Following investigations done on Kriti Papilionidae, the first author visited all the known sites adding some new biotopes; the first intent was searching for the food plants, the preimaginal instars, the places of flight with the feeding plants of adults. The first author, with the cooper­ ation of three collegues, travelled the island for more than 880 km, visiting almost all localities cited by Olivier and trying to look for new biotopes in the southern part of Rhodes; the climatic situation was in syntony with the annual trend although a disturbance in the first days of April has delayed the emergence of populations of All. cerisy at higher altitudes in the center of the island, while those at sea level have already vanished; in the intermediate area the flight period was at its peak; generally the butterflies were scarce, only All. cerisy and Manióla telmessia were found in some numbers. We didn’t find any Archon apollinus despite the search along the whole of Rhodes; we presume that the flight period had already ended for quite a time because, at least, some worn specimens should have been found; if apollinus is present on Rhodes island, it is surely very local and rare.

Twelve caves of Western Mecsek, Southwest Hungary were examined between September 2010 and April 2013 from the millipede (Diplopoda) faunistical point of view. Ten species were found in eight caves, which consisted eutroglophile and troglobiont elements as well.

  • Die Molluskenfauna Der Insel Rhodos 1
    ©Naturhistorisches Museum Wien, download unter www.biologiezentrum.at Ann. Naturhistor. Mus. Wien 80 681-780 Wien, November 1976 Die Molluskenfauna der Insel Rhodos 1. Teil In der Serie: Ergebnisse der von Dr. 0. PAGET und Dr. E. KRITSCHER auf Rhodos durchgeführten zoologischen Sammelreisen. XVII. Mollusca I Von OLIVER E. PAGET X) (Mit 1 Karte, 2 Abbildungen und 7 Tafeln) Manuskript eingelangt am 1. März 1976 Die Molluskenfauna der Insel Rhodos hat schon vor langer Zeit die Mala- kologen interessiert. Da Rhodos seinem geologischen Aufbau nach dem kleinasiatischen Fest- land zuzurechnen ist, zeigt es darin wesentliche Unterschiede zu Mittel- griechenland und auch zu vielen anderen Inseln des ägäischen Raumes. Es war daher zu erwarten, daß zumindest ein Teil der Fauna dieser Insel ebenfalls eher dem kleinasiatischen als dem mittelgriechischen Gebiet angenähert sein wird. Diese Vermutung wurde durch die Aufsammlungen auch zum Teil be- stätigt, so daß die einige Jahre später im Gebiet der östlichen und südlichen Türkei durchgeführten Aufsammlungen, an denen vom Wiener Naturhistori- schen Museum neben dem Autor noch Dr. E. KRITSCHER und Oberpräparator K. BILEK teilnahmen, sicherlich weitere Bestätigungen dieser Vermutung bringen werden. Die Publikation der bei dieser Reise gefundenen Ergebnisse wird ent- sprechende Unterlagen dafür liefern. So wechselvoll die Geschichte der Insel Rhodos war, so wechselvoll waren auch die Untersuchungen, die die Erforschung der Molluskenfauna dieser Insel zum Ziel hatten. Aus der Zeit der Besetzung durch die Türken, die von 1523—1912 dauerte, stammen die wohl ersten publizierten Aufsammlungen. FORSKAL (1786), der bei einem kurzen Aufenthalt die Stadt Rhodos besuchte, fand Eobania vermiculata (0. F. MÜLLER) und veröffentlichte diese Mitteilung im Conchylien-Cabinet, v.
