding the biodiversity conservation and grassland management were given.

  • Spider Communities of "Yamskaya Steppe" Nature
    The Kharkov Entomological Society Gazette 2002(2003) V10 (1-2) P. 99-107 SPIDER FAUNA (ARANEI) AND ASSEMBLAGES OF THE "YAMSKAYA STEPPE" NATURE RESERVE (BELGOROD AREA, RUSSIA) N. Yu. Polchaninova Kharkov National University, Ukraine polchaninva@mail. ru Introduction The fauna inventory in nature reserves has always been a topical issue. It is especially impor- tant in the steppe reserves that are the only places where the virgin steppes have been preserved. Until recently, the araneofauna of European meadow steppes has not been investigated evenly. The most complete data is given for the "Streletskaya Steppe" (Pichka, 1984 a,b; Polchaninova, 2003) where 160 species were recorded. 84 species are known for the "Kazatskaya Steppe" (Pol- chaninova, 2002) – both parts of the Central-Chermozyom reserve, Kursk Area. The first spider sampling in the "Yamskaya Steppe" was carried out by the members of the Club of young zoolo- gists of Kharkov Pioneer Palace in 1981-1982. The material was identified by the author, and 51 spider species were discovered (Yakushenko at all, 1984). Spiders, as numerous and diverse component of steppe biota, serve a suitable object for monitoring a state of animal communities of various habitats under the influence of different conservation managements. Material and Methods The "Yamskaya Steppe" is part of the "Belogorye" Nature Reserve and is situated in the Central Forest-Steppe in the Central Russian upland (Milkov, 1950). The main part of its terri- tory is occupied by meadow steppe, oak forest being located in a ravine. The steppe is divided into several parts with different mowing regime. There are un-mowed (i.e.

Additionally the effects of small-scale microhabitat heterogeneity of managed and unmanaged forests were determined by analysing the spider assemblages of three different microhabitat structures (i. vegetation, ii. dead wood. iii. litter cover). The spider were collected in a block design by pitfall traps (n=72) in a 4-week interval. To reveal key environmental factors affecting the spider distribution abiotic and biotic habitat parameters (e.g. vegetation parameters, climate parameters, soil moisture) were assessed around each pitfall trap. A TWINSPAN analyses separated pitfall traps from the natural forest from traps of the managed forest. A subsequent discriminant analyses revealed that the temperature, the visible sky, the plant diversity and the mean diameter at breast height as key discriminant factors between the microhabitat groupings designated by The TWINSPAN analyses.

Travaux du Muséum National d’Histoire Naturelle “Grigore Antipa” 62(2): 191–211. https://doi.org/10.3897/travaux.62.e48604 Abstract During 2013–2017, assemblages of bush-crickets and grasshoppers were surveyed in two neighbour- ing flysch mountains – Čergov Mts (48 sites) and Levočské vrchy Mts (62 sites) – in northern part of Western Carpathians. Species were sampled mostly at grasslands and forest edges along elevational gradient between 370 and 1220 m a.s.l. Within the entire area (ca 930 km2) we documented 54 species, representing 38% of Carpathian Orthoptera species richness. We found the same species number (45) in both mountain ranges with nine unique species in each of them. No difference in mean species rich- ness per site was found between the mountain ranges (mean ± SD = 12.5 ± 3.9). Elevation explained 2.9% of variation in site species richness. Elevation and mountain range identity explained 7.3% of assemblages composition. We found new latitudinal as well as longitudinal limits in the distribu- tion for several species.
