Green areas located within large cities, as natural ecotypes, are a convenient habitat for ticks and their use recreational is associated with the potential risk of acquiring tick-borne diseases. This study estimated I. ricinus tick density, prevalence infection Borrelia species diversity these bacteria in green urban area (Olsztyn) north-eastern Poland, an endemic region The were collected during spring autumn 2015, at sites differing degree human pressure habitat. detection, typing...
Dermacentor reticulatus is the second most important tick species in Poland. Although north-eastern region of Poland considered typical for D. and treated as a contiguous area Eastern populations meadow ticks, occurrence this to date has been recorded separate foci. The present report supplements data on geographical distribution urban natural biotopes (Warmia Mazury province). In 2015–2017 (during springtime activity ticks) adult questing were found 13 25 monitored localities. Six sites are...

W publikacji przedstawiono nowe stanowiska 40 gatunków porostów oraz 12 grzybów naporostowych (oznaczonych gwiazdką), które są zagrożone w Polsce lub rzadkie kraju regionie. Ponadto, pracy zamieszczono notowanie niezlichenizowanego grzyba <i>Naevia punctiformis</i> (Ach.) A. Massal. (oznaczony plusem), który ze względu na podobieństwo do zlichenizowanych przedstawicieli rodzaju <i>Arthonia</i> Ach. s.l., jest często uwzględniany publikacjach lichenologicznych. Poza...

A list of 63 species lichens and 4 lichenicolous fungi recorded on the bark red oak (<em>Quercus rubra</em> L.) in Poland is given. Literature data results field studies conducted forest Olsztyn Lake District between 1999 2005 are used report. Fifty-five taxa, including rare Poland, for instance <em>Lecanora albella, Lecidella subviridis, Ochrolechia turneri</em>, were recorded.
Loxospora cristinae sp. nov. is a sterile corticolous lichen characterized by sorediate, thin, smooth, folded, cracked-areolate and non-verruculose to partly verruculose thalli, soralia soon becoming confluent the production of 2’-O-methylperlatolic acid. The new species similar recently described L. assateaguensis confusa, which are also contain can be readily distinguished from thallus, distinctly almost edge pustular, circular developing apically on thalline verrucae, confusa presence...
This paper presents the list of 50 species <i>Erysiphales</i> and describes their localities concentrated mainly within north-eastern Poland. New host have been determined. Many identified were common in area under studies although they teen considered hither to rare
Fungi of the genus <em>Ampelomyces </em>are major antagonists <em>Erysiphales </em>fungi being a significant group phytopathogens. The hyperparasites attack various developmental stages powdery mildews. As result infested ascomata do not reach stage maturity, form appendages nor ascospores, which is linked with reduction source primary infections. Studies conducted so far have mainly been devoted to application in biological control mildews on crops, whilst few only...

New localities of <em>Rinodina degeliana</em> in Poland are described. The morphology, chemistry, distribution and ecology the species discussed characters that help to differentiate <em>R. degaliana</em> from similar lichens presented. is relatively frequent lime-hornbeam forests northern central Poland.
The study presents recent data on the distribution of <em>Fellhanera gyrophorica </em>(Pilocarpaceae, Ascomycota) in Poland, a rare lichen with crustose, usually sterile thallus. Both previous and new localities species are presented its ecology general distribution.

To date, the lichens Chrysothrix candelaris and Varicellaria hemisphaerica have been classified as accurate primeval lowland forest indicators. Both inhabit particularly valuable remnants of oak-hornbeam forests in Europe, but tend toward a specific kind vicariance on local scale. The present study was undertaken to determine habitat factors responsible for this phenomenon verify indicative conservation value these lichens. main spatial climatic parameters that, along with structure,...
This study analysed whether the littoral zone in immediate vicinity of bathing sites retains potentially pathogenic yeasts on phyllosphere surface and to what extent species composition microfungi waters is similar. The research was carried out selected lakes located within administrative boundaries city Olsztyn, largest Masurian Lake District (NE Poland). experiment conducted three summer seasons near lakes, which are most popular as recreational (Lake Kortowskie, Tyrsko, Skanda)....

Abstract The paper presents the results of a lichenological study conducted in 2012 ‘Lekowo’ forest complex, situated north-western part Mazovia (Forest Division Ciechanów). It is largest complex area, covering 1596 ha. research area comprises two small nature reserves (‘Lekowo’ - 5,31 ha, and ‘Modła’ 9,36 ha) with old-growth oak trees (160-200 years age) adjacent managed pine forests (76-107 age). aim this was to investigate species composition lichen biota both determine role preserving...

The lichen biota of the Karnieszewice Forest Division (N Poland) is presented. Despite it predominantly a strongly managed woodland area, 270 species were found there including many rare for Poland, as well European Lowland. Near 20% whole are considered to be threatened in country (categories CR, EN, VU), and 34 protected by law Poland. Agonimia flabelliformis reported second time from Polish lowlands.
