It is known that today in the field of feeding animals and poultry, the use of dietary supplements, or premixes, is relevant. However, it should be noted that the premix quality mainly depends on the filler. Due to the above, the authors have performed comprehensive studies of the possibility to use fodder concentrate and the Sarepta vegetable raw material as a filler in the composition of premixes for cattle and poultry diets. In studying the nutritional value and the technological properties, the new filler was favorably different from the one traditionally used (sunflower meal). In the course of the research of using premixes and protein vitamin-mineral concentrates with the new filler in the composition of the fodder for agricultural animals and poultry, the following positive results were obtained: during the main period of experiment, milk yield of the dairy cows increased by 7.40 %; milk quality also improved, the value of byproducts from a single animal amounted to 4,928 rubles; the live weight of the dairy calves increased by the age of six months by 1.7 %, which amounted to 7,560 rubles of additional growth; during the period of experiment, egg productivity of the laying hens increased by up to 1.73 %, and the economic effect was 1,142.73 rubles; the live weight of the broiler chickens increased by 10.2 %, the slaughter yield of carcasses increased by 1.9 %, with that, the additional profit per animal was about 55.51 rubles. Based on the comprehensive research, one can recommend introducing the premix with the Sarepta concentrate to the diets of cattle and poultry to increase their productivity, improving product quality and economic efficiency of the livestock breeding industry and poultry production.

We use the expressions of “numbers” and “quantities” in the process of communicating in everyday life. When we look at the language of everyday life, Objective quantity is frequently used, but the expression of quantification in linguistics is more comprehensive and diverse. Therefore, Subjective quantity expressions are also categorized into Quantity categories of expressions. The linguistic characteristics of Chinese have many quantifiers, and also have overlapping expressions of nouns, verbs, and adjectives. Through this, it can be seen that the Chinese people are using various expressions of number and quantity in language. For this reason, studying the expression of number and quantity is another way of understanding Chinese and Chinese people. The purpose of this paper is to analyze Chinese people how to use the number and quantity in the proverb. Our research based on two concepts of “objective quantity” and “subjective quantity”.

Study on Meaning and Symbolic Representation of “Hujeonghwa” among Old Poetries of Korea and China
Authors:   The Society For Chinese Humanities In Korea, JEON MYOUNGSUN
Published: September 2019

The terminology Hujeonghwa is often found in the works. The terminology is also the same as the name of a plant, which has a straight and thick stem. The objective of this article was to identify meaning and symbolic representation of Hujeonghwa in works and how it has been used. Chengfuwang said, “In the ancient Chinese aesthetics, meaning and symbolic representation means the subject of aesthetics. The status of it roughly corresponds to the “shape” in the modern aesthetics. This article will consider that, following the opinion of Chengfuwang, meaning and symbolic representation consists of “meaning” and “symbolic representation”. In other words, it is understood as “the symbol in the mind that an artist intends to express.” Hujeonghwa is a piece of music “Oksuhujeonghwa” composed by Chen shubao, and his retainers. This music appeared in “樂府詩集Vol. 47” compiled by Northem Song Dynasty Guo Maoqian for the first time. Chen shubao held a banquet every day and recited poems. He chose the most beautiful poem among them and made a piece of music for it. The country was collapsed by Sui Dynasty because the country got hooked on booze, women, pleasure, and lust. Thereby, it is said that “later generations called it “the typical ‘music ruining a nation’” Poets expressed their intention and the symbols in their mind using this piece of music as “meaning and symbolic representation”. This article examined what poets (e.g., Liu Yuxi, Du Mu, Li Shangyin, and Xu Hun of Tang Dynasty, Chiwon Choi of Silla Dynasty, and Inro Lee and Gyubok Lee Goryeo Dynasty, and Gi Yoon and Yoowon Lee Joseon Dynasty) wanted to express using “Hujeonghwa” or “Oksuhujeonghwa” as “meaning and symbolic representation”.

