Issue:

SCSB, Volume IX

Section:

Volume IX - Amphibians

Abstract:

At the first international congress of herpetology in 1989, the scientists recognised that many amphibian populations are in decline. The main cause of this decline is the destruction of habitats. Main objective of biological conservation is identification of the factors that affect species distribution and abundance at large scale and for a long period. Without this knowledge is impossible to distinguish between the fluctuation of a natural population and the decline of current species due to anthropogenic or other causes. Purpose of the paper is the identification of amphibian species from Ciric River floodplain, their influence and role in anthropogenic habitat.
