PREGUNTA ESCRITA E-1166/07 de Elly de Groen-Kouwenhoven (Verts/ALE) y David Hammerstein Mintz (Verts/ALE) a la Comisión Asunto:Exclusión de Palakaria de la lista Natura 2000 El 15 de febrero de 2007, el Gobierno de Bulgaria excluyó de la lista Natura 2000 muchas de las zonas silvestres más famosas del país. Una de ellas es la de Palakaria. Está situada en el sur de Bulgaria, entre los montes de Vitosha y Rila. Abarca la parte occidental de la caldera de Samokov-Palakaria y el valle del río Palakaria. Su límite occidental se extiende por las laderas de los montes de Vitosha y Verila en el municipio de Yarlovo y por el este llega al río Iskar y a la villa de Samokov. Palakaria da cobijo a 104 especies de aves reproductoras, 4 de las cuales constan en el Libro Rojo de Datos sobre Bulgaria (1985). De las aves que pueden encontrarse en este territorio, son 37 las especies con un estado de conservación desfavorable (catalogadas como Species of European Conservation Concern, o SPEC) (BirdLife International, 2004), de las cuales 1 pertenece a la categoría SPEC 1 por estar amenazada en todo el mundo, 15 a SPEC 2 y 21 a SPEC 3, por ser especies amenazadas en Europa. La zona acoge hábitats apropiados para 15 especies que necesitan medidas de conservación especiales, incluidas en el anexo 2 de la Ley de biodiversidad y también en el anexo I de la Directiva sobre aves. La zona presenta la población reproductora más densa de cigüeña blanca (Ciconia ciconia) de Bulgaria. Constituye uno de los lugares más importantes del país para esta especie, así como para el guión de codornices (Crex crex) y la codorniz común (Coturnix coturnix), que cuentan con considerables poblaciones en esta zona. La cigüeña blanca anida en los asentamientos situados en la periferia del territorio y utiliza los humedales para buscar alimento. El área posee notables poblaciones de escribano hortelano (Emberiza hortulana), curruca gavilana (Sylvia nisoria), pito cano (Picus canus) y alcaudón dorsirrojo (Lanius collurio). En vista de ello, ¿cómo garantizará la Comisión el cumplimiento de las obligaciones de Bulgaria en relación con la Directiva 92/43/CEE1 y, en particular, iniciará la Comisión un procedimiento de infracción contra Bulgaria lo antes posible? 1 DO L 206 de 22.7.1992, p. 7. 655479.ES PE 386.250.

River Names As a Testament of Cultural Heritage
ONOMÀSTICA 5 (2019): 65–89 | RECEPCIÓ 28.10.2019 | ACCEPTACIÓ 28.11.2019 River names as a testament of cultural heritage (on hydronyms in the Iskar river basin) Anna Choleva-Dimitrova Department of Onomastics Institute for Bulgarian Language, Bulgarian Academy of Sciences [email protected] Abstract: River names are some of the oldest -onyms on record. The article examines 170 river names from the basin of the Iskar river – the largest tributary of the Danube in Bulgaria. The origin and significance of river names emerge through the application of traditional onomastic methods – onomastic (etymological) analysis and onomastic reconstruction. Comparative onomastic data from adjacent and more distant regions in Bulgaria and the Balkans are also drawn on. Conclusions about the relative antiquity of the hydronyms are drawn. Key words: river name, hydronym, Iskar river, Danube river, tributary of a river Els noms dels rius com a llegat del patrimoni cultural (Sobre hidrònims a la conca del riu Iskar) Resum: Els noms dels rius, o topònims fluvials, són uns dels noms més antics de què es té notícia. L’article examina 170 noms de rius de la conca del riu Iskar —el major afluent del Danubi a Bulgària. Tractem d’aclarir l’origen i la significació d’aquests noms a partir de l’aplicació de mètodes onomàstics tradicionals: anàlisi etimològica i reconstrucció onomàstica. També es recullen dades onomàstiques comparatives de regions de Bulgària i dels Balcans, més properes i més llunyanes. Proposem algunes conclusions sobre l’antiguitat relativa dels hidrònims. Paraules clau: nom de riu, hidrònim, riu Iskar, riu Danubi, afluent d’un riu 1 Introduction Hydronymy is one of the most important branches of onomastics.

