Plži přírodní rezervace U Výpustku v CHKO Moravský kras [Gastropods of the U Výpustku Nature Reserve in the Moravian Karst PLA]

Abstract

The U Výpustku Nature Reserve is located in the central part of the Moravian Karst PLA near the Křtiny Town. The reserve is predominantly forested area with multitude of karst features, such as caves and sinkholes. The valley was shaped in devonian limestones by the Křtinský potok Brook during the Quaternary. In total, 73 species of terrestrial gastropods were recorded (43% of the 171 species occurring in the Czech Republic), seven of which are included in the Red List of threatened species in the Czech Republic and 13 were newly recorded for the area. The majority of the recorded species (43; 59%) are forest dwellers, followed by euryvalent species (13; 18%). The proportion of open-country species is lower: sun-lit rock and steppe (5; 7%), silviphobic (3; 4%), dry-habitat (2; 3%), hygrophilous (4; 6%) and wetland (2; 3%). Among the recorded taxa, there are several rare and sensitive species reflecting the well-preserved state and biological value of the studied area, e.g. Daudebardia brevipes (VU), Ruthenica filograna, Truncatellina claustralis (VU), Chondrina arcadica clienta (NT) and Granaria frumentum (NT). Synanthropic (Arion distinctus, Deroceras reticulatum) and invasive (Arion vulgaris) species were recorded for the first time in the reserve, suggesting their current spread.

The Maštale Nature Reserve (Eastern Bohemia, Czech Republic) contains a system of rocky sandstone valleys with springs, ponds and several streams. Aquatic molluscs of this area have never been studied so far and it was the reason for the first inventory conducted in 2019 and 2020. Altogether 19 species were found at 39 sites. Radix labiata, Gyraulus albus, Ancylus fluviatilis and Pisidium casertanum belonged among most often recorded species while Bythinella austriaca, Acroloxus lacustre, Lymnaea stagnalis, Anodonta anatina, Pisidium milium and P. personatum were found at only 1or 2 sites. Most of recorded molluscs belonged to common and widespread species only gastropod Bythinella austriaca and pea mussels Pisidium milium and P. obtusale are listed in the Red List in the category Near Threatened. The occurrence of hydrobiid B. austriaca in the area where sandstone dominated is noteworthy. Two non-native species Physa acuta and Ferrissia californica were found.
Data
Full-text available
The current version of the check-list follows Horsák et al. (2013) with up-to-date modifications supplemented with a reference. Distribution map for each species was constructed based on published data and our knowledge based on unpublished records. So far 251 species of molluscs, including 223 species of gastropods (51 aquatic and 172 terrestrial) and 28 species of bivalves, have been found outdoors in the Czech Republic. The fauna of Slovakia comprises 249 species, including 220 gastropods (51 aquatic and 169 terrestrial) and 29 bivalves.
Book
Full-text available
This book includes all know species of molluscs recorded in the Czech and Slovak Republics. All species and subspecies occurring in Czech and Slovak Republics are shown on 130 high-quality colour plates; their ecology, distribution and reliable identification is given in the text. Photographs of characteristic specimens in multiple views, often accompanied by surface and mouth details, provide a clear tool for rapid and reliable identification of all native and introduced mollusc species in the Czech Republic and Slovakia. Taken together with the text, they make the book exceptionally informative. This fact will be certainly appreciated by amateur and professional zoologists, conservationists, teachers as well as shell collectors and all lovers of nature. The book is fully bilingual with parallel Czech and English versions.

This paper considers the numbers of species and individuals of terrestrial snails in small plots (quadrats) of different sizes (0.0625 m², 0.25 m², 0.56 m²) in three types of treeless fen sites differing in calcium content. It compares the results of considering only live individuals or of combining these with empty shells. In two of the three sizes of plots and all fen (mineral level) types there was a clear increase of species when empty shells were included. In very calcium rich sites, empty shells contribute significantly to a summary of the fauna in the plot over several years, and can improve the inventory efficiency of sampling. However, when comparisons are made among sites with different soil chemistry, estimates of densities and relative abundances will be distorted, because shells decay at different rates among them. Hence, in any studies concerned with densities or spatial heterogeneity within sites it is necessary to distinguish between live individuals and empty shells.

Empty mollusc shells provide evidence of the species' presence over various temporal and spatial scales. However, the persistence of the shell can differ depending on the levels of soil pH and soil humidity. Although this is generally known, there are virtually no experimental data on shell decomposition rate and its relation to shell size and site conditions. Here we study disappearance and degradation rates of shells of nine common species covering the variation in shell size and ecological requirements of temperate European land snails. These shells were exposed to decomposition during a 3-year field experiment in six forest types, representing a gradient of soil pH and humidity. Rates of disappearance and (in larger species) of degradation were estimated by removing the exposed shells and measuring their condition after 6, 12, 24 and 36 months. The disappearance rate was modelled by generalized linear models in relation to species and forest type. The data showed an increase in shell disappearance rate from dry alkaline through to wet acidic forests, but the effect of species size outweighed that of habitat. While shells of large species only started to disappear after 3 years in wet acidic sites, most shells of small species had already disappeared by that time. In contrast, in dry habitats the loss of small shells only started after 3 years. The results clearly support the benefits of using empty shells in mollusc research, especially less damaged shells, which represent the individuals that were alive less than 2 years ago, regardless of shell size and habitat type. However, the marked differences in decomposition rate related to shell size and habitat also highlight the need to take these into account if a studied parameter is confounded with variation in shell size and/or site alkalinity or humidity.