Dai Wangshu, one of the most artistic and most penetrating poets among Chinese poets since the May 4th Patriotic Movement, is the representative figure of Chinese modernist symbolism poetry. He inherits the luster of the artistic conception of Chinese classical literature, and adopts the symbolic conception of the French symbolism, to create the modernist poetic style. His masterpiece A Lane in the Rain, based on the inheritance of Chinese classical euphemistic poetry style, creates a picturesque lyric space with symbolic images, and naturally reveals the inner world between the lines, making the readers have artistic resonance while feeling the beauty of the poetry and merging with the poet. This thesis, taking A Lane in the Rain as the research text, explores the artistic conception of Dai Wangshu's poetry. This thesis firstly explains the artistic conception and the beauty of artistic conception, and subsequently, specifically explores the beauty of artistic conception of Dai Wangshu's poetry in A Lane in the Rain from the two aspects of flowing pictures and the perfect combination of symbolic images.

So far, in many “history of modern Chinese literature”, the new poetry has called it a ‘hybrid’ born out of the influence of the West. However, the beginning activities related to the folk songs in the early stage of the new poetry gave new and changes in the process of the spontaneous growth of the new poetry, and felt the difficulties while homogenizing in the songs, and gained a lot of inspiration from it. This thesis expounds the necessity of studying the relationship between new poetry and folk songs, and steps on how to conduct research, and divides the inspiration part of the new poems in folk songs into the part to investigate. First, the new poetry and the folk songs are connected in the characteristics of ‘spoken language’. They are mainly spoken and have similarities in language, form and content. It is worth mentioning that the spoken language with dialect elements has a close relationship with the advanced posture of literature and art. Second, life has a vision. This rhythm is not to re-create a new rhythm, nor to say that all rhythms should not be used, but to use ‘the rhyme of the native sound’ and ‘the rhyme of nature’. Third, It emphasizes the poetic feeling. Zhou Zuoren(周作人), Liu Bannong(劉半農), and Yu Pingbo(兪平伯) all emphasized these features, saying that the poetic feeling Activates, it should not be writed and should never be writed in ordinary times. Many critics have a negative view of the relationship between new poetry and folk song, but the new poet found the folk song again in the transition period between the new and the old, and tried to join and improve the tradition in a new way. What can not be denied is that the folk songs has become a ‘small tradition’ of poetry, and has provided the possibility of improvement to the poetry.

In order to analyze the Hanwen Yuandian(漢文原典) which refers to the original Chinese character text, the following conditions must be confirmed. First, the exact meaning that was used amongst the many meanings of the actual Chinese character within the context of the sentence must be checked. Second, not only are Chinese characters an independent language entity, they are also devoid of hierarchy and format and must be interpreted only through word order. As such, the components of the actual sentence structure must be checked to see if it is correctly aligned. Third, the Chinese character itself is an ideograph but in many cases, it has a lot of borrowed meaning from elsewhere. So, an additional careful scrutiny must be made to see if it can be interpreted in relation to sound. In this paper, the fundamental meaning of the Chinese character ‘Jiang(將)’ was taken under scrutiny and various meanings that have originated from it were looked into. Several deductions were made in conclusion as a result of this. The character ‘Jiang(將)’ was found not only to be used just as an adverb or verb, but was actually being used as an introductory word(介詞) and even a postpositional particle(助詞). Here lies the problem as most translators were seen to commit the error of translating the character with the mistaken assumption that it always has a lexical meaning. Based on the findings of this paper, it is strongly urged that other Chinese characters other than the ‘Jiang(將)’ should be scrutinized in a similar way. The Chinese character ‘得’ especially is a character that occupies an important position in the modern Chinese language(近代漢語) and contemporary Chinese language(現代漢語) and should be given further emphasis.
Food Self-Sufficiency and Food Security at the National and Local Level In India.
Authors: Md. Parvis Abu Reja
Published: September 2019

