MoFA excursion in summer 2022

Dear MoFA members and friends of malacology!

For summer and autumn 2022, excursions are planned again. The first one will take us to the WWF-protected area near Marchegg on July 22.
In the renaturalized wetland there are different habitats, from flood ponds to the free-flowing stretches of the Morava River and its tributaries. It is planned to study the area in more detail ( subject to the approval of the WWF), especially with regard to aquatic molluscs. Interesting findings of rare native species (e.g. Theodoxus danubialis, Anisus vorticulus), as well as possibly new records of neozoa (e.g. Clathrocaspia knipowitschii), are expected.
After the excursion there is the possibility to stop at the Forsthaus in Stopfenreuth for food and drinks.

The full-day excursion will take place on Friday, July 22.
The exact meeting place and a detailed program will follow.

Please register soon (indicating if a ride is needed), no later than July 18 at team@molluskenforschung.at.

If the excursion cannot take place due to Corona, an alternative date will be set.

We look forward to your participation!