On the Flood Forecasting at the Bulgarian Part Of
BALWOIS 2004 Ohrid, FY Republic of Macedonia, 25-29 May 2004 Waters In The Mountain Vitosha – Description, Quality, Protection Vesela Rajnova, Stefka Blaskova, Julia Kirova, Plamen Ninov National Institute of Meteorology and Hydrology Sofia, Bulgaria Abstract The Vitosha Mountain co-exists as a comparatively high mountain (maximum altitude – 2290 m) and at the same time as a park near the more then one million city of Sofia – capital of Bulgaria. The advance of the urbanizing processes upper on the slopes of the mountain requires new investigations revealing the actual condition of the waters and imposing plans for new protection activities concerning waters’ conservation. In the present material a detailed description of the existing surface and ground waters in the mountain is done. On the base of expeditions carried out the last years is prepared an assessment of the water quality on the main hydrochemical parameters reflecting the actual condition and analyzing the influence of the process of urbanization. Some recommendations concerning water protection are presented with a view to running processes of mountain resources exploitation. Key words: water quality, protection, mountain ecology Vitosha and its surface and ground waters The issue of the waters in the Mountain Vitosha, their quality and protection was and will be a priority for the citizens of the city. The advance of the urbanizing processes upper on the slopes of the mountain requires new investigations revealing the actual condition of the waters and imposing plans for new protection activities concerning waters conservation. From this point of view the surface and ground water pollution is an actual problem not enough clarified.

(DIPTERA) FAUNA from the UPPER ISKAR RIVER CATCHMENT (BULGARIA) – SPATIAL DISTRIBUTION and ECOLOGICAL NOTES Dimitriy Dashinov
Supplement 1 Ecological Engineering and Environment Protection, IX, 2017, p. 16-21 NEW DATA ON THE CHIRONOMIDAE (DIPTERA) FAUNA FROM THE UPPER ISKAR RIVER CATCHMENT (BULGARIA) – SPATIAL DISTRIBUTION AND ECOLOGICAL NOTES Dimitriy Dashinov Abstract: The Chironomid composition was studied in 23 sites from 12 rivers along the upper part of the Iskar River catchment (Danube basin). Samples were gathered using Surber sampler in the summer period of 2015-2016. A total of 54 taxa (from 39 genera and 5 subfamilies) were identified from which 33 taxa were new for the upper Iskar River catchment. Two species were new for Bulgaria: Potthastia montium (Edwards, 1929) and Symbiocladius rhithrogenae (Zavrel, 1924). Two taxa belonged to genera not reported for the Bulgarian fauna – Cryptotendipes sp. and Sympotthastia sp. For most of the rivers the chiro abundance was relatively low with a mean of 60 ind.m-2, which is about 12% of the marozoobenthos community. Key words: Chironomidae, Iskar, Potthastia montium, Symbiocladius rhithrogenae, new records INTRODUCTION The period of sampling was in July - August 2015 and 2016. An overall macrozoobenthos sample On the Chironomidae fauna there is overall data was taken from each site using Surber sampler, for the whole Iskar River [5] [11] as well as from sections according to the adapted for Bulgaria version of the upstream and downstream of Sofia [17]. Along the multi-habitat sampling method [3]. The collected upper Iskar catchment studies of the Chironomidae samples were preserved in 70% alcohol and stored family are few. There is more data on the glacial lakes in the laboratory for further analysis.

