Recent occurrence of moss Buxbaumia viridis (Bryophyta, Buxbaumiaceae) in the Kłodzko region (Central and Eastern Sudetes, SW Poland) A rare epixylous moss, Buxbaumia viridis (Moug. ex Lam. & DC.) Brid. ex Moug. & Nestl., was searched at historical localities in the Kłodzko region, especially in Bialskie and Bystrzyckie Mts. The species was rediscovered at two localities in the upper part of the valley of Jedlnik stream on the east slope of Iwinka Mt. in Puszcza Śnieżnej Białki Nature Reserve. This paper presents data on autecology of B. viridis at one of the rediscovered localities as well as shows its current distribution in the Kłodzko region.

A finding of the lymnaeid species Ladislavella occulta (Jackiewicz, 1959) [Mollusca: Gastropoda: Lymnaeidae] in Hungary is reported, which is the first record of this snail in the country. The shells of L. occulta were found in 1989 in the marsh area of the Bátorliget Nature Reserve. The current distribution of this species in Eastern and Central Europe is reviewed. It is hypothesized that L. occulta represents a relic species, whose origin may be traced back to the Pleistocene

<em>Hymenochaete cruenta</em> is a saprotrophic fungus, grown mainly on the bark of dead branches and trunks of <em>Abies</em> trees and thus the distribution of this fungus in Poland and other European countries is closely connected with natural range of silver fir. Despite its wide range, <em>H. cruenta</em> is considered as rare in the whole area of its occurrence. In this paper, we present a new locality of <em>H. cruenta</em>, discovered in May and September 2016 in the Olbina nature reserve (southern Wielkopolska Lowland, Kalisz Forest District). Ecological notes and macro- and microscopic feature of basidiocarps of this fungus are presented. Additionally, the current distribution of <em>H. cruenta</em> in Poland comprising 78 localities is provided. The rank of <em>H. cruenta</em> among threatened species categories in different European countries is discussed. It seems that the species is rare and threatened in Poland, and it should be still classified as “vulnerable” on the red list of macrofungi. The significance of <em>H. cruenta</em> for diversity of mycobiota and the necessity of further research on the dynamic of occurrence of <em>H. cruenta</em> inside and outside of the natural range of <em>A. alba</em> is underlined.

In the paper the results of two years mycological studies carried out in the "Łężczok" reserve are presented. Due to specific habitat diversity an interesting distribution model of some fungal taxa was observed. The data on each taxon include: abundance, type of substrate, type of habitats and information on fruit-bodies occurrence.

AbstractIn 1990 the population of the red-necked ostrich Struthio camelus camelus in the Aïr and Ténéré National Nature Reserve, Niger, was estimated at c. 1600 individuals. During a 14-day survey carried out in the protected area in October and November 2000 no evidence of recent occurrence of ostriches was found, and it appears that the population size has dramatically declined in its favoured habitat. The species seems to have been severely persecuted during the civil war of 1991–1997. Although a small population had remained in the protected area after the conflict, the occurrence of further poaching suggests that remaining individuals are threatened with extirpation.

A total number of 103 Myxomycetes taxa is known of the "Przełomy pod Księżem" nature reserve. In 2002, 89 taxa were recorded in the reserve. The following families prevail: <i>Physaraceae</i> - 24.4 %, <i>Arcyriaceae, Didymiaceae</i> and <i>Stemonitidaceae</i> - 15.8 % each, <i>Trichiaceae</i> - 12.2 %. Dominant genera are: <i>Physarum</i> - 14 species, <i>Arcyria</i> - 9, <i>Trichia</i> - 8, <i>Cribraria</i> and <i>Diderma</i> - 7 each. Three species were recorded for the first time in Poland: <i>Arcyria minuta, Cribraria persooni</i> and <i>Symphytocarpus flaccidus</i>. The occurrence of <i>Didymium serpula</i> and <i>Lepidoderma tigrinum</i> in Lower Silesia was confirmed after 100 years.

Decaying Wood

Results confirm domination of the occurrence of slime moulds on decaying wood of <i>Fagus</i> (33 taxa), as well as on <i>Tilia</i> (31). The list of species found on wood of <i>Acer pseudoplatanus</i> was extended up to 18. In such a specific microhabitat as litter 33 taxa were found, and among them abundant occurrence of <i>Diachea leucopodia</i> and <i>Diderma testaceum</i> was conspicuous. Dependence of the occurrence of myxomycetes on climatic conditions is manifeted by various periods of "fructification" of particular species. August and September were the most favourable months (49 taxa each) while July was the worst one (30 taxa). Slime moulds inhabiting litter had their maximum from June to August.

Eurema nilgiriensis Yata, 1990, the Nilgiri grass yellow, was described from Nilgiris in southern India. There are not many published records of this species since its original description, and it was presumed to be a high-elevation endemic species restricted to its type locality. Based on the external morphology (wing patterns) as well as the male genitalia, the first confirmed records of the species from Agasthyamalais and Kodagu in the southern Western Ghats, is provided here. This report is a significant range extension for the species outside the Nilgiris, its type locality. Ecological data pertaining to this species as well as the field identification key to all known Eurema of Western Ghats are also presented.
