AB  - Simple Summary: Rana temporaria is one of the most widespread Palearctic brown frogs, with two
main genetic clades in Europe, geographic spatial pattern of which is insufficiently known. We
analyzed samples from the understudied western and central Balkans to evaluate the haplotype
diversity of widely used 16SrRNA and MT-CYTB mitochondrial gene sequences and to recognize
the contour of a possible contact zone between the main clades. The results revealed a suture
zone between theWestern and Eastern Clades in the central part of the Balkan Peninsula. Overall,
haplotype diversity in the western and central Balkans sample is high. Harboring both main genetic
clades of R. temporaria qualifies the Balkan Peninsula as another important center of species’ genetic
diversity, as well as rich in unique haplotypes.
Abstract: Rana temporaria is one of the most widespread Palearctic brown frogs. We aimed to
clarify distribution pattern of two main genetic clades in the understudied Balkan peninsula by
using 16SrRNA and MT-CYTB sequences, already widely applied in analyses of populations from
other parts of Europe, while focusing on the broad area along the Morava river (central Balkans)
as a known gap in the species distribution. Additionally, we were interested in revealing the
extent of haplotype diversity within the main genetic clades in the Balkans, particularly around
the supposed suture zone. The results revealed a suture zone between the Western and Eastern
Clades in the central part of the Balkan Peninsula. This indicated the existence of a historical
barrier between the Balkan Mountain Belt and geographically close mountains surrounding the
Vlasina Plateau (Rhodope/Serbian–Macedonian Massif). The overall observed haplotype diversity in
populations of R. temporaria from the Balkan Peninsula seems high. Harboring both main genetic
clades of R. temporaria qualifies the Balkan Peninsula as another important center of species’ genetic
diversity, as well as rich in unique haplotypes. This points out the necessity of applying conservation
measures focused on the common European frog populations and habitats in this part of the species’
distribution area.

AB  - The brown trout is a valuable species for recreational fishing and its diet is of great interest. It feeds on 
various aquatic invertebrates, but also consumes terrestrial prey, whose contribution is often unjustly 
underestimated. The importance of terrestrial prey in diets of two trout populations was assessed at two 
sites (April-October) with different quantity of available aquatic prey (Site 1 high, Site 2 low quantity). 
Four indices of importance were used: frequency of occurrence (FO), number of prey items (AN), weight 
(AW), and index of relative importance (IRI). Preference for terrestrial prey was also estimated based on 
the electivity index (EI), where the availability of aquatic and terrestrial prey was expressed as their 
percentage in the drift samples.
Significantly less terrestrial prey was available at Site 1 (0.39% ± 0.57%) in contrast to Site 2 (13.21% ± 
10.38%), terrestrial prey was significantly more abundant in the trout diet than in the drift samples at 
both sites (t test). The EI was positive for terrestrial prey, additionally FO showed that this prey was 
present in 36% ± 16.65% (site 1) and in 87.55% ± 8.94% individuals (site 2), indicating a high preference for 
this type of prey. The importance (IRI) of terrestrial prey was higher than expected at Site 1 (1.39% ± 
1.53%; maximum 4.7% in September) and high at Site 2 (58.6% ± 23.56%; maximum 84.67% in 
September). Terrestrial prey became more present in the drift and more important in the diet toward the 
end of the study period, while the importance of aquatic prey decreased based on all four indices at both 
sites. The correlation between the increasing importance of terrestrial prey (AN, IRI) in the diet and the 
presence of aquatic prey in the drift (%) towards the end of the season was not significant (Pearson). Thus, 
the positive trend in the importance of terrestrial prey may be due to their increasing availability and 
simultaneous decline of large prey in the aquatic community due to the emergence of adults.
Terrestrial prey is generally larger (i.e., yielding more energy) than most aquatic prey and easily captured 
due to its low mobility in the aquatic environment. In the habitat with low availability of aquatic prey, 
terrestrial prey played an important role in brown trout diet. In addition, brown trout also preferred it in 
the habitat rich in aquatic prey. This study shows that terrestrial prey is significant brown trout feeding 
resource regardless of its general availability in the environment.

