| Abstract |
|
Data on distribution of Emys orbicularis in the South Urals (Bashkortostan, Orenburg and Chelyabinsk regions of Russia) are summarized and some population biology data are presented. It is thought that the European pond turtle inhabits at present the basins of the Ural and Belaya rivers and that the northern distribution border can be drawn along the line Buguruslan – Abdulino – Fyodorovka – Meleuz – Zilair – Sibay – Bredy. Turtles occur sporadically throughout the Republic of Bashkortostan and the Chelyabinsk region, but to the south, in the Orenburg region, the species is locally abundant. A general range regression and decrease of population density in the South Urals is probably caused by habitat fragmentation and environmental changes, as well as by increasing direct anthropogenic pressure.
