Introduction Methods Examination of malacofauna can produce very detailed information about Samples for the magnetic susceptibility (MS) variations have previously been collected paleoenvironmental and paleoclimatological conditions during Quaternary, over the whole investigated sections with step each 5 cm. as it shows different types of biotopes necessary for each specie. Holocene floodplain Measurements were obtained using a Bartington MS2 susceptibility meter in Laboratory Serbia is known to have well-studied LPS. The study area of this paper for paleoenvironmental reconstruction, Faculty of Sciences, University of Novi Sad. belongs to the Mošorin village on the northern side of the Titel loess plateau (TLP). The section name is Veliki Surduk (Big Gully). For the purpose of malacological studies samples of approximately 10 kg were taken continuously at 20 cm intervals. A total of 26 samples were collected from 5.2 m long TLP is situated near the confluence of Tisa and Danube rivers, in the southern cleaned profile section (ending of S3 to the beginning of S2). central part of the Vojvodina province (Fig. 1), the region known for having the valuable continental climate record for the past million years. Individual fossils were extracted from loess sediments by washing samples through sieves (0.5–1 mm) in field conditions and then air-dried. Individual shells and shell fragments The Veliki Surduk LPS is 30 m high and covers the last three glacial periods. were further sorted and identified on a dissecting stereomicroscope. The L3 in Serbia was dated to 269± 46 ka (Marković et al., 2015). Identification was done using various malacological literature: Kerney et al.

These include Petrovaradin-Beočin railway track, 17.1 km long, which had been in public railway traffic since 1908. It was in service for both passenger and cargo traffic, and since 1965 only for cargo traffic. Fig.1.

One way to mitigate these problems is to expand green spaces. Roofs, as the last frontier, could be made full use of. Green roofs have become a hot topic in recent years. In this study, I investigated the ability of green roofs to support urban biodiversity by conducting a literature review, and then I sought the criteria for biodiversity roofs under Finnish conditions by interviewing ecologists. My research questions in this study were 1) What kinds of habitats could be “ideal ecosystems” to be mimicked on biodiversity roofs in Finland; 2) which plant species could exist on roofs and whether they contribute to biodiversity; 3) what kinds of substrates support the biodiversity on roofs; 4) whether green roofs support faunal diversity and what faunal taxa could exist on roofs; 5) if and how roof structural characteristics influence roof biodiversity; 6) what kinds of management are practiced on biodiversity roofs; 7) what are people’s attitudes towards or perceptions of biodiversity roofs in general.

Palaeoecological horizons were reconstructed using sedimentological data (organic matter and carbonate content, grain-size distribution and magnetic susceptibility) and the dominance-based malacological results (MZs) supported by habitat and richness charts, moreover multi-variate statistics (cluster analysis). The correlation of the reconstructed palaeoecological horizons with global climatic trends (Marine Isotope Stages) determined the main accumulation processes in the examined areas. The palaeoecological analyses revealed specific accumulation conditions at both sequences, fluvial and aeolian environments at Šarengrad and a possible forest refuge at Zmajevac.

Coles2 1 Department of Biology, University of New Mexico, Albuquerque, New Mexico 87131, U.S.A. 2 Mollusca Section, Department of Biodiversity, National Museum of Wales, Cathays Park, Cardiff CF10 3NP, U.K. Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract: The Pupillidae form an important component of eastern North American land snail biodiversity, representing approx. 12% of the entire fauna, 25-75% of all species and individuals at regional scales, at least 30% of the species diversity, and 33% of individuals within any given site. In some regions pupillids represent 80-100% of total molluscan diversity within sites, notably in taiga, tundra, and the base-poor pine savannas and pocosins of the southeastern coastal plain. Adequate documentation of North American land snail biodiversity thus requires investigators to effi ciently collect and accurately identify individuals of this group. This paper presents a set of annotated keys to the 65 species in this family known to occur in North America east of the Rocky Mountains. The distinguishing taxonomic features, updated county-scale range maps, and ecological conditions favored by each are presented in hopes of stimulating future research in this important group. Key words: microsnail, biodiversity, ecology, biogeography, taxonomy For the last dozen years, our interests in terrestrial Adequate documentation of this diversity thus requires gastropod biodiversity have lead us individually and investigators to effi ciently collect and accurately identify collectively to observe molluscan communities over most of individuals from this family.

Niewielki udział dogodnych siedlisk naturalnych w otoczeniu linii wskazuje, że występowanie gatunku na przy- torzach jest prawdopodobnie efektem zawleczenia wraz z materiałami budowlanymi. Otwarte, suche i nasłonecznione siedliska wzdłuż linii kolejowej stanowią dogodne siedliska zastępcze tego zagrożone- go gatunku mięczaka. SŁOWA KLUCZOWE: wałkówka trójzębna, linie kolejowe, siedliska antropogeniczne ABSTRACT: The paper presents the sites of the Three-toothed Bulin Snail Chondrula tridens (O. F. Müller, 1774) localised in anthropogenic habitats on embankments and in excavations along the Oleś- nica – Gniezno railway (Wielkopolska). In 2015 the species was found in 13 localities on a 100 km long section of the railway between Zduny and Gniezno. As natural habitats of the species in the sur- roundings are scarce, it is probable that the snails were introduced to the sites with building materials. Open, dry, insulated grasslands along tracks are suitable alternative habitats for this endangered snail species. KEY WORDS: Three-toothed Bulin Snail, railways, anthropogenic habitats Wstęp dopodobną rolę takich siedlisk i związanej z ich kształtowaniem działalności człowieka w Celem artykułu jest wskazanie na liczne rozprzestrzenianiu się gatunku.

It is sit- uated in Vojvodina, in the north of Serbia. It is immersed in the large plain of the FPanonian basin. Once it was splashed by the waves of the Panonian Sea, where- as today, towards its peaks climb regional and local roads that reveal beautiful local sto- ries about nature, ecology, the National Park, monasteries, tame mountain villages and temperamental people.
