During a study of predatory mites of Western Siberia, I have recorded the following six species of the genus Stigmaeus (Acari: Stigmaeidae): S. dingus Kuznetsov; S. uzunolukensis Özçelik and Doğan; S. harsitensis Doğan, Doğan and Erman; S. fimus Doğan, Doğan and Erman; S. corticeus Kuznetsov; and S. pilatus Kuznetsov. These species were recorded for the first time from Asian Russia. Moreover, three of the six species—S. uzunolukensis, S. harsitensis and S. fimus—have been recorded for the first time from Russia as well. This article redescribes females of S. dingus and S. uzunolukensis based on materials from Western Siberia. Also, a S. uzunolukensis male is described for the first time.

Abstract Two new late Oligocene species of Deperetomys: D. calefactus and D. saltensis, are described and the affinities between the various species are discussed. The new records extend the stratigraphic range of Deperetomys into the Oligocene, making it the first European Miocene murid that can be traced across the “Cricetid vacuum”. A single M1 of a large early Oligocene murid that may represent the oldest record of Deperetomys is described. The classification problems that arise as a result of the fast increase of information of the Paleogene Muridae from Asia and the Middle East are addressed and the need to recognise and define clades above the genus level is demonstrated. Our conclusion is that the Deperetomys clade contains at least three different evolutionary lineages.

Hoverflies (Syrphidae) are a large Dipteran family, distributed almost worldwide. They play very important ecological roles such as plant pollination, nutrient recycling and predation of plant pests. The members of the genus Epistrophe Walker, 1852 are medium-sized hoverflies of which about 75 species have been described in the World, and 12 of them occur in Europe. During a survey, conducted from 16th June to 4th July 2021 at Blidinje Nature Park (Bosnia and Herzegovina), a new species, of the fauna of Bosnia and Herzegovina, was recorded – Epistrophe diaphana (Zetterstedt, 1843) and new records for species Epistrophe leiophthalma (Schiner & Egger, 1853) were observed. Specimens were collected from inflorescences of Common Hogweed (Heracleum sphondylium L.). Information about the records, species habitats, distribution and status in the country and the region is presented and discussed in this research work.

An updated checklist of leeches (Annelida: Hirudinea) from Bosnia and Herzegovina is presented. The current checklist includes 21 species and subspecies in 14 genera and six families. There are 18 aquatic species (17 freshwater and one marine), two semi-aquatic species and one terrestrial. Two species, Piscicola hadzii Sket, 1985 and Dina sketi Grosser & Pešić, 2014, inhabit only a few localities in Bosnia and Herzegovina and can be considered as endemic species to this area. Based on the original data from the recent research, new records of Dina sketi are given.

Four water mite species of the genera Atractides and Sperchon (Acari: Hydrachnidia) are reported from Serbia and Crna Gora, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Macedonia and Bulgaria. Sperchon vesnae is described as a new species; first description are given of the female of Atractides longisetus Pesic, 2002; first records from the Balkan peninsula are given of Sperchon longissimus Viets, 1920, and Atractides cf. lunipes Lundblad, 1956. The latter is a rare water mite species previously known only from the French Pyrenees.

Seven smut fungi belonging to the genus Microbotryum are reported for the first time from the following Balkan countries: M. heliospermatis, M. piperi, M. scabiosae, M. silenes-dioicae, and M. silenes-saxifragae from Bulgaria, M. reticulatum, M. silenes-saxifragae, and M. stygium from Greece, and M. silenes-saxifragae from Bosnia and Herzegovina and Croatia. The finding of M. piperi represents the first Balkan record of this smut fungus which, elsewhere in Europe, is only known from the French Pyrenees and the Italian Alps. The finding of M. stygium in Crete considerably extends its distribution in Europe. Rumex tuberosus subsp. creticus is reported as a new host for M. stygium.
