Common dormouse in small isolated woods: In: Natura Croatica, Vol. 6, No. 2 (1997), pp. 271-274; Language: English; Notes: Proceedings of IIIrd International Conference on Dormice, Mošćenička Draga, Croatia, 9-12th October 1996; Abstract: Common dormice in small isolated woods were studied in 1996 in Saxony (Germany). These woodlands were isolated for 150 years and there were no connecting structures between them. 215 nestboxes were put up and 75 live traps were used for capturing dormice. Animals were marked by ear-tattooing. There were 141 captures of common dormice, and 41 adults and 30 juveniles were marked. It seems that dormice do live isolated, but without genetic exchange they would not be able to survive. Hedgerows can be helpful as connecting structures during the possible migrations.

Distribution and ecological requirements of dormouse species occurring in Hungary: In: Natura Croatica, Vol. 7, No. 1 (1998), pp. 1-9; Language: English; Abstract: The distribution of three Hungarian dormouse species (Muscardinus avellanarius, Myoxus glis, Dryomys nitedula) is shown. The authors compare their data with maps of natural vegetation of Hungary, and indicate the original habitat requirements for each species. According to this, the most common and most adaptive species is Muscardinus avellanarius.
The authors also examined human affected habitats using live-traps at 12 sites in the country during 1995 and 1996. The hazel dormouse provided the largest number of captures, natural habitats were mostly inhabited by the fat dormouse and the forest dormouse was the rarest in traps and occurred in human affected habitats only.

Animals were captured in a larch woodland at 1600 m of altitude, inside the Val Troncea Natural Park (Piedmont region, Turin district). Garden dormice were trapped using 144 Sherman live traps, from May to September, during 1995-96. A total of 44 animals was marked. The high number of first recaptures occurred one or two nights after the implanting of the PIT tags and allows us to think that the animals did not modify their behaviour for the marking experience.

Social organization, home range and movement of the Garden dormouse Eliomys quercinus: In: Natura Croatica, Vol. 6, No. 3 (1997), pp. 303-312; Language: English; Abstract: In order to provide information on the ecology of the garden dormouse in the alpine habitat, a field study was started in 1995 using the capture-recapture method. The research was carried out in the Val Troncea Natural Park, situated in the Western Alps (Piedmont region, Turin district). During the two yera study, 30 adults and 23 juveniles were caught: 14 adults and 9 juveniles in 1995, 20 adults (four of them were also caught in 1995) and 14 juveniles in 1996. The mean movement of adults during one night was about 50 m, with a peak of 209 m. Differences through the months were not significant, for neither males nor females. Males appeared to be more mobile than females, especially in August. Movements during the trapping period showed the same pattern for males: they were little in June and increased in August. Home ranges were greater for males (mean 0.8 ha, N=2) than females (mean 0.62 ha, N=%); a female not reproductive exhibited a bigger range (1.04 ha). Adults resindent in the study area frequented the same part of the grid in 1995 and 1996.

Sexual activity and reproduction in three feral subpopulations of the fat dormouse (Myoxus glis): In: Natura Croatica, Vol. 6, No. 2 (1997), pp. 205-216; Language: English; Notes: Proceedings of IIIrd International Conference on Dormice, Mošćenička Draga, Croatia, 9-12th October 1996; Abstract: Population-ecology and reproduction in three subpopulations of the fat dormouse (Myoxus glis Linné, 1766) were studied in central Germany in the years 1992 and 1993. Animals were captured in wooden livetraps twice a month, during trapping-periods lasting three days, and marked individually by tattooing. Surprisingly, after a year with good reproductive success (1992), a total lack of reproduction was observed in all three areas in 1993. Reproductive failure coincided with an lack of food resources in fall 1993. Presumably, bad weather conditions or predictive environmental signals, such as missing flower buds in the dry spring of 1993, prevented gonadal development in males.