The Indian planners, right from the beginning, realized the need to attain self-sufficiency in food grains as one of the important goals of planning. The government realized that food surplus countries used their food-surplus as a weapon to force food deficit countries to submit to their dictates. Food security implies access by all people at all times to sufficient of food to lead an active and healthy life. P.V. Srinivasan states that food security requires not just adequate supply of food at the aggregate level but also enough purchasing capacity with the individual/household to demand adequate levels of food. The Ninth Plan discussed the problem of food security at national and at the household level. The Planning Commission states: “An approach to national food security, which relies largely on domestic production of food needed for consumption as well as for building buffer stocks, can be described as a strategy of self-sufficiency.” This strategy emphasized the extension of irrigation facilities and later in the sixties adopted seed-water-fertilizer technology popularly known as Green Revolution. As a consequence of these concerted efforts, India was able to avert famines and acute food scarcities, yet it has not been able to provide food “needed for an active and healthy life” to its population. At the household level, food security implies having physical and economic access to food articles that are adequate in terms of quantity, quality and affordability. This raises the question of prices of food articles and the purchasing power in the hand of population. To help the poor sections, the government introduced the Public Distribution System (PDS) and adopted dual price mechanism. At the PDS outlet, the issue price of food articles was kept lower than the market price to enable the poor to purchase subsidized food, but due to political pressure, the government adopted a universal PDS, rather than a targeted PDS focused on the poor.

Wegen des umfangreichen Bestands an musikwissenschaftlicher Literatur zur Reihenmusik stellt es kein leichtes Unterfangen dar, eine Einführung in diese Kompositionstechnik zu geben.1 Die Schwierigkeit beginnt bereits bei der Benennung des Gegenstands. Will man ganz allgemein von Reihentechnik oder Reihenmusik sprechen oder bevorzugt man den präziseren Terminus Zwölftonmusik alias Dodekaphonie? Oder nennt man sie, Arnold Schönberg zitierend, „Methode der Komposition mit zwölf nur aufeinander bezogenen Tönen“ (Schönberg 1989: 151)?
Musik und Politik im faschistischen Italien.
Authors: Bochmann Minari
Published: September 2019

Der italienische Faschismus bestand aus einer vielschichtigen Struktur, die sich allen zeitgenössischen Musikströmungen näherte. Diese Arbeit befasst sich mit den für den italienischen Faschismus spezifischen Voraussetzungen. Das Jahr 1938 markiert in der italienischen Musikentwicklung eine Zäsur. Die erste musica impegnata Italiens, die zur musikalischen Begriffserneuerung in der Nachkriegszeit entscheidend beitrug, wurde anlässlich der antisemitischen Gesetzgebungen in Italien von Luigi Dallapiccola komponiert. Durch Dallapiccolas Komposition bekam die Reihentechnik in der italienischen Kompositionspraxis immer mehr Bedeutung und etablierte sich im Laufe der Zeit als Stimme des Antifaschismus. In dieser Arbeit wird der Verbreitungsprozess der Reihentechnik in Italien nicht nur aus ästhetischer Perspektive, sondern auch aus gesellschaftspolitischer betrachtet.
Transnationale Netzwerke als Instrument für die lokale Entwicklung informeller Siedlungen.
Authors: Ginzel Beate
Published: September 2019

Die Defizite in der Wohnraum- und Infrastrukturversorgung in Städten vieler Entwicklungsländer sind ein Zeichen dafür, dass die konventionellen Strategien und Instrumente zur Armutsreduzierung nicht ausreichend greifen. Infolgedessen wurden in den letzten Jahren verstärkt von internationalen Organisationen und Behörden neue Governanceformen mit stärkerer Beteiligung von zivilgesellschaftlichen Organisationen1 gefordert. Im Zentrum der Forschungsarbeit steht die Frage nach den Wirkungsweisen und der Wirksamkeit des Instruments transnationaler Netzwerke von Basisorganisationen2 für die lokale Entwicklung marginalisierter Siedlungen in Städten von Entwicklungsländern. Mit den Erkenntnissen soll die in der Governanceforschung vertretene These von der zunehmenden Relevanz politischer (staatlicher, halbstaatlicher, privater) Netzwerke und der Notwendigkeit einer stärkeren Einbindung der lokalen Bevölkerung bestätigt sowie Potenziale von transnationalen Netzwerken für die Entwicklung von informellen Siedlungen untersucht werden. Die vorliegende Projektskizze erläutert den aktuellen Stand der Erkenntnisse.