AB  - Assessment of impact of pollution in the environmental studies requires multi-endpoints approach to properly
link cause and effects of pollution with focus on chemical pollution. In this sense systematic weight-of-evidence
approach (WoE) with multiple lines of evidence (LoEs) is preferable to apply. The WoE approach highlights the
importance to identify strengths and weaknesses of used LoEs. Therefore, in this study we have tested efficacy
of genotoxicological endpoints as one of the LoEs in the in situ assessment of pollution effects in the freshwater
ecosystems using Alburnus alburnus (bleak) as a bioindicator species. Additional LoEs that were used in the
study are: component-based methods for the assessment of SumTU in water based on monitoring data of the
Serbian Environmental Protection Agency (SEPA), effect based methods employing in vitro genotoxicological
analyses of Joint Danube Survey 4 (JDS4) water extracts and field derived species inventories for the
assessment and indication of ecological status/potential based on SEPA and JDS4 data. The study was
conducted within the JDS4 campaign at nine sampling sites at the Tisa, Sava, Velika Morava and Danube rivers
in the Republic of Serbia. In the case of three sampling sites, the results were uniform, meaning that all four
LoEs pointed to pollution pressure. The differences in the LoEs outcomes for other sites indicated the
importance of multiple LoEs approach for proper identification of ecological impact. In the case of current
study we have identified comet and micronucleus assay to be appropriate for the genotoxicological assessment
in the in situ studies due to high sensitivity in discrimination of sites in relation to pollution intensity, while
RAPD analysis to be more suitable for controlled ex situ investigations.

AB  - The aim of the present study was to determine the current status of the fish community structure and
composition in the Ribnica River. The Ribnica River, a tributary of the Kolubara River, is classified as
a Type 3 watercourse according to the current national regulations. A total of 347 fish specimens
were collected and analysed, and seven fish species were identified. Over 60% of the fish community
consists of the species Barbus balcanicus and Alburnoides bipunctatus, and the community has high
diversity and Evenness. The conservation status of the present fish species was also reviewed, and
three identified fish species are protected by national and international regulations. The occurrence of
Sabanejewia balcanica is very interesting. This fish species is strictly protected by national legislation
as well as by the Bern Convention (Annex III) and the Habitats Directive (Annex II). With the
presented study results we would like to point out the importance and conservation of these types of
watercourses. As a result of anthropogenic pressures, potential impacts in the form of habitat
alteration and degradation are expected, which may lead to threats to local fish populations.

AB  - The aim of this study was to identify taxa richness of benthic macroinvertebrates region of the Neretva River, which is under the potential impact of human activities. The "Neretva Science Week" study area is located in eastern Bosnia and Herzegovina and it covers the upper region of the Neretva River, between its confluence with the Krupa River and the city of Konjic. In the summer 2022, aquatic macroinvertebrates were collected from a total of nine sites: seven sites on the Neretva River and two on its tributary Krupa River. Kick and Sweep hand net sampling was performed following the EN 27828:1994 standard. In total, 101 taxa belonging to 13 taxonomic groups were recorded. Based on our results, Diptera and Ephemeroptera were most taxa rich (17 and 18 taxa, respectively) and most abundant taxa (with 27.19% and 34.79% of collected individuals, respectively), followed by Trichoptera (24 taxa; 12.98% of collected individuals) and Plecoptera (6 taxa, 15.95% of collected individuals) At the lower taxonomic level, the most abundant taxa were mayfly Ecdyonurus alpinus Hefti, Tomka & Zurwerra, 1987 and Simuliidae (Diptera) larvae. Overall, our results indicate high benthic macroinvertebrate taxa richness, and domination of insect orders that typically occur in mountain rivers, such as the upper reaches of the Neretva River. In order to preserve the pristine character of the river, as well as its biota, it is essential to maintain the near-natural state.

AB  - During hydrobiological survey of the Danube River in Serbia, exotic diatom Capartogramma crucicula
(Grunow) Ross was recorded for the first time. The species has pantropical distribution. Also, it has
been reported in Europe, in the freshwaters of France, Spain, Portugal and Germany, usually as rare
and exotic. Throughout our perennial research of the Danube River, epilithic diatom samples were
collected, processed, and analyzed using standardized procedures. Nonindigenous diatom C. crucicula
was identified in the sample collected in September 2018 at the locality Radujevac, situated
downstream the dam Iron Gate II. Its morphological features are clearly seen using light microscopy,
with noticeable "x" shaped stauros, thus it could be hardly overlooked or misidentified during previous
investigations. Relative abundance of C. crucicula in the sample was low, about 1%. Presence of diatom
species of tropical origin in European temperate region may be linked with climate change and
warming of inland waters. Further algological research will reveal if C. crucicula will become a common
member of diatom community of the Danube River in Serbia.

