Cyclic abundance fluctuations in a completely isolated population of Euphydryas maturna

نویسندگان

چکیده

A highly isolated and the last autochthonous Czech Republic population of endangered Euphydryas maturna (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae) is monitored since 2001 by larval nests counts. The 20 years` time series displays remarkable abundance fluctuations with peak-to-peak period 11 years, peak numbers >150 bust <15 (arithmetic harmonic means: 92.6 36.3). Establishment more favourable management site probably heightened prolonged boom phase but did not alter overall pattern. We attribute cycling to pressures natural enemies. Climatically unfavourable years appear deepening phase. Species displaying such cannot be conserved within a single site, which being addressed ex-situ breeding stock recent reestablishment two additional populations, aim achieve asynchronous dynamics local populations eventually stabilise regional metapopulation.

BACKGROUND The scarce fritillary Euphydryas (Hypodryas) maturna (L.) is included in the Habitats Directive's Annexes II and IV(a). Therefore, it is crucially important to be able to define the habitat and breeding places of E.maturna in a correct and unbiased way. NEW INFORMATION Data on a previously unknown pre-diapause main host plant, the small cow-wheat (Melampyrumsylvaticum L.), of Euphy...

Hearing Loss (HL) represents high genetic heterogeneity with an incidence of almost 1 out of 500 newborns in most populations. Approximately half of the cases have a genetic basis that most of them are autosomal recessive non-syndromic (ARNSHL) with DFNB1-related defect in many worldwide populations. Given the heterogeneity of the trait together with the unique infrastructure of Iranian populat...

Fluctuations of Sampling in a Mendelian Population.

In experimental crosses with pedigreed cultures, the observed Mendelian ratios are supposed to be due to the chance combinations of 2” kinds of gametes (n = number of allelomorphic pairs) occurring in equal numbers. The total or aggregate results may show larger or smaller deviations from the calculated ratios, but these deviations frequently lie within reasonable limits of error on the hypothe...