Kontaktzonen liefern den (biologischen, geographischen, kulturellen, sozialen etc.) Rahmen, in dem diese Reaktionen ablaufen.
Christliche Identität in einer nichtchristlichen Welt – Kontakte zwischen Christen und ihrer Umwelt am Beispiel von Tertullians Schrift De Idololatria
Authors: Gerstacker Andreas
Published: September 2019

Angesichts einer Welt, die in fast allen Lebensbereichen von der Götterverehrung durchzogen war, hatte die Frage nach der Notwendigkeit und Reichweite der Abgrenzung für Christen der ersten Jahrhunderte sehr große Bedeutung. Am Beispiel der Schrift De idololatria Tertullians soll dieser Frage für einige prägnante »Kontaktzonen « im Karthago des späten zweiten und frühen dritten Jahrhunderts nachgegangen werden. Dabei wird sich zeigen, dass die Notwendigkeit der Abgrenzung unumstritten, die Frage nach deren Reichweite und genauer Umsetzung aber Anlass für sehr kontroverse Diskussionen war.
Austausch, Abgrenzung und Transformationen
Authors: Grob Anne

Anfang der 70er Jahre entstand in den USA ein Bildungsmodell, das die bisherige Hochschullandschaft dieses Landes entscheidend ergänzen sollte. Indigen geleitete Hochschulen, sog. Tribal Colleges bieten seither der kleinsten Minorität in den USA, American Indians, die Möglichkeit einer kulturell relevanten Hochschulbildung. Aufgrund ihrer dualen Stuktur die sowohl Merkmale indigener als auch westlich geprägter Wissenssysteme aufweist, ist eine Untersuchung mit Blick auf die Prozesse des Austausches, der Abgrenzung und der Transformationen besonders ergiebig. Im Folgenden werden sie am Beispiel einer konkreten tribalen Universität aufgezeigt und erklärt.
Corpus delicti – der Körper als Tatwerkzeug Märtyreroperationen im irakischen Kontext
Authors: Günther Christoph
Published: September 2019

In der öffentlichen Auseinandersetzung mit extrem-islamistischem Terrorismus ist die Bedrohung durch sog. Selbstmordanschläge sehr präsent. Trotz des Verbotes der Selbsttötung im Koran werden diese religiös begründet, der Tod als Belohnung propagiert und den Aspiranten im Paradies ein besseres Leben verheißen. Dies geht einher mit einer heroisierenden Inszenierung derjenigen, die ihr Leben im Kampf gegen die vermeintlichen Feinde des Islams ließen, weshalb wir in diesem Zusammenhang von modernen Märtyrermythen sprechen können. Für die paramilitärische Strategie extrem-islamistischer Gruppierungen sind Sprengstoffanschläge mittels Selbsttötungen mittlerweile ein fester Bestandteil und auch das Bild der Kampfhandlungen in den westlichen Medien wird seit dem Einmarsch der Koalitionsarmeen in den Irak 2003 vor allem durch bestimmt.

Australian Angst – das Thema des Terrorismus in Richard Flanagans „The Unknown Terrorist“
Authors: Dallmann Tino
Published: September 2019

Schon lange vor den Anschlägen am 11. September 2001 hat sich die Literatur mit dem Terrorismus beschäftigt. Zahlreiche Romanautoren haben versucht, die Ursachen terroristischer Gewalt zu beschreiben und sind dabei Fragen der gesellschaftlichen Situation und der nationalen Identität nachgegangen. In der Bundesrepublik der 1970er Jahre hat sich vor allem Heinrich Böll kritisch zum Geschehen seiner Zeit geäußert. In dieser Tradition steht der australische Schriftsteller Richard Flanagan, der in The Unknown Terrorist an eine Erzählung Bölls anknüpft und eine Gesellschaft beschreibt, die vor allem durch ein Gefühl bestimmt ist: das Gefühl der Angst.

