We studied the species diversity and abundance of small terrestrial mammals in the spring and autumn period of 2016-2019 in four groups of habitats of the protected area “Sarykum barkhans” of the Dagestan Nature Reserve: barkhan, floodplain forest, ailant plantations, the territory of the cordon. During the study period, 10 species of terrestrial small mammals were recorded – E. roumanicus, C. suaveolens, C. leucodon, M. musculus, M. macedonicus, A. fulvipectus, C. migratorius, M. socialis, D. sagitta, D. nitedula. Apodemus and Mus mice are the dominant species in the studied area. Mice of Apodemus and M. macedonicus were registered for the first time in the territory of barchans. Indicator species of xerophilic ecosystems – C. migratorius, M. socialis, D. sagitta, were recorded locally, exclusively in the only biotope of barkhan. H. auritus, S. pygmaeus, A. major, M. arvalis, A. terrestris, R. norvegicus, M. tamariscinus, which were previously noted by several authors, were not registered (both traces of vital activity and animals themselves) in the studied area during the whole period of research (2016-2019). Seasonal and annual fluctuations of species diversity and abundance taking into account groups of biotopes and small mammal habitats were revealed.

Biogeographical Province

Gladyshevskiy regional protected area has been investigated at the limits of Saint Petersburg (Russia; biogeographical province Isthmus karelicus). This territory is valuable for Roschinka River ecosystems and natural forest landscapes. The current study is based on lichen data collected by authors within 2005–2013 and on historical herbarium of A. O. Kihlman (collected in 1893, includes 53 species). Altogether 310 species of lichen-forming, lichenicolous and non-lichenized fungi are reported from the protected area, among them historical collections of 20 species that were not found within the area nowadays. Caloplaca albolutescens (Nyl.) H. Olivier is published for the first time for European Russia (excluding Caucasus) and 25 species are new to St. Petersburg. The data on localities, habitat use and substratum use of Arthonia subfuscicola (Linds.) Triebel, Chaenotheca subroscida (Eitner) Zahlbr., Chaenothecopsis viridialba (Kremp.) Alb. Schmidt and Schismatomma pericleum (Ach.) Branth et Rostr. are for the first time provided for St. Petersburg. Altogether 14 indicator species and habitat specialists of biologically valuable forests are known from the area, but seven of them — Chaenotheca subroscida, Chaenothecopsis viridialba, Microcalicium disseminatum (Ach.) Vain., Nephroma parile (Ach.) Ach., N. resupinatum (L.) Ach., Ramalina thrausta (Ach.) Nyl. and Schismatomma pericleum — are known from historical data only and can be considered extinct from St. Petersburg. Also 14 species included in the Red Data Book of St. Petersburg (Prilozhenie…, 2014) are reported from Gladyshevskiy protected area, seven of them still present there: Anaptychia ciliaris (L.) Körb., Bacidia rubella (Hoffm.) A. Massal., Cladonia norvegica Tønsberg et Holien, C. stellaris (Opiz) Pouzar et Vězda, Leptogium teretiusculum (Wallr.) Arnold, Montanelia sorediata (Ach.)

Abstract This paper presents first materials on the fauna and distribution of the terrestrial isopods - woodlice (Oniscidea) inhabiting the central and southern parts of Kostanay Region (Kazakhstan, Northern and Southern Turgai), located in the steppe zone. Most of the specimens of woodlice were collected in the territory of the National Nature Reserve “Altyn Dala”, a new protected area (established in 2012) and in the area of the Naurzum National Nature Reserve (established in 1931, World Heritage Site of UNESCO), on the Stipa lessingiana dry steppe. The list of woodlice includes six species (Crustacea: Isopoda: Oniscidea), belonging to five genera and three families in the study area. Four species are recorded for the first time in Kazakhstan - Desertoniscus subterraneus Verhoeff, 1930, Parcylisticus dentifrons (Budde-Lund 1885), Porcellio scaber Latreille, 1804, and Protracheoniscus major (Dollfus 1903). Distribution characteristics are provided for all of those species recorded in the study area. For the territory of Kazakhstan, according to a literature data, currently 16 species of terrestrial isopods have been recorded.

