LAMELUCORN BEETLES (COLEOPTERA, SCARABAEOIDEA: TROGIDAE, SCARABAEIDAE, LUCANIDAE) OF UDMURT REPUBLIC

S.V. Dedukhin

As a result of long-term researches on the area of Udmurtia 88 species of beetles from superfamily Scarabaeoidea were recorded (3 species of Trogidae, 79 species of Scarabaeidae and 6 species of Lucanidae). 23 species were found in region for the first time. The short ecological and geographical characteristic of fauna of superfamily was made and noted signs of its originality.

GEOMETRID MOTHS (LEPIDOPTERA) OF VLADIMIR AREA

EM Antonova, M.V. Uskov

The first check-list of Geometridae (Lepidoptera) of the Vladimir Area (Central Russia) consisting 195 species is given. 2 species reported from Vladimir Area earlier are not found recently. The list is based on the personal material gathered by M.V. Uskov in 1993-2003 and other available collections. All literature data are incorporated as well. For each species, data on its flight time, distribution and aboundance are provided.

MATERIALS ON THE DISTRIBUTION OF VERRUCA STROEMIA (CIRRIPEDIA: VERRUCIDAE) IN THE NORTH SEAS OF RUSSIA

O.P. Poltarukha, N.A. Anisimova

The distribution of Verruca stroemia was studied using the bottom materials sampled in the North Seas of Russia by Murmansk Marine Biological Institute. It was shown that the distribution of this species in the Barents Sea, when suitable substrates for settlement are present, is limited by the isotherm +2°C of the average near-bottom water temperature during the summer season (August). Morphology of the examined individuals of V. stroemia from the Barents Sea is similar to that from other parts of distribution area. The key for identification of the Verrucomorpha species inhabiting the Russian Seas is given.

THE ONTOMORPHOGENESIS AND ANATOMICAL PATTERNS OF VEGETATIVE ORGRANS IN ACMISPON AMERICANUS (NUTT.) RYDB. (LEGUMINOSAE)

T.A. Tsutsupa, R.P. Barykina

Morphology and anatomy of various age plants is studied in A. americanus (Nutt.) Rydb. Six age classes were described as a result of the life cycle study of A, americanus. In North America plants of A. americanus are developing as annuals. Plants introduced to Central Russia (Orel prov.) are variable in development. Typically, they develop as annuals. However, sometimes A. americanus is growing as dicarpous biennial plant in conditions of Orel province.

ALGOFLORA OF WATER BODIES OF RIVER GORODNJA BASIN (MOSCOW, RUSSIA)

O. V. Anissimova, S.S. Barinova

Data on species contenet of algae from the Gorodnya River, Moscow are presented for the first time. We revealed 113 species (119 including the infraspecies taxa) from 6 divisions, 8 classes, 14 orders, 28 families and 53 genera. The taxonomic analysis shows that diatom algae constitute the leaidng at all taxonomic levels. At the familial level, they are matched by the Euglenaceae alone, while the divisions Chlorophyta and Cyanoprocaryota are co-dominant at the generic level. The ecological analysis of the Gorodnya algoflora has shown a preference of benthic habitats with moderately warm slightly alcaline water poor in chlorides. Five species are new for the Moscow and Moscow Region.

NEW SPECIES OF THE GENUS LASCONOTUS ERICHSON, 1845 (COLEOPTERA, ZOPHERIDAE) FROM MIDDLE ASIA AND KAZAKHSTAN

N.B. Nikitsky, S.A. Slipirtski

Descriptions of new species of the genus Lasconotus Erichson, 1845 from Middle Asia and Kazakhstan is given. The new species distinctly differs from only European — representative of genus — Lasconotus jelskii (Wankowicz, 1867) in not — flattened lateral margin of pronotum and in the shape of its posterior angles. They are rarher more or less dulled — rounded than projected sharply, more or less right angled like posterior pronotum angles of European species. New species belongs to the group of species that is characterized by the narrowly elongate body, the pronotal carinae very low not distinctly crested and marked by a serial pubescence, and the elytra! odd intervals convex, similarly elevated and distinctly higher than flat even intervals. The most similar species resembling L. montanus are the three North America species: L. pertenuis Casey, L. linearis Crotch and L. vergrandis Horn. Lasconotus vergrandis does not have traceable pronotal carinae at all, and the median longitudinal depression is rather strong and distinctly granulate. L. linearis has bicoloured elytra and the lateral edges of pronotum distinctly serrate. L. pertenuis differs from L. montanus in having the last abdominal ventrite more strongly depressed in the middle with the posterior margin raised to form a carina along the edge. The pronotum in L, pertenuis spears to be more coarsely granulated in the middle, with granuiles about 2 times bigger than length of the elytral puncture while in L. montanus the granules are about the same size as the elytral punctures.

ON A POPULATION OF OENEIS JUTTA (HUBNER, 1806) (LEPIDOPTERA, SATYRIDAE), DISCOVERED AT NORTHRN MOSCOW REGION

E. V. Nikolaeva

The population of Oeneis jutta (Htibner, 1806) was found out at research of a not broken oligotrophic bog in Scrgiev-Posad district of Moscow area. It means, that the natural habitat of this species in the European part of Russia is much wider, than was considered earlier.

ABOUT A FIND OF RELICT PHYTOCENOSISES SELAGINELU SANGUINOLENTA (L.) SPRING ON AN ISLAND OLHON (BAIKAL)

L.N. Kasyinova, M.G. Azovsky

In clause the new site of infequent phytocenosises Selaginella sanguinolenta (L.) Spring of an ancient kind is described.
