Crop content analysis, gross pathological, parasitological and bacteriological examinations were carried out on all of the birds. Parasitological examination revealed the presence of Tetrathyridium in the peritoneal cavity and livers (36\%-55,5\%) in some of hunted birds and in all 3 dead birds. One of the mortality factors of the species in the study area was heavy infestation by Tetrathyridium, which is the larval stage of the cestodes Mesocestoides species.}, keywords = {Aves, Mesocestoides spp., mortality, Platyhelminthes, Rock partridge, Tetrathyridium}, author = {Manios, N. and Papazahariadou, M. and Frydas, S. and PApageorgiou, N. and Tsachalidis, E. and Georgopoulou, J.} } @proceedings {9229, title = {A survey of parasitical fauna of the rock partridge (Alectoris graeca) in Epirus and Fokida, Greece.}, year = {2001}, month = {3-7 September}, pages = {204}, address = {Lemesos-Cyprus}, keywords = {kape aves}, author = {Manios, N. and Papazaxariadou, M. and Fridas, S. and PApageorgiou, N.} } @proceedings {9230, title = {Tetrathyridium as a mortality factor of rock partridge (Alectoris graeca) in the subalpine zone of Fokida, Greece}, year = {2001}, month = {3-7 September}, pages = {205}, address = {Lemesos-Cyprus}, keywords = {KAPE Aves Platyhelminthes Coleoptera}, author = {Manios, N. and Papazaxariadou, M. and Fridas, S. and PApageorgiou, N. and Georgopoulou, I.} } @article {3812, title = {Assessing the suitability of a range of benthic indices in the evaluation of environmental impact of fin and shellfish aquaculture located in sites across Europe}, journal = {AquacultureAquacultureAquaculture}, volume = {293}, number = {3-4}, year = {2009}, note = {ISI Document Delivery No.: 472RPTimes Cited: 15Cited Reference Count: 59}, month = {Aug}, pages = {231-240}, type = {Article}, abstract = {The European Union-funded ECASA project (Ecosystem Approach for Sustainable Aquaculture) studied the impacts from aquaculture on ecosystems from northern Norway to Greece. The objectives of this investigation were to identify quantitative indicators of the effects of aquaculture on marine communities. and to assess their applicability over a range of ecosystems and aquaculture production systems. The study included 6 Mediterranean and 4 Atlantic sites, 7 of which produced finfish (seabream, seabass, tuna, salmon and cod), and 2 bivalve molluscs (oysters, mussels, and clams); one site produced both fish and bivalves. Cultivation methods included finfish cages, long-lines and trestles. Similar sampling methodologies were employed at the 10 study sites, obtaining sediment, hydrodynamic, and benthic faunal data. The horizontal impact from organic enrichment extended 50 m from the farms, with contradictory responses in several indicators (individual abundance, biomass) and a more consistent response of the Infaunal Trophic Index (ITI) and AZTI{\textquoteright}s Marine Biotic Index (AMBI). By means of Partial Redundancy Analysis, it was demonstrated that the environmental variables explained 53.2\% of the variability in the macrofaunal variables (individual abundance, species richness. diversity, AMBI and ITI), whilst the explained variance was partialled out within three groups of variables: (i) {\textquoteright}hydrography{\textquoteright} (depth, distance to farm, average current speed), which explained 11.5\% of the variance; (ii){\textquoteright}sediment{\textquoteright}(Eh and percentages of silt and total organic matter), which explained 5.4\%: and (iii) {\textquoteright}cages{\textquoteright} (years of production and annual production), which explained 15.2\%. The shared variance explained by interactions among these groups was 21.1\%. These results, together with multiple regression analysis, provide an accurate assessment of the degree of impact from aquaculture. In conclusion, the use of several benthic indicators, in assessing farm impacts, together with the investigation of dynamics of the studied location, water depth, years of farm activity, and total annual production, must be included when interpreting the response of benthic communities to organic enrichment from aquaculture.

Short-toed Eagles used southern slopes for nesting and nest-sites were often located on the upper third of each slope. Nest trees were found significantly closer to rain water gullies, to the boundary of a different habitat type, and to the nearest forest opening greater than 0.5 ha than the randomly selected nest trees. Nest-sites had a significantly lower mean score of human disturbance than random sites and were found in mature pine forest associations, dominated by Calabrian Pine Pinus brutia or Black Pine P. nigra. The total tree density of Short-toed Eagle nest-sites was lower than random sites. Canopy cover in the dominant and intermediate tree layer at nest-sites was lower than at random sites. Short-toed Eagles tended to select sites for nesting that provided a combination of easy access and maximum shelter of the nest content from predators and inclement weather. The preservation of open structure of mature pine stands on south facing slopes near clearings may be critical for the continued conservation of the Short-toed Eagle in actively managed forests, such as the Dadia-Lefkimi-Soufli forest complex.}, keywords = {Aves}, author = {Bakaloudis, D.E. and Vlachos, C. and PApageorgiou, N. and Holloway, G.J.} } @proceedings {2657, title = {Elements of ecology of the grey partridge at Grammos mountain in Greece}, year = {2001}, month = {3-7 September 2001}, pages = {192}, address = {Lemesos, Cyprus}, keywords = {kape aves}, author = {Alexiou, B. and Manios, N. and Chatzinikos, E. and PApageorgiou, N.} } @proceedings {2658, title = {Elements of ecology of the grey partridge at Grammos Mountain in Greece.}, year = {2001}, month = {7-9 September}, pages = {192}, address = {Lemesos- Cyprus}, keywords = {kape aves}, author = {Alexiou, B. and Manios, N. and Chatzinikos, E. and PApageorgiou, N.} }