AB  - Environmental studies which aim to assess the ecological impact of chemical and other types of pollution should employ a complex weight-of-evidence approach with multiple lines of evidence (LoEs). This study focused on in situ genotoxicological methods such as the comet and micronucleus assays and randomly amplified polymorphic DNA analysis as one of the multiple LoEs (LoE3) on the fish species Alburnus alburnus (bleak) as a bioindicator. The study was carried out within the Joint Danube Survey 4 (JDS4) at nine sites in the Danube River Basin in the Republic of Serbia. Out of nine sampling sites, two were situated at the Tisa, Sava, and Velika Morava rivers, and three sites were at the Danube River. The three additionally employed LoEs were: SumTUwater calculated based on the monitoring data in the database of the Serbian Environmental Protection Agency (SEPA) (LoE1); in vitro analyses of JDS4 water extracts employing genotoxicological methods (LoE2); assessment of the ecological status/potential by SEPA and indication of the ecological status for the sites performed within the JDS4 (LoE4). The analyzed biomarker responses in the bleak were integrated into the unique integrated biomarker response index which was used to rank the sites. The highest pollution pressure was recorded at JDS4 39 and JDS4 36, while the lowest was at JDS4 35. The impact of pollution was confirmed at three sites, JDS4 33, 40, and 41, by all four LoEs. At other sampling sites, a difference was observed regarding the pollution depending on the employed LoEs. This indicates the importance of implementing a comprehensive weight-of-evidence approach to ensure the impact of pollution is not overlooked when using only one LoE as is often the case in environmental studies.

AB  - U ovom radu ispitivan je stepen kontaminacije vode i plavne zone reke Save na primeru ispusta otpadnih voda kod Beogradskog sajma korišćenjem mikrobioloških indikatora fekalnog zagađenja. Kvantifikacija ukupnih koliforma, fekalnih koliforma i fekalnih enterokoka rađena je pomoću Colilert-18 i Enterolert-E sistema. Analiza broja spora klostridija rađena je membranskom filtracijom u skladu sa standardom ISO 14189:2013. Rezultati mikrobioloških analiza ukazuju na visok stepen kontaminacije vode i plavnog područja na ispitivanom lokalitetu, kao i na potencijalni rizik koje zabeleženo fekalno zagađenje može predstavljati po zdravlje osoba koje ispitivano područje koriste za rekreaciju.
AB  - In this paper, the level of contamination of the Sava River water and floodplain was asssessed using microbiological indicators of fecal pollution. Wastewater outlet near the Belgrade Fair was chosen as a case study. Quantification of total coliforms, faecal coliforms and fecal enterococci was performed using the Colilert-18 and Enterolert-E systems. The analysis of the number of clostridian spores was carried out by membrane filtration in accordance with the ISO 14189 standard. The results of microbiological analyzes indicate a high degree of contamination of the water and floodplain area at the investigated location, as well as the potential risk that detected fecal pollution may represent for the health of persons who use the investigated area for recreation.

AB  - Plastic pollution is recognized as ubiquitous and different approaches have been used
to detect and evaluate effects on aquatic biota. Here, we present Asian clam Corbicula
fluminea (Müller, 1774) as a suitable model organism for detecting microplastic
pollution in freshwater ecosystems. The study was conducted on the Danube River and
its tributaries. Following the multi-habitat procedure, specimens were sampled using a
hand net (ap. 25 cm × 25 cm, mesh size 500 μm) sampling. Out of a total of 51 sampling
sites, C. fluminea was collected at 23 sites, whereas 15 sites were on the Danube and
8 sites on its tributaries. From each site 10 specimens were randomly selected. The
shell length, shell width, total weight and body weight were measured. The samples
were digested by alkaline method, using a KOH 10% solution and incubation at 65 ⁰C
for 12 h. Collected particles were photographed and assigned to one of 2 major
microplastic categories: fibers and fragments. Categories were divided in
subcategories based on the coloration of the particles. Particles were counted manually,
photographed and measured by the use of Nikon SMZ 745T Stereomicroscope. All
collected particles were measured in the program ImageJ. Microplastic particles were
detected in all samples of C. fluminea, on average 5.59 ± 3.71 fibrils and 4.37 ± 2.46
fragments per organism; or 40.77 ± 73.75 fibrils and 25.84 ± 33.17 fragments per g
body weight, 1998 in total. Medium-sized microplastic particles were dominant, with
an average length of 0.43 mm ± 0.26 in the Danube and 0.49 mm ± 0.26 in the
tributaries. Among fibers and fragments, blue fibers (81%) and transparent fragments
(42.8%) were dominant. In order to confirm chemical composition of isolated
microliter, 46 particles of the hard plastic from 14 sampling sites were analyzed with
micro- FTIR spectroscopy analysis. Analyzed particles were detected as polyethyleneterephthalate
and cellophane, most commonly.

the country. The knowledge and attitude of children from two primary schools (Pirot and Bosilegrad)
towards this species was tested. Two surveys with the same questionnaire were conducted. The first
one was held at the end of the 6th grade, and the second was conducted a year later. The second
survey has shown moderate increase in children's knowledge. To better protect and conserve rare and
endangered taxa it is necessary to raise awareness of the public, particularly in the areas where these
species are present. Attitudes, values, behaviour, knowledge of citizen and especially young
generations form a good basis for the protection and sustainable development planning in local
community.

