Jelen tanulmány a Magyarország délkeleti részén fekvő Körös-vidék nyílt sziki tölgyeseinek (Galatello-Quercetum roboris) társulási viszonyait mutatja be 25 cönológiai felvétel alapján. A tölgy-kőris-szil ligetek (Fraxino pannonicae-Ulmetum) fokozatos kiszáradásával előbb zárt tölgyesek (Melico altissimae-Quercetum roboris), majd szikesedési folyamat további előrehaladtával jönnek létre. Az átal...

A gall midge that induces upwardly folded leaf-margin galls on Quercus serrata, Q. mongolica and Q. dentata (Fagaceae) in Japan and South Korea is described as Macrodiplosis selenis sp. n. (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae). M. selenis is distinguished from Palaearctic congeners by a combination of morphological characters. Genetic differences supported the result of morphological comparison and indicate...