In recent years, scholars of modern and contemporary Chinese religion have turned their attention to the subject of “redemptive societies”, a term coined by Prasenjit Duara in 2001 to refer to groups such as the Yiguandao, the Daoyuan, the Tongshanshe , the Wushanshe, and others which had a major socio-religious impact during the Republican period. Spiritually authoritative or sacred texts play a number of crucial roles within redemptive societies. First and foremost, of course, they record and codify a redemptive society’s beliefs and rituals and are thus key sources for the analysis of these aspects of a specific religious system. As obvious as this may appear, such analyses have not been carried out for many of these texts, which more commonly serve as quarries in which to collect data on the organizational structure or social and political history of a particular group. Research that takes the doctrinal systems encoded in modern redemptive societies’ sacred texts seriously has been fairly rare. We have therefore put together an international team of scholars from Europe, Taiwan, Canada, China, Hong Kong, and Japan to focus on the textual and contextual histories of redemptive societies, with an eye toward giving their past – and their future – the attention they deserve.

Der vorliegende Beitrag im Rahmen der Leipziger Promotionsvorträge stellt das Promotionsvorhaben der Autorin vor, in dem die Rezeptionsprozesse von Daten resultierend aus der externen Evaluation an Schulen untersucht werden. An das Instrument der externen Evaluation zur wissensbasierten Steuerung von Schule werden hohe Wirkungserwartungen seitens der Bildungsverwaltung geknüpft. Gegenüber diesen Erwartungen gibt es trotz erster Untersuchungen immer noch wenige Erkenntnisse über die (nicht-) intendierten Reaktionen und Effekte von externen Evaluationen (vgl. Ehren/Visscher 2006). In diesem Beitrag werden in einer einleitenden theoretischen Kontextualisierung der Dissertation die Fokussierung auf die Einzelschule und das externe Schulbesuchsverfahren vorgestellt. Anschließend werden die neuen Anforderungen an Lehrkräfte, die aus den Schulentwicklungsprozessen resultieren, herausgearbeitet. Sodann wird der Aufbau der Untersuchung dargelegt. Danach werden erste Ergebnistendenzen präsentiert. Nach einem abschließenden Resümee wird ein Ausblick gegeben.

Atheisten in religiöser Gesellschaft
Authors: Klug Petra
Published: September 2019

Religion als Konfliktquelle ist eines der zentralen Themen des beginnenden 21. Jahrhunderts. In Anbetracht dessen, dass im Zentrum religiöser Kämpfe oft nicht eine andere Religion, sondern das Säkulare steht, ist erstaunlich wie wenig Aufmerksamkeit dem Zusammenleben von Religiösen und Nichtreligiösen bisher geschenkt wird. In stark religiös durchdrungenen Gesellschaften stellen Atheisten bzw. Menschen, die nicht religiös sind, häufig eine marginalisierte und teils verfolgte Minderheit dar. Selbst in einer religiös pluralen Gesellschaft wie den USA leiden Atheisten oft unter gesellschaftlichem Ausschluss. Der Beitrag wird auf der Basis von qualitativen Interviews und eingebettet in einen Überblick über typische Formen des Umgangs zwischen Atheisten und ihrem religiösen Umfeld in den USA die Konfliktlinien zwischen den beiden Gruppen nachzeichnen und dabei besonders auf die Auseinandersetzung um die Wahrheit und die legitimen Quellen des Wissens eingehen.

New Regionalisms in a Changing Global Order
Authors: Dietze Antje
Published: September 2019

Regionalismen sind wesentlicher Bestandteil einer sich verändernden globalen Weltordnung, in der verschiedene Formen der Verräumlichung miteinander interagieren und konkurrieren. Seit Ende des Kalten Krieges ist eine wachsende Vielfalt von Akteuren zu beobachten, die sich an der Bildung und Aushandlung von Regionen beteiligen. Neben regionalen Organisationen, die von Nationalstaaten vorangetrieben werden, treten auch immer mehr private Akteure mit eigenen und oft widerstreitenden regionalen Projekten auf. Das Forschungsprojekt untersucht die dynamische Entwicklung und Komplexität der „Neuen Regionalismen“ aus verschiedenen Blickwinkeln und in vergleichender Perspektive. Dabei nimmt es zwei Weltregionen in den Blick, die in der bisherigen Forschung eher im Abseits standen: Zentral- und Südamerika sowie Afrika. In empirisch fundierten Studien werden unterschiedliche Akteurskonstellationen jenseits einer staatszentrierten Engführung des Governance-Begriffs erforscht. Zugleich gilt das Interesse den Beziehungen, Wechselwirkungen und Konkurrenzverhältnissen, die zwischen verschiedenen Regionalismen bestehen.

