Through systematic recording of stranded individuals, it was shown that marine turtles regularly occur in the Upper Adriatic Sea. All 443 specimens examined belonged to the Logger-head Turtle, Caretta caretta. The highest numbers are found during the summer months (July-September), the lowest in the cold season. Most individuals are juveniles, suggesting that Loggerheads use the Upper Adriatic Sea primarily as foragoing area until they reach maturity. The northwester Adriatic Sea seems not to play an important role as a wintering and hibernation area, and no important role at all for adults. In 1999, exceptionally high numbers of Loggerhead Turtles were recorded (n = 95); most of them were smaller than 40 cm Curved Carapace Length, and thus smaller than the average of other years. Two Loggerhead Turtles recovered in the Adriatic Sea had been tagged at the nesting grounds at Zakynthos, Greece.

The population size in the area occupied by the donkeys was estimated by independent subjective assessment and by two mark and recapture techniques as being approximately 300 to 400 animals with a density of 8-10 animals/km-2. It was concluded that subjective assessments after a period of familiarization with the study area can provide estimates close to those obtained by other systematic sampling techniques. During daylight hours the donkeys were most frequently observed in groups of one to four animals although larger grazing associations were also formed. The animals exhibited features of social organization typical of feral asses appropriate to the length of time the population had been established.

Anthropogenic dispersal may have been an important factor. Rana levantina is added to the Cypriot species list and replaces R. ridibunda. Natrix natrix ssp.? has been rediscovered from a second extant locality; it is certainly not identical with populations on the opposite Turkish coast.
