In the pond Strašík by Libouň (Czech Republic, WGS 84: 49°37'50"N, 14°49'30"E) 14 species of water molluscs were documented by the research executed on 8 June 2001: Radix peregra, Lymnaea stagnalis, Anisus vortex, Bathyomphalus contortus, Gyraulus albus, Gyraulus crista, Hippeutis complanatus, Musculium lacustre, Pisidium casertanum, Pisidium milium, Pisidium nitidum, Pisidium obtusale, Pisidium personatum, Pisidium subtruncatum. The basic characteristics of the community were determined: quantitative composition and dominance. The index of the concentrated dominance modified according to Simpson (c = 0,33) was counted and compared with available data. The pond fauna was compared to the fauna of other examined ponds in Podblanicko. The total of 12 ponds were examined in this region or its closest surroundings so far and 21 species of water molluscs were found in them. The pond Strašík, analysed in this study, is richest in species variety, as it has 14 species, the least occupied are the ponds Splav by Bystřice (2 species) and the first pond above the pond Utopenec by Vlašim (3 species). In the case of these ponds the result is probably due to the fact that they are relatively little known. The species Anisus vortex, Lymnaea stagnalis and Gyraulus albus have the highest frequency of occurrence in the ponds examined so far in Podblanicko, the least frequent are the species Bithynia tentaculata, Acroloxus lacustris and Pisidium personatum. The similarity of the species composition of the ponds fauna was evaluated according to the Jaccard’s index. The pond most similar to the Strašík pond analyzed in this study is from the point of view of the species presence the pond Utopenec on the stream Orlina (8 and 12), which is situated nearby.

Aquatic malacofauna of the Hrubý Jeseník Mountains, the Rychlebské hory Mountains, the Zlatohorská vrchovina Highlands and the Žulovská pahorkatina Highlands (Northern Moravia, Czech Republic) was investigated in 2000, 2001 and 2003. Altogether 26 species (17 gastropods, 9 bivalves) were found at 56 localities. Species Galba truncatula, Radix peregra s.str., Ancylus fluviatilis and P. casertanum, which often inhabit springs and smaller brooks, belong to the most common molluscs in this territory. Ponds and different water bodies originated by mining enrich aquatic malacofauna of this area by e.g., Lymnaea stagnalis, Gyraulus albus, G. crista, Hippeutis complanatus, Anodonta anatina or Musculium lacustre. The finding of Ferrissia clessiniana is the first record of this non-native mollusc in the territory of Northern Moravia. Water bodies in the Vidnavské mokřiny Wetlands Nature Reserve on the Czech-Poland frontier are inhabited by molluscan community with many species living in lowlands and this community is different in comparison with molluscan communities of the other investigated localities.

Molluscan Fauna

This paper presents results of a malacological survey of four small tributaries of the brook Javorka near Lázně Bělohrad in East Bohemia (Czech Republic). Only 15 species of aquatic molluscs (7 gastropods, 8 bivalves) were found at 31 sites during research realised in 2010, 2011 and 2012. Molluscan assemblages of all tributaries were similar and consisted of common and widespread molluscs as Galba truncatula, Radix peregra, Anodonta anatina, Pisidium subtruncatum or P. casertanum. The occurrence of endangered river pea mussel (Pisidium amnicum) was confirmed at three tributaries but only at lower parts near its inflows to the brook Javorka. The research was focused on the endangered thick-shelled river mussel (Unio crassus), and the occurrence of numerous population was confirmed at the brook Lukavecký potok. In the brook Chotečský potok a small population of this bivalve was found. Only a few specimens were found at remaining two tributaries.

