The number of species per site ranged from 8 to 21 (mean 13.88), the number of specimens from 38 to 1,224 (mean 347.7). The aim of the inventory was to fill the gaps in the distribution knowledge and to identify symptoms of anthropogenic influence on the malacocoenoses. Most species were euryoecious and/or widely distributed. The results were compared to other biogeographically and ecologically similar, but mostly less human- affected areas. The studied habitats showed unbalanced dominance structure, small between-site similarity and small proportion of forest-dwellers, combined with the near-absence or absence of clausiliids and other tree-climbing and/or timber-dependent species. These seem to be crucial symptoms of anthropogenic changes in effect at present or in the past. KEy words: gastropods, nature reserve, N-C.

POKRYSZKO Museum of Natural History, Wroc³aw University, Sienkiewicza 21, 50-335 Wroc³aw, Poland (e-mail: [email protected], [email protected]) ABSTRACT: Information on thedistribution on theAlpine M. badia in Poland dates from the 1960s and was not verified subsequently. A new locality was discovered in 2003 (Bystrzyckie Mts, Zieleniec near Duszniki-Zdrój); it forms a part of a group of isolated, Polish and Czech localities on the border of the species’ distribution range. In the discussed part of the range the species is threatened by habitat destruction and climatic changes. It is legally protected in Poland but preserving its populations requires habitat protection. The preferred habi- tat is herb-rich beech forest, and cool and humid climate is crucial for the species’ survival. The composition of the accompanying malacofauna varies among the sites which is probably associated with their origin. M. badia is oviparous; in May and June it produces batches of 1–3 eggs. The eggs are partly calcified, 1.39–1.61 in major and 1.32–1.45 mm in minor diameter. The incubation period is 16–19 days; the hatching is asynchron- ous; the juveniles reach adult size in 7–8 months. Some data on shell variation are provided; the number of ap- ertural folds varies more widely than formerly believed.

IVAILO KANEV DEDOV Central Laboratory of General Ecology, 2 Gagarin Str., BG-1113 Sofia, Bulgaria, e-mail: [email protected] DEDOV I.K., 2008: Terrestrial gastropods (Mollusca, Gastropoda) of the Bulgarian part of the Alibotush Mts. – Malacologica Bohemoslovaca, 7: 17–20. Online serial at <http://mollusca.sav.sk> 20-Feb-2008. This work presents results of two years collecting efforts within the project “The role of the alpine karst area in Bulgaria as reservoir of species diversity”. It summarizes distribution data of 44 terrestrial gastropods from the Bulgarian part of Alibotush Mts. Twenty-seven species are newly recorded from the Alibotush Mts., 13 were con- firmed, while 4 species, previously known from the literature, were not found. In the gastropod fauna of Alibotush Mts. predominate species from Mediterranean zoogeographic complex. A large part of them is endemic species, and this demonstrates the high conservation value of large limestone areas in respect of terrestrial gastropods.

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.

  • Molluscs of the Dürrenstein Wilderness Area
    Molluscs of the Dürrenstein Wilderness Area S a b i n e F ISCHER & M i c h a e l D UDA Abstract: Research in the Dürrenstein Wilderness Area (DWA) in the southwest of Lower Austria is mainly concerned with the inventory of flora, fauna and habitats, interdisciplinary monitoring and studies on ecological disturbances and process dynamics. During a four-year qualitative study of non-marine molluscs, 96 sites within the DWA and nearby nature reserves were sampled in cooperation with the “Alpine Land Snails Working Group” located at the Natural History Museum of Vienna. Altogether, 84 taxa were recorded (72 land snails, 12 water snails and mussels) including four endemics and seven species listed in the Austrian Red List of Molluscs. A reference collection (empty shells) of molluscs, which is stored at the DWA administration, was created. This project was the first systematic survey of mollusc fauna in the DWA. Further sampling might provide additional information in the future, particularly for Hydrobiidae in springs and caves, where detailed analyses (e.g. anatomical and genetic) are needed. Key words: Wilderness Dürrenstein, Primeval forest, Benign neglect, Non-intervention management, Mollusca, Snails, Alpine endemics.

  • Using the Jolly-Seber Model to Characterise Xerolenta Obvia (Gastropoda: Geomitridae) Population ISSN 2255-9582
    Environmental and Experimental Biology (2020) 18: 83–94 Original Paper http://doi.org/10.22364/eeb.18.08 Using the Jolly-Seber model to characterise Xerolenta obvia (Gastropoda: Geomitridae) population ISSN 2255-9582 Beāte Cehanoviča1, Arturs Stalažs2* 1Dobele State Gymnasium, Dzirnavu 2, Dobele LV–3701, Latvia 2Institute of Horticulture, Graudu 1, Ceriņi, Krimūnu pagasts, Dobeles novads LV–3701, Latvia *Corresponding author, E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The terrestrial snail species Xerolenta obvia (Menke) has colonized dry, steppe-like habitats that have been created as a result of human activities in many countries outside the natural range of this species. In Latvia, this species was first recorded in 1989 in Liepāja. Observations in recent years in Liepāja have shown that snails from their initial introduction sites on the railway have also spread to the sand dune habitats within the city limits. Given that there are no snails in dune habitats that are biologically equivalent to X. obvia, this species is considered to be potentially invasive. As the distribution trends of this species in Liepāja indicate a possible threat to dry habitats in natural areas, detailed study of the species was conducted for the population of this species located in Dobele. Monitoring was performed from May 26 to August 5, 2019, carrying out 11 surveys with one week interval using the capture and re-capture method. The maximum recorded distance travelled by of one snail was 29.7 m; the calculated minimum estimated population density was 170 individuals and the maximum was 2004 individuals. Key words: alien species, Dobele population, eastern heath snail, Helicella candicans, Helicella obvia, potentially invasive species.
