(Mollusca, Gastropoda) of the Bulgarian Part of the Alibotush Mts
Malacologica Bohemoslovaca (2008), 7: 17–20 ISSN 1336-6939 Terrestrial gastropods (Mollusca, Gastropoda) of the Bulgarian part of the Alibotush Mts. 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.

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. -

Folk Taxonomy, Nomenclature, Medicinal and Other Uses, Folklore, and Nature Conservation Viktor Ulicsni1* , Ingvar Svanberg2 and Zsolt Molnár3
Ulicsni et al. Journal of Ethnobiology and Ethnomedicine (2016) 12:47 DOI 10.1186/s13002-016-0118-7 RESEARCH Open Access Folk knowledge of invertebrates in Central Europe - folk taxonomy, nomenclature, medicinal and other uses, folklore, and nature conservation Viktor Ulicsni1* , Ingvar Svanberg2 and Zsolt Molnár3 Abstract Background: There is scarce information about European folk knowledge of wild invertebrate fauna. We have documented such folk knowledge in three regions, in Romania, Slovakia and Croatia. We provide a list of folk taxa, and discuss folk biological classification and nomenclature, salient features, uses, related proverbs and sayings, and conservation. Methods: We collected data among Hungarian-speaking people practising small-scale, traditional agriculture. We studied “all” invertebrate species (species groups) potentially occurring in the vicinity of the settlements. We used photos, held semi-structured interviews, and conducted picture sorting. Results: We documented 208 invertebrate folk taxa. Many species were known which have, to our knowledge, no economic significance. 36 % of the species were known to at least half of the informants. Knowledge reliability was high, although informants were sometimes prone to exaggeration. 93 % of folk taxa had their own individual names, and 90 % of the taxa were embedded in the folk taxonomy. Twenty four species were of direct use to humans (4 medicinal, 5 consumed, 11 as bait, 2 as playthings). Completely new was the discovery that the honey stomachs of black-coloured carpenter bees (Xylocopa violacea, X. valga)were consumed. 30 taxa were associated with a proverb or used for weather forecasting, or predicting harvests. Conscious ideas about conserving invertebrates only occurred with a few taxa, but informants would generally refrain from harming firebugs (Pyrrhocoris apterus), field crickets (Gryllus campestris) and most butterflies. -

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. -

Thus the impact of management on two xerothermophilous terrestrial gastropod species, Zebrina detrita and Caucasotachea UNESCO Wienerwald vindobonensis, and on land snails in general, was evaluated in the vineyard area of northern Vienna. This area belongs to the buffer zone of UNESCO Wienerwald Biosphere Reserve in Austria. A total of 18 sites were investigated, including vineyard Biosphere Reserve embankments and dry meadows with different intensity levels of clearing and grub- bing in recent years. Occurrence of both target species and their ability to recolonize Mountain range newly created habitats were assessed. Snails are able to colonize new areas in direct vicinity of existing populations that are above detection level. Only annually repeated Alps clearing of meadows and embankments with originally strong shrub coverage result- ed in a visible effect. Continuous clearing efforts over 10 years were associated with Country a dense population of Z. detrita on a formerly unsuited bush-covered meadow. In contrast, vineyard embankments that were cut free just once within two years before Austria the study harboured only a few specimens of Z. -

Species Distribution Model Selection and Assessment of Performance
ASSOCIATIONS BETWEEN HABITAT QUALITY AND BODY SIZE IN THE CARPATHIAN LAND SNAIL VESTIA TURGIDA: SPECIES DISTRIBUTION MODEL SELECTION AND ASSESSMENT OF PERFORMANCE V.Tytar1, O.Baidashnikov2 1Schmalhausen Institute of Zoology, NAS of Ukraine vul. B. Khmelnytskoho, 15, Kyiv, 01030 Ukraine 2National Museum of Natural History, NAS of Ukraine vul. B. Khmelnytskoho, 15, Kyiv, 01601 Ukraine 1E-mail: [email protected] 2E-mail: [email protected] Associations between habitat quality and body size in the Carpathian land snail Vestia turgida: species distribution model selection and assessment of performance. Tytar V., Baidashnikov O. – Species distribution models (SDMs) are generally thought to be good indicators of habitat suitability, and thus of species’ performance, consequently SDMs can be validated by checking whether the areas projected to have the greatest habitat quality are occupied by individuals or populations with higher than average fitness. We hypothesized a positive and statistically significant relationship between observed in the field body size of the snail V. turgida and modelled habitat suitability, tested this relationship with linear mixed models, and found that indeed, larger individuals tend to occupy high-quality areas, as predicted by the SDMs. However, by testing several SDM algorithms, we found varied levels of performance in terms of expounding this relationship. Marginal R 2 , expressing the variance explained by the fixed terms in the regression models, was adopted as a measure of functional accuracy, and used to rank the SDMs accordingly. In this respect, the Bayesian additive regression trees (BART) algorithm (Carlson, 2020) gave the best result, despite the low AUC and TSS. By restricting our analysis to the BART algorithm only, a variety of sets of environmental variables commonly or less used in the construction of SDMs were explored and tested according to their functional accuracy.
