The paper provides a brief overview of seismological studies in the Altai-Sayan mountain region. The de-velopment of a network of seismological stations and experiments with temporary stations in the epicen-tral zones of large earthquakes is described. It is shown that the background seismicity of the region is or-dered over time into structures with a hierarchy in the rate of occurrence. Large earthquakes in some cases occur in places that do not match with the areas of increased background seismicity. Major earthquakes in Eastern Tuva (Busingol, Belin-Biy-Khem, etc.) occur as shifts and rotations of blocks near rift depressions. Large earthquakes of the Western Sayan Ridge and the Academician Obruchev Ridge (Tuvan First and Second earthquakes, Sayan earthquake) are associated with faults transverse to these structures and are the result of the uneven extension of blocks of the Tuva hollow and the Tuva highlands to the north. Stud-ies in the Altai Mountains found that after a long period (about 10 years) of the aftershock process of the Chui earthquake dominating the seismicity, a period of seismic activation of adjacent (60-80 km) and dis-tant (within a radius of approximately 260-280 km) structures occurred. The center of seismic activity shifted from the epicenter of the 2003 Chui earthquake to the epicenter of the 2019 Aigulak earthquake. Experimental work with powerful vibrators has determined the capabilities of a network of seismological stations in vibroseismic monitoring of the Earth's crust.

The monograph presents an overview of the forest-steppe vegetation of the West Siberian Plain and the Altai-Sayan mountain region. The questions of bioclimatic zonation of the Altai-Sayan mountain region are discussed. The biodiversity of foreststeppe is characterized, the floristic classification is performed, the scheme of eco-phytocoenotic classification is given, the basic types of plant communities are described in comparative terms. The diversity of forest-steppe landscapes is revealed, the structure of their vegetation is analyzed. The phytogeographical division of forest-steppe is worked out.

Three species of true bugs (Heteroptera), Blepharidopterus angulatus, Phytocoris nowickyi and Scolopostethus thomsoni, new for the Krasnoyarsk Territory, were found in the Western Sayan Mountains. Two species, Drymus sylvaticus and Odontoscelis fuliginosa, are recorded in the Tyva Republic for the first time; this is the first finding of the genus Drymus in the region.

The Kuroshio

The Potato Grouper, Epinephelustukula, is relatively rare worldwide. Records from the northernmost part of its range (Japan) have been few, resulting in a “Critically Endangered” listing on the Red List for Japan. The Japanese records were revised by examining literature, new specimens, photographs, and the internet, and a continuous distribution pattern from the tropical Ryukyu Islands (including adult individuals) to temperate regions affected by the Kuroshio Current were delineated; this suggests the species inhabits tropical Japan and can spread to temperate regions via the warm current. The species possibly reproduces in Japanese waters but further reproductive ecology research is required.
