abstract |
The article describes the findings of dormice (Gliridae, cf. Glis glis) in the territory of the National Botanical Garden of the NAS of Ukraine in Kyiv, located in the green zone of the Dnipro high bank slopes. There were three finds in total, all in the first half of the 1990s, all in autumn and winter, and all in the territory of the Vydubychi Monastery, from the side of a hornbeam grove. Two records came from a building and one record was a discovery of a hibernating dormouse in the leaves next to the building. The latter finding resulted in keeping the animal in captivity from November to May, during which time there was a three-fold increase in its body weight, which confirms the autumn breeding. Analysis of these data suggests the presence of a stable dormouse population in the area. |
