  • The Slugs of Bulgaria (Arionidae, Milacidae, Agriolimacidae
    POLSKA AKADEMIA NAUK INSTYTUT ZOOLOGII ANNALES ZOOLOGICI Tom 37 Warszawa, 20 X 1983 Nr 3 A n d rzej W ik t o r The slugs of Bulgaria (A rionidae , M ilacidae, Limacidae, Agriolimacidae — G astropoda , Stylommatophora) [With 118 text-figures and 31 maps] Abstract. All previously known Bulgarian slugs from the Arionidae, Milacidae, Limacidae and Agriolimacidae families have been discussed in this paper. It is based on many years of individual field research, examination of all accessible private and museum collections as well as on critical analysis of the published data. The taxa from families to species are sup­ plied with synonymy, descriptions of external morphology, anatomy, bionomics, distribution and all records from Bulgaria. It also includes the original key to all species. The illustrative material comprises 118 drawings, including 116 made by the author, and maps of localities on UTM grid. The occurrence of 37 slug species was ascertained, including 1 species (Tandonia pirinia- na) which is quite new for scientists. The occurrence of other 4 species known from publications could not bo established. Basing on the variety of slug fauna two zoogeographical limits were indicated. One separating the Stara Pianina Mountains from south-western massifs (Pirin, Rila, Rodopi, Vitosha. Mountains), the other running across the range of Stara Pianina in the^area of Shipka pass. INTRODUCTION Like other Balkan countries, Bulgaria is an area of Palearctic especially interesting in respect to malacofauna. So far little investigation has been carried out on molluscs of that country and very few papers on slugs (mostly contributions) were published. The papers by B a b o r (1898) and J u r in ić (1906) are the oldest ones.

  • Mineral Extraction in England During The
    2: The Prehistoric and Roman Periods Text by Simon Timberlake with contributions from John Barnatt, Lee Bray, David Cranstone, John Pickin and Phil Newman 2.1 Non-ferrous Metals 2.1.1 Prehistory Context Since the late 1980s there has been an abundance of archaeological research based around field discoveries and small to larger scale excavations at prehistoric copper mines in Britain. Twelve sites have now been dated to the Early Bronze Age and over 30 publications have appeared (including Dutton & Fasham 1994; Jenkins 1995; Timberlake 1990a & b, 2002a & b, 2003, 2009a & b; Timberlake & Prag 2005). Also unpublished material including by A Lewis (1990 & 1996). All but two of the sites investigated so far (Alderley Edge and Ecton) are in Wales (some 8 excavated and dated sites: Copa Hill, Cwmystwyth, Nantyreira, Nantyrarian, Tyn y fron, Twll y mwyn, Erglodd, Llancynfelin and Ogof Wyddon), particularly within the mid-Wales orefield. Most significant amongst these is Copa Hill (Timberlake 2003), but two other important mines on the North Wales coast are Great Orme, Llandudno (A Lewis 1996 unpubl) and Parys Mountain on Anglesey (Timberlake 1990a & Jenkins 1995)1. Mixtures of oxidised sulphidic ores including chalcopyrite and malachite – sometimes intimately mixed with galena within the surface oxidised, supergene zones of these vein deposits – were being worked to depths of about 10m within opencasts and up to 30m underground (within the limestone of the Great Orme). Evidence of working methods includes firesetting and/or the use of bone or antler picks and an assemblage of hafted and hand-held stone tools. These consist of a preferential selection of beach cobles brought sometimes up to 25km from the coast (at Copa Hill) and recycled on site.

    Kent and Medway Structure Plan 2006 mapping out the future Supplementary Planning Guidance SPG2 Biodiversity Conservation July 2006 Strategy and Planning Division/ Environment and Waste Division Environment and Regeneration Directorate Kent County Council Tel: 01622 221609 Email: [email protected] Kent and Medway Structure Plan 2006 Supplementary Planning Guidance (SPG2): Biodiversity Conservation Preface i. The purpose of Supplementary Planning Guidance (SPG) is to supplement the policies and proposals of development plans. It elaborates policies so that they can be better understood and effectively applied. SPG should be clearly cross-referenced to the relevant plan policy or policies which it supplements and should be the subject of consultation during its preparation. In these circumstances SPG may be taken into account as a material consideration in planning decisions. ii. A number of elements of SPG have been produced to supplement certain policies in the Kent and Medway Structure Plan. This SPG supplements the following policies: • Policy EN6: International and National Wildlife Designations • Policy EN7: County and Local Wildlife Designations • Policy EN8: Protecting, Conserving and Enhancing Biodiversity • Policy EN9: Trees, Woodland and Hedgerows iii. This SPG has been prepared by Kent County Council working in partnership with a range of stakeholders drawn from Kent local authorities and other relevant agencies. iv. A draft of this SPG was subject to public consultation alongside public consultation on the deposit draft of the Kent and Medway Structure Plan in late 2003. It has been subsequently revised and updated prior to its adoption. A separate report provides a statement of the consultation undertaken, the representations received and the response to these representations.