More than 20000 nestbox checks were made, finding about 5000 dormice. The numbers of dormice and their demographic composition markedly changed as the annual season progressed. The number of dormice in reached the maximum in September: the dormice occupying 30-40% of all nestboxes. There was a positive relationship between the occupancy of nestboxes and density of undergrowth. Dormice preferred nestboxes established at the height of 4m. Preference was also given to wooden nestboxes. The dormice compete with birds, the yellow-necked mouse, fat dormouse and social insects.

During the study 374 breeding females were captured and 319 litters found. In Lithuania the breeding season occupies nearly the whole summer period, and adult females may have two litters per season. Mean litter size was 3.9 +- 0.I juveniles (n = 319) and it depends upon the age of females. The largest litters were detected in May, the smallest in July.

The home range of a male was larger than that of a female, and they overlapped. The adult female remains in her home range for several years and has litters, while the young female moves from the mother's home range. The Japanese dormouse eats bark, pollen and insects. It sometimes saved food as food-cache in autumn.

The species is still confined to a relatively restricted area. Its legal status is confused, being both legally protected, but at the same time an alien species and significant pest. Licences may be granted to trap Glis, but they may not then be released into the wild because they are not a native species in Britain. The total British population is unlikely to be less than 10,000. Nobody seems to be regularly monitoring Glis in Britain, but some small studies have now begun aimed at understanding more about population density, movements and potential ways of controlling this animal.

The level of activity was measured in terms of the percentage of time spent by an animal out of the nest, with 24-hour period taken as 100%. Air temperatures were measured in the course of the research. The dormice were shown to be mainly active at night, though with limited daytime activity. The close relationship between level of activity and mean 24-hour temperature was established.

The use of caves by the edible dormouse (Myoxus glis) in the Slovenian karst: In: Natura Croatica, Vol. 6, No. 3 (1997), pp. 313-321; Language: English; Abstract: During field research on the Slovene high southern plateau, we collected data on the presence of edible dormouse in 43 caves. Field research was undertaken for such signs of dormice in the caves as runs, droppings, hair and dead animals. Additional records are based on direct observations of live animals. In the majority of cases, caves which reveal the obvious presence of dormice are not accessible to the stone marten. The droppings and even bodies of edible dormice in the caves might be an important nutrient imput for troglobionts. According to its frequent occurrence in a cave habitat, we can classify the edible dormouse as a cave dwelling animal.

The fat dormouse Myoxus glis as a natural host of medically important microorganisms: In: Natura Croatica, Vol. 6, No. 2 (1997), pp. 253-262; Language: English with Croatian summary; Notes: Proceedings of IIIrd International Conference on Dormice, Mošćenička Draga, Croatia, 9-12th October 1996; Abstract: Fat dormouse (Myoxus glis) was examined as a potential host of hantaviruses and rickettsiae. 98 animals were collected from three different regions in Slovenia (Godovic, Metlika, Sneznik). Serological methods were used for detection of specific viral and/or rickesttsial antibodies in animal sera samples. With the PCR method and restriction enzyme digestion, viral and rickettsial genomes were examined. Myoxus glis was confirmed as a host of Hantaan virus. The prevalence of hantaviral infection among the population of Myoxus glis was� 13.3%. It was established that animal age plays a role in the probability of infection with hantaviruses, but not the sex. Rickettsial infection was not confirmed in Myoxus glis with any of the methods used.

The number of captured animals was 463, 118 were trapped for the first time, 345 animals were recaptured. Normal seasonal activity of the population was from April to October in 1993. Newborn animals entered the population in 1993, 1995 and 1996 only in July. Radio tracking results showed a correlation of activity and sun rhythm, a behaviour which is already described for edible dormouse and hazel dormouse.

Food preferrence, wieght increase and beginning of torpor bouts were studied. The mean of the longest torpor bouts was calculated for the two undisturbed species, Muscardinus and Eliomys, and it was significantly inversely correlated with body weight.