Denjenigen Theaterformen, die gemeinhin unter dem Namen Commedia dell’Arte, Commedia all’improvviso, Comédie italienne oder Théâtre de la Foire bekannt sind, erweist sich ein Verfahren als grundlegend, das mit dem Erzählen von anderen Welten umschrieben werden kann. Auf der Basis mythischer Figuren und Maschere erzählten Akteure in der Tradition des souveränen Schauspielers von anderen, jenseitigen, exotischen Welten. Aus dieser Perspektive wurden die Normen, Regeln, Zwänge, Werte, Tabus dieser, der ›eigentlichen‹ Welt, spielerisch hinterfragt und relativiert. Nach dem jeweils unterschiedlichen historischen Kontext wurde ein bestimmter Aspekt dieser anderen Welt hervorgehoben: gegen Ende des 17. und zu Beginn des 18. Jahrhunderts in Paris die Vorstellung, der Traum eines Lebens ohne Theater.

El ozono es un gas incoloro beneficioso o nocivo para la salud en función de su ubicación en las capas de la atmósfera: el ozono estratosférico, localizado entre 12 km y 50 km de la superficie terrestre, forma una capa protectora de la radiación ultravioleta solar. A él se hace referencia al hablar del “agujero de la capa de ozono”. Sin embargo, el ozono troposférico localizado en la par-te de la atmósfera donde se desarrolla la vida humana es perjudicial para la salud. Se forma a partir de contaminantes emitidos por automóviles, centrales térmicas, refinerías, procesos industriales diversos, etc., en presencia de luz solar. Las altas temperaturas y la irradiación solar favorecen su producción. Por eso, sus niveles alcanzan los valores máximos durante el verano.

The method of geodetic control of the road pavement using TLS is presented. The use of the terrestrial laser scanner can avoid some of the disadvantages of classical methods for determining the deformation of objects. One of the main of them is a small amount of information about the position of individual parts of the object, in this case, linear engineering structures. The proposed technique for terrestrial laser scanning of pavement in order to determine its actual spatial position and real geometric shape allows to perform the required set of works with the least labor and time costs, and also to obtain data for further monitoring. The technique involves the construction of a three-dimensional model of pavement for its evaluation over a certain time interval with a similar model. In order to determine the coordinates by the TLS, the special spheres of known diameter were used. During the measurements, tribrachs on tripods were used, in which the spheres alternately changed to reflectors to eliminate the centering error. The accuracy of determining the coordinates of the temporary survey network relative to the base station was no more than ±27 mm. The accuracy estimation of the temporary survey network coordinates made in the “LeicaGeoOffice” software is presented. The network of permanent stations in Ukraine was used to determine the coordinates, the errors were calculated as the RMS deviation.

Industrial equipment is a dynamic system that deforms during installation (assembly) and during operation. Under the influence of variable load and mixing of the center of gravity of the equipment and foundations on which it is installed, uneven horizontal and vertical displacements occur, therefore individual equipment elements are unevenly deformed, which can lead to poor performance or stoppage of this equipment. Timely measurement of the displacement of certain points of equipment (deformations) of precision equipment with the help of geodetic and other methods and their correct use for correcting the geometry of the equipment will contribute to improving the operational properties and increasing the period of uninterrupted operation of equipment’s, for example, precision conveyor lines for assembling cars.

