Sažetak
Context: Red deer (Cervus elaphus) is the most important species in game management, from points of both economic and cultural value. In Croatia red deer is distributed over the majority of its continental part, including lowland, hilly and mountain habitats. Fluctuations in population size caused by overhunting, extinction and later reintroductions/recolonizations have led to conclusion that red deer in Croatia represent a mix of different subspecies. Here we review and discuss conclusions reported in various literature. Review: Presently, red deer complex is divided into two main lineages, western (elaphoids) and eastern (maraloids). Western one is present in Europe, North Africa and Western Asia, while eastern one inhabits North America and Eastern Asia. The most recent studies based on the microsatellite analysis revealed three genetic clusters, haplogroup A distributed from Iberia through Central and Northern Europe, and partially to Eastern Europe ; haplogroup C in the Balkans and parts of Eastern and Central Europe ; and B restricted to Sardinia and Corsica and the North Africa. Lineages are further divided into a large number of subspecies, some of which are now extinct, while many of them have been questioned with development of modern molecular techniques. Their distribution overlaps in many regions. As such, middle and lower parts of the Danube River basin represent a region where elaphoid and maral type of red deer intertwine. Indeed, analysis of Early Holocene samples from Serbia indicate integrity of the maral group into elaphoid one. Morphologically, this integration resulted in a Banwell’s proposal of a subspecies named Cervus elaphus pannoniensis (1998). He described several specific morphological characteristics that separate C. e. pannoniensis from western elaphoid deer C. hippelaphus, but unfortunately, he did not provide differentiation to C. e. maral. Along with description of body characteristics, Banwell has offered antlered skull of Hungarian red deer as a type specimen with long beams and tines (especially well-developed brow tines and beztines) and with present crowns. However, recent studies on larger set of red deer antlers from Pannonian and Mountain parts of Croatia did not provide statistically significant differences in elements used for trophy evaluation according to CIC system. Conclusion: Even though genetic analysis has shown preservation of natural patterns in European red deer populations, morphological differences between them are blurred by constant fluctuations in the red deer populations, natural colonization and artificial introductions by humans. Analysis of Holocene samples and certain morphological characteristics indicate contact between elaphoid and maraloid deer in the middle and lower parts of the Danube basin and support potential existence of C. e. pannoniensis.
