New distributional data on an extremely rare European population of Adapsilia coarctata is given and a suggestion to include this species into the Lithuanian Red Data Book is provided. The East Asian population of the same species was described as a separate species firstly and it was synonymized after recent studies based on females. Nevertheless, the gap in the literature of a comprehensive description of the European male highlighted the need of illustration of male genitalia. Important characters are figured in this report.

In the mid-20 century, Lesser Spotted Eagle (Aquila pomarina) was considered to be one of the most abundant species among the birds of prey in the forests of Lithuania. The estimates of the national population changed from 300–500 to 1,500–1,800 pairs in 1994 and 2005, respectively. Changes in the population estimates did not reflect the actual population trend, but rather the level of investigation of the species in the country. In reality, the current status of the species' population is unknown due to the lack of regular, nationwide monitoring. The aim of this work was to estimate the status of the Lesser Spotted Eagle population in Lithuania. Field studies in 10 sample plots in various regions of Lithuania during the period 2003–2006 showed that the number of breeding pairs declined by 31% on average as compared to the period 1980–1998. We suggest that the population of Lesser Spotted Eagle decreased by 26% across the country during the period 1980–2006. Possible reasons of such decline are discussed ...

Identification of Oxyloma sarsi is confused by the similarity of its shell to those of other succineid species. In this paper, morphological criteria (shape, colour and size of the shells (measurements), the reproduction system and the structure of the radula) for identification of O. sarsi are reconsidered. New data dealing with morphological identification of O. sarsi are presented: body pigmentation, the shape and size of the ‘jaw’, and the parameters of the reproductive system (length of the vagina and oviductus).

The attempt to identify the flyways of Woodpigeon (Columba palumbus) was made by means of genetic analysis. Samples for genetic study were collected in different breeding and wintering habitats (in Portugal, France, Spain, Germany, Sweden, Poland, Hungary, Latvia and Lithuania) of Woodpigeons. Five polymorphic loci controlling synthesis of five different liver proteins (Mc, Tf, PreTf, PostAl, PreAl) and fragments of randomly amplified polymorphic DNA obtained using ten random primers were explored during the study. Significant differences based on frequency of alleles of proteins between populations of Woodpigeons breeding in Portugal and the rest European migratory populations of Woodpigeons were detected. Woodpigeon populations breeding in the region of the Baltic Sea were represented by close clusters in a dendrogram on the contrary to absence of the close clustering among populations of Woodpigeons wintering in Spain and France. It is supposed that genetic variability of Woodpigeon populations is base...

Zooplankton of the Lithuanian part of the Curonian Lagoon was studied at the end of spring and in summer between 1996 and 2002. The highest biomass of zooplankton was recorded at the beginning of July (up to 16.76 g/m3 in 1996). Brachionus calyciflorus was more abundant in 1997; Bosmina coregoni was more abundant in 1998; Asplanchna priodonta and Bosmina longirostris were more abundant in 1997 and 1999; Keratella quadrata and Kellicottia longispina were more abundant in 1999, whereas Chydorus sphaericus was more abundant in 1998 and 2000. Brachionus calyciflorus was found in the zooplankton community only till 1999. At the most study sites, among Cladocera, biomass of Daphnia longispina was highest during the whole study period. The smallest assemblages of zooplankton were found at the mouths of the Atmata and Vytinė Rivers and in the littoral, mostly at the aquatic part between Ventė and Kintai.

The article deals with the comparison of the Lepidoptera of natural and exploited peat bogs of Lithuania. The research was carried out in Cepkeliai raised bog, Balosa and Palios peatlands during 1999. 221 Lepidoptera species was recorded in Cepkeliai raised bog, 203 in Balosa peatland, and 170 in Palios peatland. Balosa and Palios former peat bogs were revealed to show the species composition characteristic of forests and meadows. The transformation of peat bogs was disclosed to lead to the decrease or extinction of tyrphobiontic and tyrphophilous Lepidoptera species. So tyrphoneutral Lepidoptera species predominated in Balosa and Palios peatlands, while tyrphophilous and tyrphobiontic – in Cepkeliai raised bog. The composition of the species showed the Lepidoptera communities of Balosa and Palios peatlands to be unstable and of the secondary origin.

In the summer-autumn period of 1998-1999, the nutrition of turbot was studied in the coastal zone of the Baltic Sea more to the north of Palanga and in the open sea. The intestinal tracts of 735 individuals were investigated. During the studies, it was established that the intensity of nutrition and the species composition of food components depended upon the season, temperature of water, age and sex of turbot. The filling indices of the intestinal tract, which revealed that the fish was feeding most intensively in September, were established. However, the broadest spectrum of food components of this fish was registered during its spawning migration to the coastal zone of the Baltic Sea in June-July (8 fish species and 2 crustacean species). The fishes found in the intestinal tract of turbot were sized, and the ratio of the predator and its food components was established.

In Lithuania, bees wintering in the standard hives with sixteen frames cannot move from one seam to another due to the nest frame construction and the beeways between honeycombs being covered by balks. The influence of pop-holes in honeycombs on wintering bees was studied in winters 1995/96, 1996/97 and 1997/98. Hybrid bees were grouped by morphs. Study results revealed that in cold winters honeycomb pop-holes make better wintering conditions for bees: they consume less food (79.56%). However, no essential difference was observed in comparison with control families as far as the amount of bees died during the winter, the inside moistness of hives and the epizootic state of bees were concerned.
