Instructions for Field Inventory of Fauna
Instructions for Field Inventory of Fauna Listed under Habitats Directive 92/43/EEC Annexes Introduction Aim of the following instructions is to provide guidance for field inventory of animal species in Montenegro listed under the annexes of the Habitats Directive 92/43/EEC, especially those of Annex II, which are subject of designation of the Special Areas of Conservation (SACs) ref. Article 3 of the Directive. The list of target animal species for the field inventory in Montenegro is included in Appendix 1 and is based on the national reference list of Habitats Directive species for Montenegro prepared in the framework of the project „Serbia, Montenegro and Natura 2000: Strengthening the Capacity of Governments and Civil Sector to Adapt to EU Nature Protection Acquis“. The instructions do not provide guidance on the field techniques to be used to determine/record presence of the particular species or taxonomical groups. Selection of appropriate field methods as well as acquisition of necessary permits for field research (eg. when the research is carried out in protected areas) from national or other authorities are solely within the remit of the researcher. Definition of mapping object Aim of the field inventory of fauna is to deliver reliable and up-to-date information about the distribution of target species in Montenegro, status of their population and habitats, through mapping of their localities of occurrence. As a species locality, a distinguishable part of the landscape can be considered, usually delimited by natural borders such as a meadow, a forest fragment or section, a river section, a river valley etc. -

Combining Multiple Statistical Methods to Evaluate the Performance of Process-Based Vegetation Models Across Three Forest Stands
Cent. Eur. For.

In this contribution the performance of two global dynamic vegetation models, i.e. CARAIB and ISBACC, and one stand-scale forest model, i.e. 4C, was compared to long-term observed net ecosystem carbon exchange (NEE) time series from eddy covariance monitoring stations at three old-grown European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) forest stands. Residual analysis, wavelet analysis and singular spectrum analysis were used beside conventional scalar statistical measures to assess model performance with the aim of defining future targets for model improvement. We found that the most important errors for all three models occurred at the edges of the observed NEE distribution and the model errors were correlated with environmental variables on a daily scale. -

Ekológia (Bratislava), Vol. 35, No. 4, p. 340–349, 2016. Communities of epigeic beetles were studied using pitfall trapping on 10 plots with the different stage of decline and clear-cut plots without coarse woody debris. Species richness (number of all species, S), total species diversity as the Shannon–Wiener’s index (H) and equitability (e) were calcu- lated in the DBreleve. The Ward’s method of hierarchical agglomerative classification with Euclidean distance was used for the differentiation of the communities on the plots. Species data for this analyse were represented by logarithm-transformed activities [log(x+1)]. The single-factor analysis of vari- ance (ANOVA) was used for statistical testing of differences in structural parameters (e.g. species richness and diversity) amongst distinguished groups of the plots. The species diversity and activity differs on glades without trees and coarse woody debris. -

Petar Orehovec 27, 48 267 Orehovec, Croatia, E-mail: [email protected] 1* Corresponding author: Lucija ŠERIć JELASKA E-mail: [email protected] Accepted: October 28th 2010 The aim of this study was to analyse the ground beetle assemblage (Coleoptera: Carabidae) in the forest habitats of the Učka Nature Park, their zoogeographical distribution and status in the Croatian Red list of ground beetles. Pitfall traps were placed in eleven plots in seven forest communities in Mt Učka and exposed during 2008. Thirty-five carabid species were recorded, eight of which are endemic. The oogeographic positions of species were in accordance with the geographical location of Mt Učka, which is located on the border line of two zoogeographical regions, the Mediterranean and the Euro-Sibirean-North American region with Alpine elements. One quarter of the recorded species are present in the Croatian Red list of ground beetles. One very important finding was that ofCarabus variolosus nodulosus Creutzer 1799 which is given in the Croatian Red list with the status of vulnerable. It is also listed in Appendix II and IV of the Convention on the conservation of European wildlife and natural habitats (Council Directive 92/43/EEC). -

In this study, we used radio telemetry to examine whether habitat type (different habitat patches in steppe mosaic), sex, time of day, temperature and air pressure affect the activity of this species. During the reproductive period of C. hungaricus in Octo- ber 2017, we equipped ten individuals, five males, and five females, with small 0.3 g VHF transmitters and tracked them for seven consecutive days. The average speed of tagged individuals was 1.29 m/h for the fastest individual and 0.21 m/h for the slowest one. The shape of trajectories indicated random walk; only in few cases did beetles cover larger distances between two tracking sessions. Habitat type significantly affected beetle move- ment; the average speed was higher in grassy patches and common juniper stands, while it decreased in mosses and litter under shrubs. Although there was no effect of sex, time of day, or air pressure on beetles’ activity, the temperature had a positive effect on move- ment. -

Ekológia (Bratislava), Vol. 25, Supplement 3/2006, p. 41–52. The effect of tourism and various landscape management on the beetle communities were investigated using pitfall trapping in the montane area of the Central Europe (Šumava National Park and Landscape Protected Area). The pitfall traps were arranged on plots on the left and right side of the Lipno reservoir with the different anthropogenic pressure – the higher man pressure was traditionally on the left side of the Lipno reservoir. Beetle communities of the Norway spruce forest, ski trail, golf course, cultural meadow, parking plot, dam shore and the wetland were studied. The number of species discovered by pitfall trapping was lowest on the plots strongly affected by human activities (golf course and parking place). The skiing had no negative effect on epigeic beetles. Some species typical for open biotopes migrated to the ski trail and the forest species present at the edge of the forest and ski slope. -

Bionomics and Distribution of the Stag Beetle, Lucanus Cervus (L.) Across Europe*
Insect Conservation and Diversity (2011) 4, 23–38 Bionomics and distribution of the stag beetle, Lucanus cervus (L.) across Europe* DEBORAH J. HARVEY,1 ALAN C. GANGE,1 COLIN J. HAWES1 and 2 MARKUS RINK 1School of Biological Sciences, Royal Holloway, University of London, Egham, Surrey, UK and 2Bad Bertricher Str. 4, 56859 Alf, Germany Abstract. 1. The European stag beetle, Lucanus cervus, is thought to be widely dis- tributed across its range, but a detailed description of its occurrence is lacking. 2. Researchers in 41 countries were contacted and information sought on various life history characteristics of the insect. Data on adult body size were collected from seven countries. 3. Habitat associations differ between the United Kingdom and mainland Europe. Larvae are most commonly associated with oak, but the duration of the larval stage and the number of instars varies by up to 100% across Europe. 4. Adult size also varies; beetles from Spain, Germany, and the Netherlands are larger than those from Belgium or the UK. In the former countries, populations are composed mainly of large individuals, while in the UK, the majority of individuals are relatively small. Allometric relations between mandible size and total body length differ in Germany compared with the rest of Europe. 5. Distribution maps of the insect, split into records pre- and post-1970, from 24 countries are presented. While these inevitably suffer from recorder bias, they indi- cate that in only two countries, Croatia and Slovakia, does the insect seem to be increasing in range. 6. Our data suggest that the insect may be in decline across Europe, most likely due to habitat loss, and that conservation plans need to be produced that focus on the biology of the insect in the local area.
