  • Syntaxonomy and Nomenclatural Adjustments of Steppe-Like Vegetation on Shallow Ultramafic Soils in the Balkans Included in the Order Halacsyetalia Sendtneri
    Tuexenia 36: 293–320. Göttingen 2016. doi: 10.14471/2016.36.016, available online at www.tuexenia.de Syntaxonomy and nomenclatural adjustments of steppe-like vegetation on shallow ultramafic soils in the Balkans included in the order Halacsyetalia sendtneri Syntaxonomisch-nomenklatorische Änderungen bei den Steppenrasen der Ordnung Halacsyetalia sendtneri auf flachgründig-ultramafischen Böden des Balkans Nevena Kuzmanović1, *, Eva Kabaš1, Slobodan Jovanović1, Snežana Vukojičić1, Svetlana Aćić2, Boštjan Surina3, 4 & Dmitar Lakušić1, * 1University of Belgrade, Faculty of Biology, Institute of Botany and Botanical Garden “Jevremovac”, Takovska 43, 11000 Belgrade, Serbia, [email protected]; [email protected]; 2University of Belgrade, Faculty of Agriculture, Department of Botany, Nemanjina 6, Belgrade-Zemun, Serbia, [email protected]; 3University of Primorska, Faculty of Mathematics, Natural Sciences and Information Technologies, Glagoljaška 8, 6000 Koper, Slovenia; 4Natural History Museum Rijeka, Lorenzov prolaz 1, 51000 Rijeka, Croatia *Corresponding authors Abstract Dry open rocky grassland vegetation on shallow ultramafic soils in the Central Balkans represents typical secondary grasslands, which have developed mainly in the zone of thermophilous mixed decid- uous broadleaved and pine forests. Although all relevant national and regional syntaxonomic reviews classify these rocky grasslands within the distinct order Halacsyetalia sendtneri, the syntaxonomic position of the order in different systems of classification has varied in the past. Considering this as well as the fact that there have been no synoptic works on this specific vegetation type, we gathered all available data on the order Halacsyetalia sendtnerii from the serpentinites of the Western and Central Balkan Peninsula for its critical evaluation. The results obtained in our analyses allowed us to propose a new syntaxonomic concept, which is partly in accordance with previously published syntaxonomic schemes.

  • EMN Ad-Hoc Query on Intra-Schengen Border Monitoring
    EMN Ad-Hoc Query on Intra-Schengen border monitoring and border control Requested by Dylano de Wilde on 4th June 2018 Border Responses from Austria, Belgium, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Estonia, Finland, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Poland, Slovak Republic, Slovenia, Sweden, United Kingdom, Norway (20 in total) Disclaimer: The following responses have been provided primarily for the purpose of information exchange among EMN NCPs in the framework of the EMN. The contributing EMN NCPs have provided, to the best of their knowledge, information that is up-to-date, objective and reliable. Note, however, that the information provided does not necessarily represent the official policy of an EMN NCPs' Member State. Background information: Over the past couple of years, the Schengen area has come to face several challenges. In particular in response to a range of terrorist attacks as well as the so-called European refugee “crisis”. Member states have used a variety of measures to enhance the monitoring of cross border mobility. These measures are not exclusively taken at the external border of the European Union, but also increasingly at the physical borders between two Schengen States. By, for instance, temporarily reintroducing border checks under Article 29 of the Schengen Border Code (SBC) or by using the possibility to carry out police or immigration checks in a region around the physical border under Article 23 SBC. In the light of one of the core principles of the European Union and the Schengen Agreement, the principle of free movement, the temporary introduction of border checks under article 29 SBC is to be seen as a last resort that can only be justified by exceptional circumstances.