AB  - Amphibians are the most endangered of all vertebrates; therefore, maintaining a
long-term monitoring of local populations is important even for the widespread
species. Neglecting the research on common species might result in many silent local
extinctions. The negative effects of environmental changes can be reflected in a
reduction of a population’s size, with a strongest impact on species that reproduce
during early spring (like Bufo bufo – common toad and Rana dalmatina – agile frog),
although other species (Pelophylax esculentus complex – green frogs) could also be
affected. Decrease in size of common toad populations was recorded in parts of Great
Britain, the Czech Republic, Italy and Switzerland, while agile frog populations have
usually been reported as stable. Declines in population size of some green frog
populations were reported in parts of Poland and Turkey.
These three taxa were monitored from 2011 to 2021 in a permanent pond near
village Zuce, at the southern outskirts of Belgrade (Serbia). Population size of the
common toad seems to be declining over the years (Kendall’s Tau = -0.60; Z = -2.57; p
= 0.01). Number of females was constantly low, which raises concern. Fluctuation in
population size was registered for both agile frogs and green frogs, with 2021 being
the best year as most egg clutches and individuals were spotted. Density dependence
effect on population size was confirmed for the agile frog (Kendall’s Tau = -0.56; Z = -
2.09; p = 0.04). Within a year, the activity of green frogs was increasing over the months
until May/June and then it was decreasing until December. The largest number of
individuals was spotted in May. There was a slight inversion in that decline in
September, when maximum and minimum numbers of individuals were higher than in
August. There were no correlations among the species regarding population size
fluctuations.

AB  - The common frog (Rana temporaria Linnaeus, 1758) is one of the most
widespread and abundant amphibians in Europe, except in the southern parts of the
continent, where distribution is apparently fragmented. It has the greatest genetic
variability of all western Palearctic brown frogs and it is extremely variable in
morphology and ecological preferences, also. The Republic of Serbia is a country of
particular interest in terms of amphibian conservation because of the genetically and
morphologically diverse populations of several amphibian species.
We analysed nucleotide variability of mitochondrial DNA sequences of partial
MT-CYTB gene (461 bp) of 27 specimens of R. temporaria species. Samples (eggs and
tail tips of adult individuals) were collected in two periods, 1986-2007 and 2013-2017,
in 14 localities in Serbia. The analyses revealed nine different haplotypes separated
into two main clusters: north-eastern and eastern (localities Bela Crkva, Grza, Bigar,
Đerdap, Stara planina) and central, west, south-western, and south-eastern Serbia
(localities Jagodnja, Lučani, Zlatibor, Goč, Kopaonik, Prokletije, Šar planina, Oštrozub,
and Vlasina). Lučani and Grza populations had two different haplotypes each.
Our results confirmed previous findings that the common frog shows
phylogeographic substructuring. The existence of two genetically diverged population
groups on the territory of Serbia suggests that these populations should be adequately
protected in terms of the conservation of their breeding places and suitable terrestrial
habitats. In Serbia, R. temporaria habitats are currently not only fragmented but also
under intensive anthropogenic pressure, due to intensive urbanization, particularly in
the mountain areas and the promotion of non-sustainable tourism, which makes them
highly vulnerable. Therefore, there is a need for more precise data about species’
phylogeny and distribution, both at the national and regional level, to define
conservation priorities in the near future

AB  - Жаба травњача (Rana temporaria Linnaeus, 1758) у Србији насељава претежно планинске и високопланинске пределе. Међутим, због фрагментисаног ареала и нарушених станишта сматра се ретком врстом. Према националној Црвеној Књизи водоземаца, а на основу IUCN категоризације, има статус скоро угрожене врсте (NT – „Near Threatened“), а према Правилнику о проглашењу и заштити строго заштићених и заштићених дивљих биљака, животиња и гљива на територији Србије је строго заштићена врста.
У овом истраживању анализирани су узорци ткива (јаја, врх репа пуноглавца, врх прста адулта) од укупно 28 јединки травњаче са 14 локалитета на територији Србије сакупљених у периоду 1986-2007. и 2013-17. Парцијалне секвенце 16S rRNK гена митохондријалне ДНК (395 бп) показале су постојање шест хаплотипова, сврстаних у две групе које су и географски јасно раздвојене. Првој припадају јединке са локалитета Бела Црква, Бигар, Грза, Ђердап и Стара планина, а другој оне са подручја централне, западне, југозападне и југоисточне Србије (Лучани, Копаоник, Гоч, Јагодња, Проклетије, Златибор, Власина, Оштрозуб, Шар планина). На локалитету Лучани присутна су два различита хаплотипа.
Анализа гена 16S rRNK се показала као адекватна метода за испитивање генетичке и филогеографске структурираности врсте R. temporaria која се налази под интензивним антропогеним притиском. Због угрожавања генофонда, пре свега губитком повољних станшта и променом климе, постоји опасност драстичног смањења дистрибуције ове врсте у Србији, те је неопходно донешење мера у циљу њене заштите и конзервације.

