Abstract:
There are the total of 57 identified forest and shrub communities in the area of Djerdap National Park. The flora of this area is known by its diversity and abundance, but the diversity of habitats and communities has also affected the fauna. There is a registered presence of red deer (about 220 individuals in spring 2017), chamois (90), roe deer (900), wild boar (250), brown hare (700), wolf (24), jackal (10), red fox (240), badger (120), pheasant (50), grey partridge (240), woodcock (100), and many other strictly protected species. Red deer was in the past distributed in the hilly and mountainous regions of Central Serbia, but due to irrational hunting and the deteriorated stand conditions, already in 1905 it became an endangered species or it disappeared. During the period from 1962 to 1964, red deer originating from Belje (n=16) and Mt. Fruška gora (n=2) were settled in the central area of the National Park in a place called “Kusi rt” (Forest Management Unit “Zlatica”), where an enclosed shelter area of about 6 ha had previously been established. Considering that the red deer is fed with various forest plants, including berries, tree seedlings and the bark of trees, the Djerdap National Park is a suitable area for red deer feeding. The aim of this paper was to give a review of wild fruit species that are suitable for red deer feeding in the area of Djerdap National Park. Identification of the species was done in different sites. Some of recorded fruit species are: Alnus glutinosa (L.) Gaertn., Cornus mas L., Corylus avellana L., Corylus colurna L., Crataegus monogyna Jacq., Juglans regia L., Malus syvlestris (L.) Mill., Prunus avium L., Prunus spinosa L., Pyrus communis L., Rosa canina L., Sambucus nigra L., Sorbus torminalis (L) Crantz., Sorbus domestica L., etc. In addition to a brief description, the distribution of these species in the Djerdap National Park, specifying the name of the location, are presented.
