Rediscovery of the Endemic Species Chara Rohlenae Vilh. 1912 (Characeae) - Believed Extinct - on the Balkan Peninsula
42 (1): (2018) 109-115 Original Scientific Paper Rediscovery of the endemic species Chara rohlenae Vilh. 1912 (Characeae) - believed extinct - on the Balkan Peninsula Jelena Blaženčić✳ and Branka Stevanović University of Belgrade, Faculty of Biology, Institute of Botany and Botanical Garden „Jevremovac“, Takovska 43, 11000 Belgrade, Serbia ABSTRACT: The species Chara rohlenae was described more than a hundred years ago (in 1912) as a species new to science on the basis of herbarium specimens collected from the Mratinje locality in Montenegro. In addition, there were some other herbarium specimens of this charophyte originating from Greece (collected in 1885) and also ones from Bosnia and Herzegovina (collected in 1925), which, however, were taxonomically determined in different ways and not clearly identified as belonging to the species C. rohlenae. For such a long period of time thereafter, no new data on the presence of the given species in the Balkans were recorded, and for this reason the species was considered to be extinct (EX glob ?) in accordance with IUCN criteria. However, during botanical surveys conducted in 2010 and 2012, C. rohlenae was re- discovered on the Balkan Peninsula, in the Mokra Gora Mountain (a spur of the Prokletije massif) in Serbia. This finding confirms existence of the species in the wild. Morphological characteristics of the newly found specimens of C. rohlenae from Serbia are investigated in the present study. Keywords: Charophyta, new records, endemic species, Chara rohlenae Received: 6 April 2017 Revision accepted: 16 August 2017 UDC: 497:582.2.271 DOI: INTRODUCTION on the plant material collected in Montenegro.

Zoogeography of the Holarctic Species of the Noctuidae (Lepidoptera): Importance of the Bering Ian Refuge
© Entomologica Fennica. 8.XI.l991 Zoogeography of the Holarctic species of the Noctuidae (Lepidoptera): importance of the Bering ian refuge Kauri Mikkola, J, D. Lafontaine & V. S. Kononenko Mikkola, K., Lafontaine, J.D. & Kononenko, V. S. 1991 : Zoogeography of the Holarctic species of the Noctuidae (Lepidoptera): importance of the Beringian refuge. - En to mol. Fennica 2: 157- 173. As a result of published and unpublished revisionary work, literature compi lation and expeditions to the Beringian area, 98 species of the Noctuidae are listed as Holarctic and grouped according to their taxonomic and distributional history. Of the 44 species considered to be "naturall y" Holarctic before this study, 27 (61 %) are confirmed as Holarctic; 16 species are added on account of range extensions and 29 because of changes in their taxonomic status; 17 taxa are deleted from the Holarctic list. This brings the total of the group to 72 species. Thirteen species are considered to be introduced by man from Europe, a further eight to have been transported by man in the subtropical areas, and five migrant species, three of them of Neotropical origin, may have been assisted by man. The m~jority of the "naturally" Holarctic species are associated with tundra habitats. The species of dry tundra are frequently endemic to Beringia. In the taiga zone, most Holarctic connections consist of Palaearctic/ Nearctic species pairs. The proportion ofHolarctic species decreases from 100 % in the High Arctic to between 40 and 75 % in Beringia and the northern taiga zone, and from between 10 and 20 % in Newfoundland and Finland to between 2 and 4 % in southern Ontario, Central Europe, Spain and Primorye. -

INTRODUCTION The fauna of noctuoid moths (the families Erebidae and Noctuidae) of Kazakhstan is still poorly studied. Only the fauna of West Kazakhstan has been studied satisfactorily (Gorbunov 2011). On the faunas of other parts of the country, only fragmentary data are published (Lederer, 1853; 1855; Aibasov & Zhdanko 1982; Hacker & Peks 1990; Lehmann et al. 1998; Benedek & Bálint 2009; 2013; Korb 2013). In contrast to the West Kazakhstan, the fauna of noctuid moths of East Kazakhstan was studied inadequately. -
Perennials for Cut Flower Production Factsheet 17/20
Perennials for Cut Flower Production Factsheet 17/20 INTRODUCTION The fact sheet 16/20 covered the important annual and biennial species for commercial cut flower production. This fact sheet deals with hardy perennials which constitute an equally important branch of commercial flower growing as they produce the bulk of flowers produced in the open ground in late spring, summer and autumn. Most of the plants are garden favourites, though in many instances types or varieties especially suitable for the flower trade have been developed for commercial culture. Although there are well established or standard types of perennials used as cut flowers, examples being alstromeria, peony and scabious, the fashion in floral decoration and consumer choice is continually changing, therefore there is a wide range mentioned in this note. Most of the subjects dealt with maybe treated similarly as regards propagation, plant spacing and general culture. SITE NUTRITION A south-facing aspect is desirable but not essential, Little experimental work has been carried out in relation however shelter from prevailing winds is important. to specific fertilisation of perennial cut flowers, however Returns for flowers mentioned in this note can be general principles apply so it is important that in order increased considerably if the flowers can be produced to obtain the desired length and strength of flower a week or two earlier.

Горно-Алтайска, турбазы «Катунь», сел: Майма, Кызыл-Озёк, Верх-Карагуж, Манжерок, Анос, Еланда, Ороктой. Ввиду большого объема материала в данной работе речь пойдет только о совках группы Quadrifinae. При этом для более полной сводки по указанным чешуекрылым в работу включены также сведения, опубликованные ранее [1-7]. Квадрифиноидный комплекс Совок Северного Алтая включает в настоящее время 65 видов, относящихся к 8 подсемействам. Их номенклатура приводится в основном по системе [13] с некоторыми изменениями. Виды, найденные нами впервые, обозначены знаком *. Географическое распространение указывается по литературным источникам [8-12, 17 и др.]. Подсемейство Beninae (=Nycteolinae) представлено 3 видами (табл. 1). Из них Pseudoips fagana F. и Nycteola degenerana Hb. имеют широкие ареалы, занимающие всю умеренную полосу Евразии, доходя на восток до Сахалина и Японии. На Алтае населяют разреженные смешанные и пойменные леса, искусственные посадки. Развиваются в одном поколении с зимовкой куколок (P. fagana F.) и бабочек (N. degenerana Hb.). Кормовыми растениями гусениц служат береза, осина, тополь, ива. Третий вид – Earias (=Halias) chlorana L. приурочен к поймам рек, берегам озер, заросшим ивняком. Бабочки встречались в июне и августе.
