ينتمي جنس القنفذ إلى آكلات الحشرات الثديية. في عام 1964 تحـدث العـالم (Harrison (عـن انتشار القنفذ europaeus Erinaceus في أوروبا. و حديثاً أظهرت الدراسات وجود نوعين من القنافـذ المنتشرة في أوروبا وهي تنتمي للجنس (Erinaceus (هما: أ – 1958.L europceus.

In 1964, Harrison talked about the spread of Erinaceus europaeus in Europe. Recently, studies have shown the existence of two species of hedgehogs which are found in Europe and they belong to the genus Erinaceous. They are as follows: 1- E. europaeus L.1758, and they are found in the West of Europe. 2- E. concolor M.1838, and they are found in the East of Europe. The study has been done on 19 features of the skulls (10 males, 9 females) which were collected from the South of Syria. We applied the biometrical measurements according to the method (Miller, 1912). The most important dimensions he used in the biometrical measurements are: (Nas I, MndI, mI). This is according to the method of (Pucek1981), the skulls of the (E. concolor) have higher values. The results showed that the Syrian skulls are lower and shorter. So, we can classify the hedgehogs in both Syria and Bulgaria from one genus called E.concolor and the differences in the nasal index NasI are not important. We Conclude: 1-The Hedgehogs in Syria, Near East area, Arab area and Asia Minor all belong to the ( E.concolorMartin ) . 2-The hedgehogs found in the Asia Minor and the Arab area belong to the genus (E . concolor).

The results of studying the morphological characteristics of the flower, fruit,
pollen grains, and seeds between some of Hypericum genus species, show that
there are relevant morphological differences among the studied species, which
can be considered as taxonomical criteria for distinguishing the studied species
of Hypericum genus from each other.
The aim of this study is to use the measured values of the magnetic
susceptibility in the classification of the basaltic rocks and their different
differentiation degrees as an additional discrimination factor to the
geochemical analyses, which we
re applied on the basalts of southern and southeastern
Syria. So the magnetic susceptibility of ٢٠٤ specimens sampled from all
the ٧ basaltic groups in Qasr Shbeeka area in addition to ٦٢ specimens
sampled from three groups from outside the studied area were measured. This
led to the determination of all the magnetic susceptibility ranges, their mean
values and their standard deviation of the basaltic rocks in the area.
Results of the study revealed the presence of four aphid species which
spread in the wheat fields of Daraa during 2013.
They are: Schizaphis graminum (Rondani), Rhopalosiphum padi (L),
Rhopalosiphum maidis (Fitch) and Sitobion avenae (Fab).
S. gr
aminum was most widely amounted rate (48%), followed by specie
of R. padi (% 20) then R. maidis (% 16.8), and finally specie of S.
avenae rate (14.9%).
The appearance time of the different stages insect (nymphs, winged
insects, winged) for its specie and their arriving time to the peak were
identify.
A study for tribe Coccinellini (Coccinellidae, Coeloptera) was conducted in
south of Syria. The objective of this study was to determine the species and
their relative abundance. Members of this tribe important for biological control
because they
are primariy predators on aphids. The adults Coccinellids were
collected from agriclture and natural ecosystems from August 2001 the end of
July 2003. The results revealed the presence of 10 species belonging to 8 genera.
The investigation included their abundance and distribution in south of Syria.
The species Anisosticta novemdecimpunctata (L.) was recorded in Syria for the
first time. The Adonis ladybird, Hippodamia (Adonia) variegata (Goeze), was
the commonest species. and the most abundant ones were H. variegata (Goeze)
44.9%, Oenopia conglobata (L.) 27.7% and Coccinella septempunctata L.
10.5%.
This research concludes an determination of some Culicinae mosquitoes
distributed in south of Syria.
The study show that there are 14 species, 3 of them were recorded for the
first time in the study area, these 3 species were described, illustrate
d , and
distinguished from related species ,the seasonal reproduction and the habitat
types of these were studied .
(Culex perexiguus , Cx.sinaiticus , Cx.territans).
