Охраняемые виды животных как индикатор экологического состояния территории Новой Москвы

Abstract

One of the indicators of the ecological state of the territory is an indicator of the number of protected species of biota as an element of the natural heritage, which is directly dependent on the state of the environment and nature conservation activity; at the same time, the state of species of biota is important, which categories and protection status speak about. On the territory of New Moscow live animal species that are currently listed in the Red Book of the Moscow Region [2018]. In 2012, these territories were transferred to the capital, and their development is planned within the city. However, the registration of protected species has not yet been combined with the accounting in the metropolitan territories. The development of New Moscow in the rank of the capital will inevitably lead to an increase in anthropogenic load and the environmental situation will worsen, which even now is not everywhere favorable. The species that are found in New Moscow (was studied the territory of the Troitsky and Novomoskovsky administrative districts — hereinafter the TNAD), in Moscow, as a rule, have a higher protection category or do not occur at all. Many of these species are listed in the Red Books of regions adjacent to Moscow region, and some in the Red Book of Russian Federation [2001]. There are species that are also included in international environmental programs, Red Books and specialized environmental actions of different countries or groups of countries. In the article species considers from this point of view, compares with the Red Book of Moscow, provides a list of protected species of animals and maps of species findings, with considering the ecological situation. On the territory of TNAD, currently 67 species of animals are listed in the Red Books in different categories, among them are 3 species of mammals, 20 — birds, 2 — reptiles, 2 — amphibians, 1 — fishes, 39 — invertebrates (37 insects, 1 a representative of the class of gill legs and 1 — gastropods). In the process, maps of the Red Book of the Moscow Region [2018] for individual species are summarized and 5 maps of finds were compiled for classes and large groups of protected animals in 5 protection categories.