AB  - Hydropower plants (HPPs) have a strong environmental impact on freshwater wetlands. Small diversion HPPs (SDHPPs) with 0.1–10 MW of installed power, redirect water from small mountainous rivers into several-kilometer-long tubes, disrupting complex dynamics of local aquatic food webs and their interactions with neighbor terrestrial food webs. It certainly affects local aquatic communities, but it is often neglected that two highly threatened vertebrate groups—amphibians and reptiles—which live in and around these wetlands, could be affected as well. In the Balkan peninsula, a part of Southeastern Europe, SDHPPs recently became very attractive and profitable for potential investors after they were proclaimed as eligible for subsidies from the national budget. As a result, in year 2020, the maximal projected number of SHPPs in the Balkans increased to 4,556. According to the literature data, ~28% of amphibian species in the Balkan Peninsula use small rivers and streams in the upper parts of watersheds as feeding, breeding and/or nursery habitats. Additionally, 38% of the total number of reptile species in Europe are registered in the hilly/mountainous areas of the peninsula, and 33% of these species strictly need humid habitats. The attempt of this mini-review is to present the facts which show that SHPPs and DSHPPs, in the way they are currently being installed, present harmful energy solution for the biodiversity of the mountain parts of Balkan peninsula, particularly for local amphibian and reptile populations which rely on lotic aquatic ecosystems and/or humid terrestrial habitats.

AB  - Vrsta Dina lineata (Müller, 1774) naseljava slatkovodne ekosisteme zapadnog Palearktika, od
Velike Britanije do Irana. Kod predatornih vrsta iz podreda Erpobdelliformes uočava se
određeni stepen morfološke varijabilnosti što je doprinelo opisivanju i većeg broja podvrsta.
Boris Sket (1968) je na Balkanskom poluostrvu opisao tri podvrste (D. l. dinarica, D. l.
lacustris, D. l. montana), sa očekivanim prisustvom i nominotipske podvrste D. lineata
lineata, što su novija istraživanja i dokazala. Pored vrste D. lineata, na području Balkana, a
pre svega Dinarida, opisane su nove vrste iz roda Dina (D. minuoculata, D. prokletiaka, D.
sketi), koje pokazuju preferencu prema sličnim staništima kao balkanske podvrste D. lineata i
relativno male morfološke razlike. Filogenetski odnosi između podvrsta D. lineata nisu u
potpunosti razjašnjeni. Savremene molekularno genetičke analize omogućavaju da se ovi
odnosi razjasne. Cilj ove studije je bio da se utvrde filogenetski i filogeografski odnosi između
podvrsta vrste D. lineata, ali i odnosi sa drugim srodnim taksonima iz roda Dina. Studija je
obuhvatila veliko područje od Save na severozapadu, do Makedonije na jugoistoku.
Zabeleženo je prisustvo tri podvrste D. lineata. D. l. dinarica, kao dominantna podvrsta, zatim
D. l. lineata zabeležena na samo nekoliko lokaliteta na teritoriji Srbije i D. l. montana koja je