Our study aimed to examine the current state of trematodes diversity in Kyiv reservoir. The molluscs under analysis belong to the species living for more than two years. The presence of trematode invasion in molluscs indicates the permanent or periodic presence of infected vertebrate hosts in area. Low mobility of the molluscs contributes to specification of the specific reservoir section visited by the definitive hosts. The species composition and quantitative indicators of invasion of the larval stages (cercariae) of trematodes (Digenea) in six species of Gastropoda in the Dnieper area of the upper site of Kyiv reservoir were studied. In total up to 490 specimens of Gastropoda belonging to subclasses Pulmonata (Lymnaea stagnalis Linnaeus, 1758, Planorbarius corneus Linnaeus, 1758, Stagnicola palustris Muller, 1774) and Prosobranchia (Fagotia acicularis Férussac, 1823, Viviparus viviparus Linnaeus, 1758, Bithynia tentaculata Linnaeus, 1758) were examined. The largest number of trematodes species was found in molluscs L. stagnalis (Lymnaeidae) and B. tentaculata (Bithyniidae) which amounted to seven and three species accordingly. The highest abundance, 150 and upper per mollusc specimen, were Diplostomum spathaceum (Rudolphi, 1819) and Tylodelphys conifer (Mehlis, 1846). Three species of trematodes were recorded in B. tentaculata − Cercaria lophocerca Filippi, 1857, Pleurogenoides medians (Olsson, 1876), Palaeorchis incognitus Szidat, 1943 with an average abundance upper 280 and prevalence 8−17%. Basically, the definitive hosts of the detected species of trematodes are fish, amphibians and waterfowl. Detected cercariae of trematodes D. spathaceum, Sanguinicola intermedia Ejsmont, 1925, Metagonimus yokogawai (Katsurada, 1912), Echinostoma revolutum (Fröhlich, 1802), Echinoparyphium recurvatum (Linstow, 1873) may cause diseases and sometimes death of fish and waterfowl. Some species may be used in medicine.

The focus of this paper is the characteristics of bioclimatological conditions of one popular touristic region in Czech Republic. Biometeorological conditions of the region were described from the point of view of energy exchange between human body and atmospheric environment. Influences of meteorological agents on human organisms are presented by using two indices based on MENEX model. Indices illustrate the physiological strain and subjective thermal feeling of a person exposed to thermal environment. Obtained values of indices were compared to synoptical weather types. Comparisons were provided for the most uncomfortable conditions. Groups of synoptical weather types that occur when biometeorological conditions are very uncomfortable were found.

<p>Cladocera species composition was analyzed in surface sediments of 29 lakes in Central America (Guatemala, El Salvador and Honduras). The material studied was collected with an Ekman grab in autumn 2013 from lakes located in lowland, highland and mountain regions. The study revealed high variability in qualitative and quantitative composition of subfossil Cladocera. A total of 31 Cladocera species (5 planktonic and 26 littoral) were identified, as well as 4 morphotypes that could not be identified (NRR<em> </em>1-4). Planktonic Bosminidae<em> </em>and<em> </em>Daphniidae were the most abundant families. Daphniidae were restricted to water bodies in mountain regions, whereas Bosminidae were widely distributed in lakes with different abiotic conditions. Moreover, Bosminidae species also occurred in highly mineralized waters (&gt; 900 µS cm<sup>-1</sup>). The great majority of the identified Cladocera species belonged to the littoral family Chydoridae. <em>Chydorus </em>cf.<em> sphaericus</em> was the most common species (found in 20 lakes), which probably reflects its tolerance to a wide spectrum of habitat conditions. Cluster analysis discriminated 6 groups of Cladocera species with a high correlation level within groups (≥0.8), which showed different types of correlation with lake characteristics and environmental variables. Canonical correspondence analysis (CCA) showed that altitude and secondly water electrical conductivity were the most important drivers of Cladocera species composition in the region studied. Furthermore, CCA analysis indicated lowland lakes with low water transparency were also characterized by peculiar species assemblages. <strong></strong></p>

The molluscs of a previously unexplored site the “Ženklavský les” forest in North Moravia (Czech Republic) were investigated in 2002. Altogether 47 snail species were recorded (46 terrestrial and 1 aquatic). The molluscan fauna was dominated by woodland species including sensitive and endangered ones (e.g., Platyla polita, Sphyradium doliolum, Ruthenica filograna, Vitrea subrimata, and Daudebardia brevipes). The species Vertigo pusilla, and Vestia ranojevici moravica were encountered in the Štramberk environs for the first time and are of regional importance.

From bryological point of view Zeravshan mountain range remains one of the least studied region. Identification of species composition of true mosses and their ecological-biological peculiarities were not earlier aimed for this region. In the territory of Agalyk basin Karatepa mountains can be divided into four types of substrates where moss species occur: soil, bark of living trees, decayed wood, stones. Characteristics of substrate groups become complicated due to wide range of ecological valency of moss species. Most species select not only one, but several substrates for their settling. During the research period in the soils of Agaliksay basin 20 species were recorded belonging to 13 genera and 10 family. On decayed wood 9 species were recorded belonging to 7 genera and 5 family. On the bark of living trees 15 moss species were recorded belonging to 8 genera and 6 family. Epilyte bryophytes occurred on rocky substrates. On rocky substrates of Agaliksay basin 34 moss species were recorded from 16 genera and 13 family. On the basis of results obtained during the study of substrate groups of mosses in Agaliksay basin, we have conducted comparative analyses of studied substrate groups with the purpose of determining their characteristic features.
