Smith, 1870), previously recorded from Sicily only through generic data from literature and only one locality in a web forum of amateurs, is confirmed as definitely established in the Island. The Regional distribution of both alien species in Italy is revised based on data taken from literature and reliable reports from web forums. A brief faunistic account on the three native Sceliphron from Sicily is provided: S. destillatorium (Illiger, 1807) and S. spirifex (Linnaeus, 1758) are both new for the Aeolian Islands (respectively reported for Panarea and Vulcano).

Conserv. 11, – (2003) Journal for © Urban & Fischer Verlag http://www.urbanfischer.de/journals/jnc Nature Conservation Constructing Red Numbers for setting conservation priorities of endangered plant species: Israeli flora as a test case Yuval Sapir1*, Avi Shmida1 & Ori Fragman1,2 1 Rotem – Israel Plant Information Center, Dept. of Evolution, Systematics and Ecology,The Hebrew University, Jerusalem, 91904, Israel; e-mail: [email protected] 2 Present address: Botanical Garden,The Hebrew University, Givat Ram, Jerusalem 91904, Israel Abstract A common problem in conservation policy is to define the priority of a certain species to invest conservation efforts when resources are limited. We suggest a method of constructing red numbers for plant species, in order to set priorities in con- servation policy. The red number is an additive index, summarising values of four parameters: 1. Rarity – The number of sites (1 km2) where the species is present. A rare species is defined when present in 0.5% of the area or less. 2. Declining rate and habitat vulnerability – Evaluate the decreasing rate in the number of sites and/or the destruction probability of the habitat. 3. Attractivity – the flower size and the probability of cutting or exploitation of the plant. 4. Distribution type – scoring endemic species and peripheral populations. The plant species of Israel were scored for the parameters of the red number. Three hundred and seventy (370) species, 16.15% of the Israeli flora entered into the “Red List” received red numbers above 6. “Post Mortem” analysis for the 34 extinct species of Israel revealed an average red number of 8.7, significantly higher than the average of the current red list.

  • Dispersal of Algae and Protozoa by the Mud Dauber Wasp (Sceliphron Caementarium Drury) S
    BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES 9 Dispersal of Algae and Protozoa by the Mud Dauber Wasp (Sceliphron caementarium Drury) S. L. SIDES, Pan American College, Edinburg, Texas INTRODUCTION The dispersal of algae and protozoa from isolated streams, ponds, and lakes has long been an interesting problem and one of ecological significance. Some of the basic problems presented by algae and protozoa are: undesirable tastes and odors in water supplies; the clogging of filters in water treatment plants (Palmer, 1962), causing waters to be undesirable for recreation purposes; and possible death of fishes and other animals, either by the production of a toxin or by acting as a bar­ rier to oxygen penetration of the water surface (Gorham, 1962; Palmer, 1962). Within the last 10 years several investigators have shown how algae and protozoa can be dispersed by winds (Schlichting, 1961, 1964) and by water fowl and shore birds (Proctor, 1959; Schlichting, 1960; Malone, 1965). Prior to the work done by Parsons, Schlichting, and Stewart (1966) , Stewart and Schlichting (1966) , and Revill, Stewart, and Schlichting (1967 a&b), there was a dearth of information concerning the role played by insects in the dispersal of algae. Migula (1888) reported 23 species of algae attached to species of aquatic beetles. Ir~n~-Marie (1938) found Olostenum on a dytiscid beetIe, and desmids occurring on a dragonfly. Maguire (1959) reported algae from washings ot mosqUitoes and other insects, but he only classified the algae as green, blue-green, unicellular or filamentoU8. Maguire later (1963 ) reported the dlspersal of aquatic organisms by dragonflies. The present study was designed to determine whether mud daubers are transporters of viable algae and/or protozoa, and if 80, on wblch part of the insect these organisms are transported.

September 1997 Specimens representing 19 orders and 169 arthropod families (mostly insects) were collected from greenleaf manzanita brushfields in northeastern California and identified to species whenever possible. More than500 taxa below the family level wereinventoried, and each listing includes relative frequency of encounter, life stages collected, and dominant role in the greenleaf manzanita community. Specific host relationships are included for some predators and parasitoids. Herbivores, predators, and parasitoids comprised the majority (80 percent) of identified insects and related taxa.

  • Red List of Vascular Plants of the Czech Republic: 3Rd Edition
    Preslia 84: 631–645, 2012 631 Red List of vascular plants of the Czech Republic: 3rd edition Červený seznam cévnatých rostlin České republiky: třetí vydání Dedicated to the centenary of the Czech Botanical Society (1912–2012) VítGrulich Department of Botany and Zoology, Masaryk University, Kotlářská 2, CZ-611 37 Brno, Czech Republic, e-mail: [email protected] Grulich V. (2012): Red List of vascular plants of the Czech Republic: 3rd edition. – Preslia 84: 631–645. The knowledge of the flora of the Czech Republic has substantially improved since the second ver- sion of the national Red List was published, mainly due to large-scale field recording during the last decade and the resulting large national databases. In this paper, an updated Red List is presented and compared with the previous editions of 1979 and 2000. The complete updated Red List consists of 1720 taxa (listed in Electronic Appendix 1), accounting for more then a half (59.2%) of the native flora of the Czech Republic. Of the Red-Listed taxa, 156 (9.1% of the total number on the list) are in the A categories, which include taxa that have vanished from the flora or are not known to occur at present, 471 (27.4%) are classified as critically threatened, 357 (20.8%) as threatened and 356 (20.7%) as endangered. From 1979 to 2000 to 2012, there has been an increase in the total number of taxa included in the Red List (from 1190 to 1627 to 1720) and in most categories, mainly for the following reasons: (i) The continuing human pressure on many natural and semi-natural habitats is reflected in the increased vulnerability or level of threat to many vascular plants; some vulnerable species therefore became endangered, those endangered critically threatened, while species until recently not classified may be included in the Red List as vulnerable or even endangered.
