摘要
On a local road with light traffic from Carei Plain natural protected area, we recorded 731 dead bodies, belonging to 11 amphibian and five reptile species. Individuals killed on the road belong to 80% of thespecies of the herpetofauna found in the region. The most affected species was Pelobates fuscus. The intensity of road mortality differed between periods, with peak in spring. In summer the number of road killed individuals and species was reduced but in the autumn it raised again. In 2014, the dry summer and autumn reduced the amplitude of road mortality. Most of the affected species are protected.
