Abstract:
Among Goldcrests ringed in Denmark, Sweden and Finland, and recovered later the same autumn in the British Isles, a remarkably high proportion (30:5) of males are found , compared with the assumption of equal sex ratio or a surplus (55%) of males in the migrating population during autumn. Sex ratio bias was not found in birds ringed in Norway. Provided that males and females can be assumed to have on average the same relative fat deposits and that the sexes are morphologically similar, both sexes should have the same flight range. Differences in flight capacity can thus not be a main explanation to the sexual bias in the short time recoveries in the British Isles. An alternative explanation may be a difference in migratory strategy between the sexes when facing long sea passages. If there is a choice, e.g. an alternative migratory route along the coast, the females, although for unknown reasons, fly out over the sea to a lesser extent than the males. Different geographical situations, compared to the rest of southern Scandinavia, is assumed to explain why Goldcrests ringed in southern Norway and later recovered in the British Isles do not show the same sexual bias.

Abstract:
During a visit to the Natural History Museum London I examined material of the genus Porocyphus from the British Isles. A collection labelled Porocyphus coccodes [Scotland, Forfar, Caenlochan, on damp, E-facing rock (±basic), 1700 ft, 10 viii 1968, P. James (BM)] turned out to be a well-developed specimen of Metamelanea umbonata Henssen. Another two specimens from Scotland sent to me for identification belong here as well: Mid-Perth, Bread-albana, Creag Mhòr, S-facing cliffs, 700–800 m, 27/39.35, 6 vii 1979, B. Coppins 4573 (E, hb M.

Abstract:
Eric Fitch Daglish (1892–1966) was a naturalist by inclination, a free-lance author and editor in business and, by practice, a wood-engraver of high repute. Taught wood-engraving skills by Paul Nash, he was a close friend also of other famous engravers (John Nash, Eric Gill) within the Society of Wood Engravers. He applied these skills to illustrating his own books for popular audiences on topics ranging from flowers to birds, beasts and the English countryside. Fluent in German, he translated books from that language to supplement his income in the years succeeding the First World War. He is perhaps best known for his bird books: Woodcuts of British birds, The life story of birds and Birds of the British Isles, but was also a prolific writer about dogs. His oeuvre is examined, and his contribution compared with other contemporary bird artists who embraced wood-engraving techniques. A bibliography of his natural history works as author and as editor is included.

Abstract:
Finch trichomonosis, caused by the protozoal parasite Trichomonas gallinae , was first recognized as an emerging infectious disease of British passerines in 2005. The first year of seasonal epidemic mortality occurred in 2006 with significant declines of greenfinch Carduelis chloris and chaffinch Fringilla coelebs populations. Here, we demonstrate that large-scale mortality, principally of greenfinch, continued in subsequent years, 2007–2009, with a shifting geographical distribution across the British Isles over time. Consequent to the emergence of finch trichomonosis, the breeding greenfinch population in Great Britain has declined from ca 4.3 million to ca 2.8 million birds and the maximum mean number of greenfinches (a proxy for flock size) visiting gardens has declined by 50 per cent. The annual rate of decline of the breeding greenfinch population within England has exceeded 7 per cent since the initial epidemic. Although initially chaffinch populations were regionally diminished by the disease, this has not continued. Retrospective analyses of disease surveillance data showed a rapid, widespread emergence of finch trichomonosis across Great Britain in 2005 and we hypothesize that the disease emerged by T. gallinae jumping from columbiforms to passeriforms. Further investigation is required to determine the continuing impact of finch trichomonosis and to develop our understanding of how protozoal diseases jump host species.

Abstract:
Roots of 23 woody species are described anatomically. They are mostly from species uncommonly planted in the British Isles, and were unavailable at the time the Root Identification Manual of Trees and Shrubs (Cutler et al. 1987) was being written. They were collected from trees blown down in the stonn of October 1987, which uprooted over 15 million trees in the south and east of England. All but one (Tetracentron sinensis) are from the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, or Wakehurst Place.

"Application of the ‘Hess-Brezowsky’ Classification to the Identification of Extreme Precipitations in Northern Part of Moldova."

Abstract:
Due to climate change, important attention was paid to the precipitations amounts over Moldavia's northern part. To point out the rainy air-circulation types was used the ‘Hess-Brezowsy’ Grosswetterlagen system (HBGWL) with 29 types of classifying European synoptic regimes of the 2000 to 2018 period at the reference weather stations of Bacău (184 m), Botoșani (161 m), Ceahlău-Toaca (1897 m), Iași (102 m), and Suceava (350 m). The highest amounts of precipitations annually from 2000 to 2018 in Romania's northeastern part were associated with the retrogressive cyclones. Therefore, on a background of the northeastern, cyclonic type (NEZ), there were recorded 53.45 mm, followed by High Scandinavia-Iceland, the ridge over Central Europe (HNFA), with 48.14 mm, and those from East in cyclonic type, with 44.03 mm. All the high over Central Europe (HM) weather types were associated with the lowest precipitations, only 1.71 mm. Also, small amounts of precipitations in the southwestern and south background, both of them into an anti-cyclonic type (SWA, SA), with 2.56 mm, respectively, 2.92 mm. Semestrial, the most important amounts of precipitations in the northeastern part of Romania were attributed to the retrogressive cyclones in the Eastern part of Romania and the ridges over the northern part of Europe. So, associated with EZ, during the 2000 to 2018 period, in the cold semester were recorded 28.43 mm and 27.66 mm within NEZ. During the warm semester, the highest amounts of precipitations were recorded within the HNFA type, with 42.75 mm, followed by Highs over the British Isles (HB) – 25.44 mm. The lowest values were associated with the southerly and southwesterly, both into an anti-cyclonic type (SA, SWA).
