4. Source Week 2010: Interim report

In July, the fourth spring week was held in Gesäuse National Park. In addition to follow-up examinations at selected sources, various samples were also taken in this context at remote source habitats. The report contains an overview list of the sources examined, the course of fieldwork and documents the results. In the sense of an overall overview of the Limno fauna of the National Park, a thorough examination of streams and stillwaters would be highly interesting. Each of these habitats deserved their own project. The first data collected in 2010 could, as pioneer studies, provide the basis for such special projects, a partial analysis of the importance of such additional studies for the knowledge of species in the park. Based on the yield of the four spring weeks, an overall overview of the source fauna of the national park will be developed and published in the coming months.