AB  - The species Dina lineata (Müller, 1774) inhabits freshwater habitats of western Palearctic
from Great Britain to Iran. Predaceous leeches from the suborder Erpobdelliformes show a
degree of morphological variability which leads to description of several subspecies. Boris
Sket described three subspecies of D. lineata on the Balkan Peninsula (D. l. dinarica, D. l.
lacustris, D. l. montana) and suspected presence of nominotypical subspecies D. lineata
lineata, which was confirmed by recent studies. On the Balkan Peninsula, predominantly on
the Dinaric Alps, several new species in the genus Dina were recently described (D.
minuoculata, D. prokletiaka, D. sketi). These species show preference to same habitats as
Balkan subspecies of D. lineata and relatively small morphological differences.
Phylogenetical relations between subspecies of D. lineata are not clear. Contemporary
molecular- genetic analyses enable clarification of these relations. The aim of this study is to
determine the phylogenetic and phylogeographic relations between subspecies of D. lineata
as well as their relations with other species in the genus Dina. The study incorporates large
area from the Sava River in the northwest to Macedonia in the southeast. Three subspecies of
D. lineata were recorded during the field work. D. l. dinarica was the most frequent, D. l.
lineata was recorded on few localities in Serbia and D. l. montana was collected on the
Komovi mountain (Montenegro). Analyses of phylogenetic relations were conducted on the
sequences of mitochondrial DNA that code for cytochrome oxydase I (COI). The results show
that D. l. dinarica could be treated as separate species D. dinarica. This taxon shows
significant phylogeographical variability. Analyses have shown grouping of haplotypes based
on geographical origin of populations. Haplotypes from Serbia were grouped in one group,
those from Bosnia and Herzegovina in to second and third group was comprised of haplotypes
from Montenegro. Great genetic variability may indicate potential hidden speciation within D.
dinarica species.

abstract = "Vrsta Dina lineata (Müller, 1774) naseljava slatkovodne ekosisteme zapadnog Palearktika, od
Velike Britanije do Irana. Kod predatornih vrsta iz podreda Erpobdelliformes uočava se
određeni stepen morfološke varijabilnosti što je doprinelo opisivanju i većeg broja podvrsta.
Boris Sket (1968) je na Balkanskom poluostrvu opisao tri podvrste (D. l. dinarica, D. l.
lacustris, D. l. montana), sa očekivanim prisustvom i nominotipske podvrste D. lineata
lineata, što su novija istraživanja i dokazala. Pored vrste D. lineata, na području Balkana, a
pre svega Dinarida, opisane su nove vrste iz roda Dina (D. minuoculata, D. prokletiaka, D.
sketi), koje pokazuju preferencu prema sličnim staništima kao balkanske podvrste D. lineata i
relativno male morfološke razlike. Filogenetski odnosi između podvrsta D. lineata nisu u
potpunosti razjašnjeni. Savremene molekularno genetičke analize omogućavaju da se ovi
odnosi razjasne. Cilj ove studije je bio da se utvrde filogenetski i filogeografski odnosi između
podvrsta vrste D. lineata, ali i odnosi sa drugim srodnim taksonima iz roda Dina. Studija je
obuhvatila veliko područje od Save na severozapadu, do Makedonije na jugoistoku.
Zabeleženo je prisustvo tri podvrste D. lineata. D. l. dinarica, kao dominantna podvrsta, zatim
D. l. lineata zabeležena na samo nekoliko lokaliteta na teritoriji Srbije i D. l. montana koja je

Therefore, this chapter aims to provide an insight in the microbiological water quality of rivers in Montenegro by compiling the data obtained in period 2009–2018 in national monitoring program and the data collected within the Montenegro survey in 2019 with an emphasis on the hotspots of faecal pollution and possible sources of pollution. Despite the high risk that poor implementation of wastewater treatment might represent for Montenegro, the obtained dataset indicates that overall microbiological water quality of rivers in Montenegro is quite good. About 80% of the investigated sites have bathing water quality according to Montenegrin legislation. Only four sites were identified as hotspots of faecal pollution where the human source of pollution prevails.

This chapter gives insights in the pressures of pollution on Montenegrin waters and in a limited literature data regarding freshwater ecotoxicological studies in Montenegro. Also, this chapter provides new ecotoxicological data obtained during survey in 2019, with a focus on the sites which are identified as hotspots of fecal pollution. The highest responses of biomarkers which indicate embryotoxic, genotoxic, and phytotoxic effects in zebrafish embryo test and in roots of Allium cepa were obtained at Ćehotina – downstream of Pljevlja. Similar results were detected at the site downstream Mojkovac at Tara, yet this site is affected by different type of pollution. Genotoxic endpoints in zebrafish stressed out sites on Morača and Lim rivers which are under pressures of fecal pollution. The data in this chapter provides an insight into current status obtained by the ex situ bioassays and indicates need for more comprehensive in situ assessment.

AB  - Faxonius limosus (formerly known as Orconectes limosus in the literature) is an invasive alien crayfish
species with the largest distribution range in Europe. The first record of this species from the Danube
River in Serbia was near Apatin in 2002, and since then it has expanded its range along the entire
Serbian section. The presence of F. limosus was studied during a twelve-year period (2007–2019),
covering different types of water bodies in Serbia (rivers, canals, lakes, reservoirs and ponds). The
species was detected at seven new localities along the main course of the Danube River, denoting that
its colonisation has developed in two directions, upstream and downstream, respectively. Along with its
expansion in the Danube River, the occurrence of F. limosus has been recorded in all main tributaries ‒
the rivers Sava, Tisa and Velika Morava, as well as the Danube–Tisa–Danube Canal (DTD Canal). Due
to its rapid dispersal rate and negative effect on native crayfish species, urgent measures are needed to
monitor and prevent further spread of this invasive alien species in the Serbian inland waters and the
Danube River Basin.

