Analysis of plant communities composition and small mammals components in town park Ilidža.
During the year of 2005, a systematic research was undertaken with an objective to calculate a number of small mammal species in the town area. One of the many explored sites was the town park Ilidža. During the spring and summer season of 2005, the traps with the Trapist cheese and chicken were set in this part of town twice per season. During the spring season, 13 individuals of two species were captured: Apodemus sylvaticus (totally 12 individuals), and only one individual of species Microtus subterranus . During the summer season, 29 individuals of four species were captured: Apodemus sylvaticus (totally 24 individuals), Microtus subterranus (three individuals), and only one individual of two species: Rattus rattus and Sorex araneus . In total, during the spring and summer season, 42 individuals were caught, more precisely: 36 individuals of species Apodemus sylvaticus , four individuals of species Microtus subterranus , and only one individual of two species: Rattus rattus and Sorex araneus . All captured individuals were marked during the spring season, but only one marked individual of species Apodemus sylvaticus was caught in the summer season. This is a very firm evidence that the populations of the small mammals, especially these species, are extremely large in the town areas, predominantly on the park terrains.
