BIOTA is a small company gathering a young innovative team of biologists interested in scientific research and development of new technologies in the field of biology, biotechnology, and education. We focus on areas of urban food production in aquaponics, biofilter technology, urban waste protein into useful protein transformation systems, remotely operated urban agriculture and landscaping, bioremediation of forest growth and global reforestation with drone technology. Our technologies help the urban population live in a healthier and greener environment within modern cities. Plants have direct healing properties and make our lives happy. Our services and products are available in Croatia, Serbia, Slovenia, Montenegro, Kosovo, Macedonia and Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Europe’s Cave Dragon Revealed: Nine Species of Proteus Hidden Beneath the Dinaric Karst

One of the longest-standing mysteries in European herpetology has finally been resolved. A new study published in Amphibia–Reptilia reveals that the olm (Proteus anguinus), one of Europe’s most iconic subterranean animals, is not a single widespread species. Instead, it represents nine distinct species, hidden within the underground waters of the Dinaric Karst.

The international study was co-authored by Dr Dušan Jelić of BIOTA, who has spent nearly two decades exploring the subterranean waters of the Dinaric Karst and studying Proteus populations, including through demanding cave-diving expeditions.

Tagging Hope: A Decade of Protecting Croatia’s Last Telestes souffia in the Bregana River

In 2025, our team completed the latest chapter of a decade-long effort to protect Telestes souffia, tagging 30 adult individuals in the Bregana River using BIOMARK PIT technology. Each fish was gently anesthetised, measured, weighed, and fitted with an 8 mm microchip to enable long-term tracking of survival and movement in its last Croatian habitat. The work builds on earlier studies, including the 2017 research that documented a small and declining population, underscoring the urgency of continued monitoring. With new data now collected, updated 2025 population estimates are on the way — and hope for the species continues to flow with the Bregana.
