AB  - We tested intra-population morphological variability and the ontogeny of sexual dimorphism in a sample of 78 individuals of Lacerta agilis (Linnaeus, 1758) from the Bistra Mountain in the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia. The effect of predation was also assessed by examining the
animals’ tails. In 43.8% of individuals of all age classes tails were missing or regenerated, which
means that lizards are subjected to high predation at this locality. After measuring, marking and photographing, all animals were released into their natural habitat. The set of 17 linear measurements and body mass were taken for each individual, and snout-vent length was taken as a standard descriptor of body size. Among adults, significant sexual dimorphism was recorded in body size, head dimensions and distance between front and hind limbs, while sexual dimorphism was not
observed in juveniles. Females had greater body size and distance between front and hind limbs, while males had proportionately larger heads. Static allometric trajectories of adult females and males were assessed, and they diverged only for head and mouth width. Divergence of ontogenetic allometric trajectories was significant for all measurements except the dimensions of the fourth toe
on the front and hind limbs. Sexual dimorphism pattern in sand lizards from Bistra Mountain was in
concordance with previous studies. Larger adult female body size could be interpreted as a result of
sexual selection for fecundity, while larger male heads could result from selection for greater bite
force in two ways: intra-sexual selection (between males) in relation to territory defense, and inter-
sexual in relation to copulatory bites. Sexual dimorphism was not significant among juveniles: adults apparently attain a different morphology through diverging allometric trajectories during growth.
Further studies should include populations of sand lizards from different habitat types to further assess patterns of intra-specific morphological variability.

AB  - Although the European pond turtle (Emys orbicularis) has been included
   in studies for several decades, the information about its distribution
   and the state of populations in Serbia is still incomplete. The data
   collected from the available literature sources, and those based on the
   authors' own field investigations, indicate that E. orbicularis occupies
   a large part of the territory of the Republic of Serbia, preferring
   aquatic biotopes at lower altitudes. We compiled a list of 287
   localities where the presence of the pond turtle has been recorded. Of
   those, 14\% (40 localities) were known only from literature sources,
   localities added during our field investigations represent 82\% (235
   sites), 4\% (12 localities) confirming literature data. We also gathered
   information on the main negative threats to the endurance of the pond
   turtle in Serbia. These are habitat pollution, degradation and
   destruction, and the spread of allochthonous invasive turtle species.
   Some protective and conservation measures are suggested in the
   conclusion.

AB  - Detailed distribution pattern of colubrid snakes in Serbia is still inadequately described, despite the long historical study. In this paper, we provide accurate distribution of seven species, with previously published and newly accumulated faunistic records compiled. Comparative analysis of faunas among all Balkan countries showed that Serbian colubrid fauna is among the most distinct (together with faunas of Slovenia and Romania), due to small number of species. Zoogeographic analysis showed high chorotype diversity of Serbian colubrids: seven species belong to six chorotypes. South-eastern Serbia (Pčinja River valley) is characterized by the presence of all colubrid species inhabiting our country, and deserves the highest conservation status at the national level. This study should provide the basis for further, more comprehensive faunistic research, as the data on distribution of colubrid species in our country are far from complete, with large distribution “gaps”, especially in northern and central parts of Serbia.

AB  - The North American chelonian, Trachemys scripta elegans, is still among the most popular pets worldwide. However, if released into natural water bodies outside of its natural distribution range it becomes a great nuisance and threat to native freshwater turtles and other aquatic wildlife. We report, for the first time, on the case of possible reproduction of the red-eared sliders under natural conditions in north-central Serbia. In July 2014 we found two red-eared slider hatchlings near the canal in the settlement of Borča near the Serbian capital. Judging by their body sizes and appearance (muddy shells, curved carapace), they had recently hatched near the place where they were found.