AB  - Freshwater polychaetes are the most diverse in the Palaearctic, including the Ponto-Caspian region as
an important area of diversity. One of several polychaete species that are spreading from this area is
Manayunkia caspica. For a certain period of time, the range of this species in the Danube River has
been limited, probably because of the Iron Gate dam. This Ponto-Caspian species, which is established
along the Romanian stretch of the Danube River, was recorded for the first time in the Serbian part of
the river in November 2005, and subsequently, it has been repeatedly found in the Iron Gate II Reservoir
at 934 rkm (the town of Kladovo). During the Joint Danube Survey 3 (JDS 3) in September 2013, it
was observed that M. caspica has extended its distribution from the Ponto-Caspian region to Central
and Western Europe, with Klizska Nema (Slovakia/Hungary) as the most upstream locality. The findings
presented herein show that the distribution of M. caspica has for the first time expanded upstream of the
Iron Gate, where it appeared to have established population, making this species a regular component of the macroinvertebrate fauna along the entire stretch of the Danube River.

AB  - We tracked yearly variation in breeding phenology in relation to weather parameters in a common European toad population
from the southeastern part of its range. Phenological data were collected from 2001 to 2003 and from 2011 to 2017 and compared to
open-access daily weather data from a nearby weather station. Data analysis revealed no significant effect of weather on initiation of
breeding and a negative relationship between mean daily humidity and mean cloud cover on the duration of breeding season (P = 0.03).
Further analysis showed a decreasing trend in breeding season humidity in the past 70 years. Our results predict a tendency toward
longer toad breeding seasons in years with drier winter/spring. A projected decrease in humidity in this region could prolong toad
breeding season, potentially exposing adults to higher predation. Therefore, the scenario of further decline in our study population
should be considered and conservation measures planned accordingly.

Punoglavci provode duži vremenski period u vodenim staništima i lakše su uočljivi u odnosu na adulte. Analiza njihove morfologije je jedan od mogućih načina taksonomske identifikacije, naročito u slučajevima kada su genetičke metode nedostupne. Kod nekih vrsta punoglavci na ranim stupnjevima su vizuelno veoma slični, što otežava njihovu identifikaciju na terenu. Definisani su sledeći osnovni ciljevi: utvrditi osobine spoljašnje morfologije punoglavaca analiziranih vrsta žaba na osnovu kojih se može odrediti njihova taksonomska pripadnost; utvrditi efikasnost primene analiza oblika tela punoglavaca u taksonomskoj identifikaciji; razviti procedure za njihovu pouzdanu, brzu i ekonomičnu taksonomsku identifikaciju. Dodatno, izvršena je taksonomska genetička identifikacija, upoređena je upotreba metoda tradicionalne i geometrijske morfometrije u morfološkoj diferencijaciji ranih larvenih stadijuma, kao i filogenetski i fenetički odnosi analiziranih vrsta. Iz prirode su sakupljeni punoglavci R. dalmatina, R. temporaria i B. bufo na ranim razvojnim stupnjevima. Taksonomska identifikacija izvršena je DNK barkoding metodom, primenom 16S rRNK markera. Metodama tradicionalne morfometrije je utvrđeno da relativna dužina i širina glave predstavljaju karaktere za razlikovanje rodova Rana i Bufo, dok je relativna dužina repa karakter za razlikovanje dve vrste mrkih žaba. Detaljnije analize oblika i veličine laboratorijski uspešno odgajanih punoglavaca R. dalmatina, R. temporaria i B. bufo vršene su metodama geometrijske i tradicionalne morfometrije na ranim stupnjevima razvića.

