Peatlands are widespread on the North, where they occupy large areas of northern Europe, Asia and Canada. Occurrence of this type of ecosystems in Bosnia and Herzegovina contains an indication of nature conservation in general and represents an extraordinary natural value. The status of peatland ecosystems in the Balkans should be carefully monitored especially today, at the time of the already recognizable effects of climate change. The preserved structure and functionality of these ecosystems might indicate satisfactory degree of resilience to climate change, but adverse state warns on the need to take appropriate actions.

Recent conceptual advances highlight that species may achieve invasiveness via performance along at least three distinct dimensions: 1) local abundance, 2) geographic range size, and 3) habitat breadth in naturalized distributions. Associations among these dimensions and the factors that determine success in each have yet to be assessed at large geographic scales. Here, we combine data from over one million vegetation plots covering the extent of Europe and its habitat diversity with databases on species’ distributions, traits, and historical origins to provide a comprehensive assessment of invasiveness dimensions for the European alien seed plant flora. Invasiveness dimensions are linked in alien distributions, leading to a continuum from overall poor invaders to super invaders—abundant, widespread aliens that invade diverse habitats. This pattern echoes relationships among analogous dimens...

The specimens were fished out from the tributaries of the river Neretva: Neretvica, Sistica and Kraljuscica. The study was done on 100 m of aterstream, where an unequal numbers of individuals was determined. 31 individuals was found in river Neretvica, 10 individuals in river Sistica and 4 in river Kraljuscica. Different hydromorphological characteristics of the waterstream have largely contributed to the different population abundance of this crayfish. Morphometric analysis included six parameters: (TL) total length [cm], (W) weight (gr), (ARL) carapace length [cm], (CPW) carapace width [cm], (ROL) rostrum length [cm], (ROW) rostrum width [cm], (CLL) claws length [cm] and (TEL) tail length [cm]. Total body length of the white- clawed crayfish varied from 4.3 to 8. 6cm, while the individual with maximum length was found in river Neretvica. Weight of the individuals varied from 5g to 26g. Weight is the parameter with the highest coefficient of variation where differences in weight were found in the individuals of equal length. According to the shape (length and width) of the rostrum, crayfish from river Neretvica and Kraljuscica had higher similarity than recripocally than with the individuals cought in river Sistica (isosceles triangle). The connection between body length and carapax width had been determined by linear regression, as well as the connection between body length and claws length. Condition index values are higher in males than in females and the male domination was express in all three watercourses, as well as in the overall sample (28males and 17 females).