Verantwortliche Institutionen 1 Geschichte des Schutzgebiets Vitosha ist das erste als Park ausgewiesene Schutzgebiet in Bulgarien und auf der Balkanhalbinsel. Schon zu Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts entwickelt sich in Bulgarien die Idee, wertvolle Naturlandschaften als Schutzgebiete auszuweisen. Als wichtiger Schritt in diese Richtung gilt die Gründung der Gesellschaft zum Schutz der einheimischen Natur im Jahre 1928. Aufgrund eines Vorschlages dieser Gesellschaft ernennt das Ministerium für Landwirtschaft und staatliches Eigentum im Jahre 1931 eine Kommission, die eine Liste von Pflanzenarten und Schutzgebieten erarbeiten soll. Ursprünglich ist ein Volkspark im Rila-Gebirge geplant. Zwei Jahre später bewertet die Kommission alle existierenden Empfehlungen erneut und reicht beim Permanenten Waldrat einen Vorschlag zur Ausweisung des Volksparks Vitosha und der Reservate Parangalitza im Rila- und Gorna Elenitza-Silkosiya im Strandzha-Gebirge ein. Der Rat bewilligt die Ausweisung des Volksparks in den hohen Lagen des Vitosha- Gebirges, die sich in staatlichem Besitz befinden. Argumente dafür sind die Nähe zur Hauptstadt, die damit verbundene Anzahl der Besucher und die unumstrittene Bedeutung für die Wissenschaft. Der Waldrat beauftragt die Kommission, die Grenzen des Parks und der eingeschlossenen Reservate zu bestimmen, sowie einen Plan für die Parkentwicklung zu erarbeiten. Auf Beschluss des Ministeriums für Landwirtschaft und staatliches Eigentum vom Jahre 1934 werden der Nationalpark Vitosha und die inbegriffenen Reservate mit einer Gesamtfläche von 6 410 ha ausgewiesen.

Иван Рилски“, ул. „Проф. Боян Каменов“ №1, София 1700 Abstract. Coal of varying age (Upper Carboniferous to Pliocene) and coalification rank (lignite to anthracite) from nineteen coal- bearing basins and deposits, belonging to 8 coal-bearing provinces from Bulgaria, were examined for the occurrence and distribution of Fe. For the majority of the coals, the average Fe concentrations vary from 1.1 to 10.2 wt% and are higher than the World’s average. An excep- tion exists only for Karlovo and Dobrudzha Basins, where slight depletion of Fe (<1 wt%) was established. On contrary, carbonaceous shales from the majority of the basins show Fe depletion in comparison to the Clarke values for clays. Based on the negative correlations with the ash yields, organic affinity of the element can be suggested for most of the studied coals. An exception exists for the Burgas Basin, for which predominantly inorganic affinity of the element can be suggested, whereas for Stanyantsi, Samokov, Bobov Dol, Dobrudzha and Svoge Basins mixed organic/inorganic affinity of Fe can be presumed.

Title of the Paper: Example Paper for Business Systems Research Journal
Proceedings ● ISEM7 ● October, 4-7, 2017 Sutomore, Montenegro Distribution patterns and conservation status of the species from genus Alburnoides (Pisces, Cyprinidae) in Bulgaria Tihomir Stefanov National Museum of Natural History, Bulgarian Academy of Sciences, 1 Tsar Osvoboditel Blvd., 1000 Sofia. e-mail: [email protected] Georgi Popgeorgiev National Museum of Natural History, Bulgarian Academy of Sciences, 1 Tsar Osvoboditel Blvd., 1000 Sofia. e-mail: [email protected] Abstract Analysis of the distribution of all three species from genus Alburnoides in Bulgaria is made. The model is generated on the basis of data from real locations, calculated in ArcGIS 10.2. environment and visualized on MGRS UTM 10 km grid maps. Based on the data for the distribution of each species particular conservation implications are proposed. Keywords: Spurlins, Alburnoides, distribution, conservation, Bulgaria. Introduction The spurlins from genus Alburnoides Jeitteles, 1861 are small fish, which inhabit mainly the middle courses of fast flowing rivers, rich in oxygen. They are widespread in temperate Eurasian rivers and some lakes, part of the basins of North, Black and Sea of Azov as well as in Caspian Sea and middle course of Volga River, south to Kura drainage. They occur also in Amu Darya drainage, part of Aral Sea basin, as well as in the basins of Euphrates and Tigris. In the Mediterranean the distribution covers Rhone and many smaller rivers from France eastward to Genova (Italy). Spurlins could be found also in Drin River, Skadar, Prespa and Ohrid Lakes and some other rivers in Albania, as well as rivers in Eastern part of Balkan Peninsula and Western Anatol, flowing into Aegean and Marmara Seas (Berg, 1949; Bogutskaya & Naseka, 2004; Kottelat & Freyhof, 2007; Roudbar et al., 2016).