AB  - Brown frogs (R. dalmatina, R. graeca, R. temporaria) and common toad (Bufo bufo) are anuran species that can be syntopic on the territory of Serbia. They can be found in the aquatic habitats only during short breeding season in the early spring. In contrast, their tadpoles are present for a longer period of time in aquatic habitats and are easy to record. Analysis of tadpole morphology is one of the possible ways for species identification, especially when genetic methods are unavailable. Tadpoles at early developmental stages are visually very similar and thus difficult for identification in the field. The main objectives of this study were: to determine external tadpole morphological characters that can serve for taxonomic identification; to determine effectiveness of tadpole shape analyses in taxonomic identification; to develop procedures for their reliable, rapid and economic taxonomic identification. In addition, genetic identification was performed, the usage of traditional and geometric morphometic methods for morphological differentiation of tadpoles at early developmental stages was compared and phylogenetic and phenetic relationships of the analyzed species were examined. Tadpoles at early developmental stages of R. dalmatina, R. temporaria and B. bufo were collected from the field. Taxonomic identification of analyzed species was performed by DNA barcoding, using marker 16S rRNA. Traditional morphometrics was applied and the results suggested that relative head length and head width could be good discriminative characteristics for tadpoles of two Rana species and B. bufo. To distinguish between tadpoles of two analyzed brown frog species, relative tail length could be used. More detailed analyzes of size and shape of successfully laboratory raised R. dalmatina, R. temporaria and B. bufo tadpoles were conducted by comparative (2D landmark-based geometric and traditional) morphometric analyses. Both methodologies produced very similar results considering quantification and description of size and shape variability. Unlike B. bufo tadpoles, tadpoles of two Rana species were with smaller bodies and tails twice as long as the body. When two species of brown frogs were compared, R. dalmatina tadpoles had shorter tails and larger bodies. However, observed subtle shape variation of the distal region of the tail was detected only by geometric morphometrics.

Orthocladinae, Tanypodinae and Chironominae). The most abundant species altogether was
Chironomus riparius, with highest abundance in Barička reka. In reservoirs, the most abundant
non-biting midges belong to genus Procladius and Ablabesmyia monilis agg. while in the

AB  - Diatoms are dominant group in a phytobenthos community of freshwater ecosystems. Their autecological features are well known, and various diatom indices are designed to estimate changes in aquatic ecosystems. In order to develop system for ecological status assessment in Montenegro according to the principles of the EU Water Framework Directive, quantitative and qualitative composition of benthic diatoms was studied. Phytobenthos sampling was carried out during July of 2018 at the Rivers Ćehotina, Lim, Tara, Zeta, Morača, Rijeka Crnojevića, Bojana, Komarnica, as well as at the Skadar Lake. Sampling, preparation of permanent slides, identification and enumeration of diatoms were done according to the standard methods. Altogether, 107 taxa belonging to 39 genera were recorded. The most diverse genera were found to be Navicula (12), Cymbella (11), Gomphonema (10) and Fragilaria (9). Achnanthidium minutissimum, Amphora pediculus, Cocconeis placentula var. euglypta, Encyonema minutum, E. ventricosum, Navicula cryptotenella and N. tripunctata were the most frequent, while taxa belonging to Achnanthidium sp., Cocconeis sp. and Encyonema sp. were the most abundant in the samples. Our research revealed dominance of β-mesosaprobic taxa, as well as taxa typical for mesotrophic to eutrophic conditions. It was also confirmed that IPS index is effective metric of stress in running waters. Presented data are in accordance with previous investigations of epilithic diatoms in freshwaters of Montenegro and comparable types of rivers in Serbia, and could be successfully used for further development of ecological status assessment in Montenegro.

abstract = "Diatoms are dominant group in a phytobenthos community of freshwater ecosystems. Their autecological features are well known, and various diatom indices are designed to estimate changes in aquatic ecosystems. In order to develop system for ecological status assessment in Montenegro according to the principles of the EU Water Framework Directive, quantitative and qualitative composition of benthic diatoms was studied. Phytobenthos sampling was carried out during July of 2018 at the Rivers Ćehotina, Lim, Tara, Zeta, Morača, Rijeka Crnojevića, Bojana, Komarnica, as well as at the Skadar Lake. Sampling, preparation of permanent slides, identification and enumeration of diatoms were done according to the standard methods. Altogether, 107 taxa belonging to 39 genera were recorded. The most diverse genera were found to be Navicula (12), Cymbella (11), Gomphonema (10) and Fragilaria (9). Achnanthidium minutissimum, Amphora pediculus, Cocconeis placentula var. euglypta, Encyonema minutum, E. ventricosum, Navicula cryptotenella and N. tripunctata were the most frequent, while taxa belonging to Achnanthidium sp., Cocconeis sp. and Encyonema sp. were the most abundant in the samples. Our research revealed dominance of β-mesosaprobic taxa, as well as taxa typical for mesotrophic to eutrophic conditions. It was also confirmed that IPS index is effective metric of stress in running waters. Presented data are in accordance with previous investigations of epilithic diatoms in freshwaters of Montenegro and comparable types of rivers in Serbia, and could be successfully used for further development of ecological status assessment in Montenegro.",
