Prvi nalaz Batracobdelloides moogi Nesemann & Csanyi, 1995 u Srbiji

Abstract

Tokom monitoringa kvaliteta površinskih voda grada Beograda, na lokalitetu PKB kanal Crpna stanica sakupljeno je četiri pijavice Batracobdelloides moogi. Do sada objavljene publikacije ne navode prisustvo ove vrste u Srbiji, ali Groser i sar. (2015) pretpostavljaju da je prisutna jer je nađena na bliskim područjima (Mađarska, Austrija, Dunav). Ovaj nalaz predstavlja značajan doprinos kako za poznavanje same vrste B. moogi, tako i cele faune pijavica Srbije i šireg regiona.

During the monitoring of surface water quality of the city of Belgrade, four individuals of B. moogi were collected in the PKB canal. Checklists of leeches of Serbia mention no records of this leech. Grosser et al. (2015) suspect its presence since it was recorded in nearby regions (Hungary, Austria, and the Danube River). This record is an important contribution to the knowledge on the biology of B. moogi and also to the knowledge of the fauna of leeches of both Serbia and the region.