AB  - In this paper we present confirmed and potential distribution ranges of all native Serbian reptile species. The information provided herein presents the combination of the newly collected faunistic data and previously published records. The centres of reptilian diversity in Serbia were evaluated, in order to focus future conservation efforts on the regions of particular importance for the protection of this understudied group of animals. We found four main centres of species richness: three in Metohija and one in Šumadija, with 17-21 species per 50 × 50 km square. Analysis of the similarity of species composition in different regions of Serbia showed that South-eastern Serbia is the most distinct from other regions of Serbia, due to high number of Mediterranean species, with two being found exclusively in that region (E. quatuorlineata and P. najadum). Metohija is also very distinct, due to the highest number of species and significant number of specific (Mediterranean) faunal elements. The remaining geographic regions are grouped into three clusters, with Kosovo-Southern Serbia cluster being especially distinct in the terms of species richness and the presence of Mediterranean species. We also compared Serbian herpetofauna with those in other Balkan countries, considering species' numbers and zoogeographic herpetofaunistic elements. Serbian herpetofauna is closest to the Romanian. Zoogeographic analysis showed that reptilian fauna of Serbia consists of eight chorotypes, with the Eastern-Mediterranean (nine species) and Southern-European (five species) as the most dominant ones.
AB  - U ovom radu predstavljeni su potvrđeni i potencijalni areali svih autohtonih gmizavaca Srbije. Korišćeni su do sada neobjavljeni podaci terenskih istraživanja, kao i informacije objavljene u literaturi. Ocenjeni su pretpostavljeni centri diverziteta gmizavaca u Srbiji, sa ciljem da se skrene pažnja na konzervacione mere neophodne za zaštitu pojedinih regiona od značaja za diverzitet gmizavaca u našoj zemlji. Utvrđeno je postojanje četiri centra diverziteta: tri u Metohiji i jednog u Šumadiji, sa prisustvom od 17 do 21 vrste na površini od 50 × 50 km. Analiza regiona Srbije po pitanju sličnosti sastava faune gmizavaca pokazala je da se region jugoistočne Srbije najviše odvaja od svih ostalih zbog ekskluzivnog prisustva dve mediteranske vrste gmizavaca (Elaphe quatuorlineata i Platyceps najadum). Metohija se odvaja po najvećem diverzitetu kao i prisustvu velikog broja mediteranskih vrsta gmizavaca. Ostali regioni formiraju tri grupe, pri čemu se klaster koga čine Kosovo i južna Srbija odvaja po prisustvu mediteranskih vrsta gmizavaca. Kada su na sličan način upoređene faune gmizavaca svih država Balkanskog poluostrva ispostavilo se da je fauna gmizavaca Srbije najsličnija onoj u Rumuniji. Zoogeografska analiza je pokazala da gmizavci Srbije spadaju u osam horotipova, pri čemu su po broju vrsta najzastupljeniji istočnomediteranski (sa devet vrsta) i južnoevropski (sa pet vrsta) horotipovi.

AB  - In aquatic and surrounding terrestrial ecosystems, snakes of the genus
   Natrix are among the top predators, feeding predominantly on fishes and
   amphibians, but also on other reptiles and small mammals. In the diets
   of Natrix natrix and N. tessellata, preferred food items vary
   geographically and during ontogeny. To understand these variations, we
   collected data on their diet composition in several habitats (river,
   wetlands, and two types of lakes), some of which are under severe
   anthropogenic pressures. Both Natrix species were able to quickly adapt
   to changes in available prey, and to feed even on non-indigenous,
   invasive, and potentially hazardous fish. Disturbed ecosystems are
   particularly susceptible to invasions. Therefore, if alien fishes become
   dominant, they may threaten populations of native snakes. On the other
   hand, semi-aquatic snakes can contribute to natural regulation of alien
   fish species abundance. The preliminary results presented herein
   emphasize the urgent need for integrative studies of natricine snakes
   and their prey ecology under various and/or dynamic circumstances.
   Better understanding of the functioning of different aquatic ecosystems
   may enable proper conservation and restoration for these snake species
   and their habitats.

AB  - During 200 million years of evolutionary history, all chelonians are characterized by a well
developed, protective shell. Conserved during major evolutionary transitions (e.g. return to
the sea), shell likely provides substantial selective advantages. Conversely, heavy and rigid
shell poses a set of serious motion limitations, especially in terrestrial species during displacements
in rugged and complex environments. We examined how terrestrial tortoises overcome
various obstacles in their natural habitat. We compared several Balkan populations of
Hermann’s tortoises by placing individuals (app. 1100) in three types of challenging positions
to measure their performances.
Righting ability: males were more successful in righting themselves than females. Body size
influenced righting abilities only in females: smaller ones were more efficient. Individuals
with markedly domed carapace (increased instability) and shorter bridges (enlarging space for
leg movements) were more successful to right themselves.
Boldness to cross a steep step: animals from rugged environment were more prone to jump
from 50 cm high obstacle then ones from the flat habitat. Genders had similar success,
but adults showed more boldness to leap off the hedge than juveniles.
Disentangling themselves form thick vegetation: residents of Mediterranean macchia displayed
moderate pulling force and released themselves quickly by backwards movements.
Tortoises living in herbaceous habitats moved forward, deployed strong pulling force, ripping
on the substrate and were far less successful.
Individuals from different habitats, sex and age classes exhibited divergent and apparently
appropriate traits and strategies to overcome each locomotory challenge. We further speculate
that behavioural responses, as a response to morphological constraints, are shaped by
experience. These results may have conservation value and assist in improving translocation
strategies for endangered tortoise populations.

AB  - We processed 40 morphological characteristics of 676 adult Hermann's tortoises (Testudo hermanni) (310 males and 366 females) from four localities in the central parts of the Balkan Peninsula. Analyses of variance and covariance showed significant differences between males and females in 38 and 35 traits, respectively. On the other hand, analyses of geographic variability within each gender, i.e. analyses of variance and covariance of separate traits between localities showed "constant" dimensions and proportions of several body parts. Most of the invariable traits were the elements of the rear portion of the tortoises' shell and free body parts, in both genders. Among these are some of the most prominent sexually dimorphic traits in T. hermanni. Therefore, we speculate that "standard" sizes of certain superficial bodily attributes in this species are conditioned by their role in gender discrimination, as well as courting and mating endeavours.
