Maksimir park is located in the center of Zagreb, and in spite of its small surface (316 he) it has an abundance of plant and animal species. Due to the well preserved centuries-old oak forests and many fresh water areas in the park it is a very important habitat for bat fauna. Members of the Biology student association (BIUS) in cooperation with external experts have found through their research in the spring, summer and autumn periods (with interruptions from 2010. to 2016.), a total of 14 bat species that use this extraordinary habitat. Through the findings of pregnant or lactating females, juvenile and subadult individuals, we can conclude that many species potentially use this area to establish maternal colonies within or near the park (E. serotinus, M. bechsteinii, M. aurascens/mystacinus, N. leisleri, N. noctula, P. nathusii, P. pipistrellus, P. pygmaeus, P. auritus, P. austriacus, R. ferrumequinum). By finding sedentary species such as P. kuhlii (captured individuals) and T. teniotis (eholocation) within the park, we can also conclude that there are pottential colonies of these species in the surrounding area in the city. The findings of both male and female rarely caught migratory M. daubentonii species also points out the great significance of Maksimir park. Additional exploration of bat fauna (mistnetting and echolocation signal analisies) within the city of Zagreb is needed in order to pinpoint all potential locations of colonies of these highly protected animals. |