A total of 320 species from 42 families were registered in the herpetobios (stratobiont and epigeobiont beetles) of the urbocenosis of Kharkiv. Among these more than 160 species are recorded for the first time for this metropolis. Four species of ground beetles (Notiophilus germinyi Fauvel, Clivina fossor L., Laemostenus terricola Herbst and Masoreus wetterhali Gyll.) were not listed for Ukraine in the Catalogue of Palearctic Coleoptera. The species Omosita japonica Reitter, 1874 (Nitidulidae) is new for Ukranian fauna. Moreover, 93 species from 17 families are the dominant species (at least in one of the urban ecosystems). Among these, eudominants are represented with almost 20 species, but the number of eudomonants did not exceed ten species in separate urban cenoses. Carabidae (80), Staphylinidae (36), Curculionidae (32) and Tenebrionidae (8 species) dominate both, in species composition and abundance. The total part of these groups reached at least 90% of Coleoptera, recorded in urban-cenosis. Separate species of Silphidae, Dermestidae, Elateridae, Chrysomelidae, Leiodidae, Coccinellidae, Nitidulidae, Scarabaeidae, Histeridae and Lucanidae were sporadically usual in most plots. They accounted almost 9% of the total quantity of all beetles in transformed cenoses. Among these, a greater number of species are found within the families of Scarabaeidae (33), Chrysomelidae (16), Elateridae (14), Histeridae (12), Coccinellidae (11) and Nitidulidae (11), Silphidae (6) and Dermestidae (6). The rest of the families are represented with 1–4 species. All beetles registered in herpetobios belong to three groups. Typical inhabitants of herpetobios prevailed (about 200 species from 22 families, at least 90% of all Coleoptera). The proportion of species sporadically associated with herpetobios (more than 40 species from 10 families) was about 5% of all beetles. Random components of herpetobios are represented by more than 70 species from 10 families, and their total share did not exceed 3% of all Coleoptera. A preliminary taxonomic review of coleopterofauna was carried out in different urbocenoses. The number of species in urbocenosises ranged from 101 (Forest Park) to 124 (urban parks). In other green plantings of the city, the species diversity reached 105–118 species. The number of dominant beetles in different areas ranged from 37 to 60 species.

The greatest species diversity of Sphagnum mosses for the Central Caucasus was found in the flora of Sphagnum floating mires in the vicinity of the settlement Verkhnyaya Balkaria, Cherekskiy District, Kabardino-Balkarian Republic, where 12 species of Sphagnum were recorded: Sphagnum angustifolium, S. balticum, S. fallax, S. flexuosum, S. fuscum, S. girgensohnii, S. magellanicum s. l., S. obtusum, S. palustre, S. papillosum, S. squarrosum, S. teres. The list of species collected by authors [7 VII 2017 Украинская, Якимов (Ukrainskaya, Yakimov)] with specimen numbers, references on collecting sites (table 1), frequency and data on distribution in Caucasus is provided. Sphagnum obtusum and S. papillosum are recorded for the first time for the Russian Caucasus, S. flexuosum is recorded for the first time for Kabardino-Balkaria. Distribution of every recorded Sphagnum species within the Sphagnum floating mire complex is discussed. The associated mosses, including rare for the mire communities of the Caucasus Meesia triquetra, Polytrichum commune, Tetraplodon mnioides, Warnstorfia fluitans, W. pseudostraminea are listed. It is suggested to include this lake-mire complex in the Kabardino-Balkaria Nature Reserve.

The first electron-microscopic investigation of silica-scaled chrysophytes in water bodies of the protected area Kurgalsky Nature Reserve located in the North-West of European Russia has resulted in the discovery of two species that are new for the Russian flora, Mallomonas favosa and M. teres. Mallomonas teres is reported for the first time since its original descriptions. In addition, Paraphysomonas cf. ovalis and an unknown species of Mallomonas were observed. Descriptions, original photos, and habitat features of these four species are given.