This paper investigates whether faith has impact on investment returns. Specifically, we choose the Shariah compliance and REITs investment for the purpose of investigation. Synthetic Shariah compliant portfolios are constructed with various interpretation of compliance. We compare the performance of Shariah compliant portfolios with US Equity REIT portfolio during 1993–2017 by examining the abnormal returns using CAPM and Carhart four-factor model. We find no evidence of underperformance or outperformance of the Shariah compliant investments. This is also true during the financial crisis periods which is confirmed by the sub-sample analysis. Our findings suggest that Shariah compliant REIT investor faces no cost or gain in his investments as a result of his faith.
COOPERATIVE AND NON-COOPERATIVE R&D IN PRODUCT INNOVATION AND FIRM PERFORMANCE
Authors: Karbowski Adam
Published: September 2019

The aim of this article is to investigate the impacts of cooperative and non-cooperative R&D strategies on product innovation and firm performance. Based on the industrial economics literature and the optimisation model, R&D competition, R&D cartelisation, and full industry cartelisation strategies of firms operating on a market with differentiated goods and simultaneous price and quality competition are considered. It is showed that R&D cartelisation entails a loss of firm’s product innovation compared with R&D competition. However, profit-maximising firms do not prefer the R&D competition strategy. They prefer to pursue either R&D cartelisation or full industry cartelisation strategies, depending on the elasticity of demand with respect to the firm’s investment in R&D. The social cost of R&D cartelisation is a loss of product innovation, and the social cost of full industry cartelisation is both the loss of product innovation and the loss of consumer surplus due to a relatively high price and low output of the final product. The latter results carry significant implications for the modern business and public policy.

This study aimed at clarifying the species composition and ecological structure of carabid communities, in oilseed rape fields after rape harvest. Field work was carried out in 2018. Pitfall traps (5 in each site) were set in 10 sampling sites in Thracean Lowland and Sarnena Sredna Gora Mts. Captured beetles belonged to 66 species and 24 genera, representing 9% of the species and 19% of the ground beetle genera occurring in Bulgaria. The most diverse was genus Harpalus Latreille, 1802 (15 species), followed by the genera Amara Zimmermann, 1832 (7 species), Microlestes Schmidt-Goebel, 1846 (6 species) and Parophonus Ganglbauer, 1891 (5 species). Five species were new for the region of the Thracean Lowland: Amara (Bradytus) consularis (Duftschmid, 1812), Harpalus (Harpalus) caspius (Steven, 1806), H. (Pseudoophonus) calceatus (Duftschmid, 1812), Microlestes negrita negrita (Wollaston, 1854), Tachyura (Tachyura) parvula (Dejean, 1831). Three species: Amara (Zezea) fulvipes (Audinet-Serville, 1821), A. (Zezea) chaudoiri incognita Fassati, 1946 and Diachromus germanus (Linnaeus, 1758) were new records for the region of the Sarnena Gora. Seven species were new for the whole Sredna Gora Mts.: Acinopus (Acinopus) picipes (Olivier, 1795), A. (Oedematicus) megacephalus (P. Rossi, 1794), Carterus (Carterus) dama (P. Rossi, 1792), Harpalus (Harpalus) flavicornis flavicornis Dejean, 1829, H. (Pseudoophonus) griseus (Panzer, 1796), Licinus (Licinus) depressus (Paykull, 1790) and Microlestes maurus maurus (Sturm, 1827). Genera Acinopus Dejean, 1821, Carterus Dejean, 1830 and Licinus Latreille, 1802 were new geographic records for the Sredna Gora Mts. Twelve life form categories were established (7 zoophagous and 6 mixophytophagous). The analysis of the life forms showed a slight predominance of the mixophytophages (38 species; 58%) over the zoophages (28 species; 42%). There were no constant species occurring in all sampling sites (with 100% occurrence). Thirteen species appeared after the harvest (they were absent during the flowering and ripening of the rape), forty-four species disappeared (they were present during flowering and ripening), and twenty-nine species were present in all stages.

Published: September 2019

During a long-term study (2003-2007) of the chironomids in Vaya Lake 27 taxons were established. There were determined 18 species belonged to 11 genera. These results were compared to the only ones so far provided by Zashev and Angelov 1958. There is a complete change in the species composition of the Chironomidae compared with the results obtained in the period 1953-1957, which is mainly related to the increased anthropogenic impact on the lake and the changed connection with the Black Sea.
