1.1. Romania (RO) borders Ukraine in the north and east, Moldavia in the north-east, the Black Sea in the southeast, Bulgaria in the south, Serbia in the south-west and Hungary in the north-west. A population of approx. 21.7 million people is spread rather equally on 237,499 sq. km, with a very low density (93 people/sq.mile). Bucharest is the capital city, with a population of 2.06 million people. The country comprises 9 historical regions: Bukovina [Bucovina], Moldavia [Moldova], Transylvania…

Anterior lateral eyes of Lycosa tarantula (Araneae: Lycosidae) are used during orientation to detect changes in the visual structure of the substratum
- BiologyJournal of Experimental Biology
- 2011
The first evidence that spiders can use the visual structure of the substratum to return home is presented, suggesting that, when homing, L. tarantula uses both idiothetic information and visual information gathered through ALEs.
A review of long‐distance movements by marine turtles, and the possible role of ocean currents
- Environmental Science
- 2003
Major oceanographic processes (such as main currents and eddies) have been recently shown to have a remarkable influence on leatherback movements, making it questionable whether these journeys are to be considered migrations or, rather, prolonged stays in vast feeding areas.
