The fragmented remains of formerly contiguous forests maintain a significant part of the wildlife living in different oak, mixed oak, and gallery forest, and even faunas of connected grassland habitats. To reveal how the parallel Carpathian and Pannonian effects form the local insect fauna, the Noctuoidea assemblages of eight forest patches were assessed and compared, based on the distribution data of 479 species. Three types of assemblages were designated, with similar diversity but different compositions. The most unique and valuable ones can be found in the colline area of Transcarpathia, where the high habitat diversity supported by the topography promotes the coexistence of the species of humid forest fauna and many steppic and southern elements. The protection and planned management of these remained forest patches and their network in international cooperation can maintain a significant part of the fauna of the affected regions.}, keywords = {SPECIES COMPOSITION; Ecological gradient; macrolepidoptera; forest refuge}, year = {2024}, eissn = {2676-8607}, orcid-numbers = {Szanyi, Szabolcs/0000-0002-2642-9839} } @article{MTMT:34567999, title = {Environmentally friendly assessment of ecological quality of watercourses based on banded demoiselle, Calopteryx splendens}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/34567999}, author = {Simon, Edina and Kolozsvári, István and Dévai, György and Illár, Máté and Szalay, Petra Éva and Miskolczi, Margit and Tóthmérész, Béla}, doi = {10.1111/eea.13412}, journal-iso = {ENTOMOL EXP APPL}, journal = {ENTOMOLOGIA EXPERIMENTALIS ET APPLICATA}, unique-id = {34567999}, issn = {0013-8703}, abstract = {Dragonflies and damselflies are excellent bioindicators of the quality of both aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems. In our study, we assessed the usefulness of metric and meristic morphological traits as environmentally friendly and cost‐effective indicators of the integrative ecological quality of watercourses. Our study species of choice was the damselfly banded demoiselle, Calopteryx splendens (Harris) (Odonata: Calopterygidae). Adult C. splendens specimens were collected at three study sites along the trophic gradient of the Tisza River in Hungary and Ukraine. Body and abdomen length, head width, and distances between wing landmarks were assessed as metric traits, and the number of wing cells as meristic traits. The concentration of chlorophyll‐a was used to classify the three study sites into having a low, intermediate, and high trophic condition based on earlier studies. Significant differences were found along the trophic gradient based on the measured metric and meristic traits. Especially, insects from the site with the highest trophic condition had the largest body length, head width, and distances between wing landmarks, as well as the highest number of cells in the fore wings. There were also differences between males and females, but we did not find differences in fluctuating asymmetry (FA), i.e., differences between the left and the right wings. These results indicated that the morphological traits of adult banded demoiselles could be indicative of the environmental quality of a watercourse.}, keywords = {Bioindicators; FLUCTUATING ASYMMETRY; Human disturbance; Damselflies; meristic traits; Calopterygidae; landmarks of the wings}, year = {2024}, eissn = {1570-7458}, orcid-numbers = {Simon, Edina/0000-0002-9525-725X; Kolozsvári, István/0000-0002-4527-7762} } @article{MTMT:34391518, title = {Aquatic phases have a stronger effect on lotic benthic diatoms than human-induced microhabitat variability}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/34391518}, author = {Kiss, Stefánia and Kókai, Zsuzsanna and Bácsi, István and Lukács, Áron and Török-Krasznai, Enikő and Márton, Kamilla and Bácsiné Béres, Viktória}, doi = {10.1007/s10750-023-05405-1}, journal-iso = {HYDROBIOLOGIA}, journal = {HYDROBIOLOGIA}, volume = {851}, unique-id = {34391518}, issn = {0018-8158}, abstract = {Here, we studied the influence of changes of aquatic phases (standing and flowing phases) and human-induced habitat variability (natural and artificial) on the composition and diversity of benthic diatom assemblages in a small lowland stream in the Pannonian Ecoregion. Significant differences in composition were hypothesized between phases and habitats. Lower diversity was hypothesized in the flowing phase and in the artificial habitat. In addition, worser ecological status were assumed in the artificial habitat and in the standing phase than in the others. Our results only partially supported our hypotheses. While there was no significant difference in the composition of the assemblages between the natural and concreted habitats, the alteration in flow conditions resulted in a significant change. No significant differences in diversity were found between aquatic phases. In contrast, biodiversity was higher in the artificial habitat than in the natural one. While the anthropogenic impact, i.e., concreted streambed has no significant influence on diatom-based ecological status, values of diatom indices were significantly higher in the flowing phase.

The removal of macrophytes as direct plant control, however, can be considered as a threat, which can even lead to remarkable microhabitat alterations. Lake Tisza (Hungary) has a high nature conservation value, but it is also an important recreation centre, which is why very delicate water management is necessary including vegetation thinning. Here, we studied the importance of microhabitat heterogeneity (emergent, submerged and floating macrophytes) in maintaining diverse periphytic diatom assemblages. We hypothesized that the substrate type has greater influencing role on the composition and diversity of diatoms than the lake heterogeneity related to basins. We also assumed that floating vegetation hosts the most different and least diverse diatom assemblages. Our results mostly proved these hypotheses. Heterogeneous assemblages were formed on the different substrates (support hypothesis), however, the basin level differences were also detected (reject hypothesis). Our results also highlighted, that macrophyte species with lesser morphological complexity hosted the least diverse periphytic assemblages (support hypothesis). However, many unique and red list taxa were found on floating plants (reject hypothesis). These findings emphasize the key role of microhabitat complexity in maintaining diverse and healthy functioning of microbial assemblages in a multi-purpose reservoir.}, year = {2024}, eissn = {1573-5117}, pages = {959-972}, orcid-numbers = {Kókai, Zsuzsanna/0000-0003-0315-9343} } @article{MTMT:34590636, title = {Polybrominated diphenyl ethers' exposure causes changes in the physiology of zebra mussel, Dreissena polymorpha (Pallas, 1771)}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/34590636}, author = {Yancheva, Vesela and Velcheva, Iliana and Georgieva, Elenka and Nyeste, Krisztián József and Antal, László and Todorova, Borislava and Stoyanova, Stela}, journal-iso = {ECOLOGIA BALKANICA}, journal = {ECOLOGIA BALKANICA}, volume = {15}, unique-id = {34590636}, issn = {1314-0213}, abstract = {Тhe present laboratory study (96 hours and 30 days) aimed to provide for the first time the possible adverse effects of different concentrations of PBDEs congers (PBDE 28, PBDE 47, PBDE 99, PBDE 100, PBDE 153, PBDE 154) based on Water Framework Directive 2000/60/EC (WFD) in zebra mussel (Dreissena polymorpha Pallas, 1771).
