The genus Corynoneura Winnertz is partly revised on the basis of materials from the Russian Far East and Eastern Siberia. Adult male of a new species, C. sikhotealinensis sp. nov., as well as pupa of C. schleei Makarchenko et Makarchenko and pupa with associated pharate male of Corynoneura sp. are described. Adult male of C. fujiundecima Sasa, earlier erroneously determined as C. lacustris Edwards, is briefly redescribed and annotated. DNA barcoding results of C. kadalinka Makarchenko et Makarchenko from Eastern Siberia (Baikal Lake basin) are also provided in comparison with closely related C. carriana Edwards from Sweden. As a result of the analysis, supported with sufficiently significant morphological differences between males of these two distant populations, the two species were combined into one, C. carriana, with two subspecies: C. carriana carriana Edwards (nominotypical) and C. carriana kadalinka Makarchenko et Makarchenko stat. nov. A morphological redescriptions of the adult male and pupa, as well as the 4th instar larva (here described for the first time) of C. carriana kadalinka in comparison with specimens of populations of the C. carriana carriana from Sweden and the Urals are presented. A key to adult males and pupae of the Corynoneura species from the Russian Far East and Eastern Siberia is also provided. 

For the first time, a comparative analysis of the tachinid fauna of the Phasiinae subfamily of the Russian Far East with the fauna of neighboring regions has been presented. The Phasiinae fauna of the Primorsky Krai (Far East of Russia) is characterized as peculiar but closest to the fauna of the southern part of Khabarovsk Krai, Amur Oblast and Eastern Siberia. The following groups of regions have been identified: Southern, Western and Eastern Siberia; Amur Oblast and Primorsky Krai, which share many common Holarctic and Transpalaearctic species.Special mention should be made of the fauna of the Khabarovsk Krai, Sakhalin Oblast, which are characterized by poor species composition and Japan (having a subtropical appearance).

Illustrated redescription of males for four species, N. fengchengensis Wang, Wang, 1996, N. minuta (Linevich, 1963), N. oyabeparvulus (Sasa, Kawai, Ueno, 1988) and N. yakuefea (Sasa, Suzuki, 2000) is given. A description of the pupa N. yakuefea (Sasa, Suzuki, 2000) is provided for the first time. The males of N. oyabeparvulus (Sasa, Kawai, Ueno, 1988) and N. yakuefea (Sasa, Suzuki, 2000) are recorded for the first time for the fauna of Russia. Neozavrelia okamotoi (Sasa, 1989) is a junior synonym Neozavrelia oyabeparvulus (Sasa, Kawai, Ueno, 1988). Neozavrelia ginzanlemeus (Sasa, Suzuki, 2001) is a junior synonym Neozavrelia yakuefea (Sasa, Suzuki, 2000). Keys to the males and pupae of the Russian Neozavrelia species are given.

The geographic range of the rare coleopteran Tragosoma depsarium (Linnaeus, 1767) is summarized, and the Eurasian distribution is mapped for the first time. Particular attention is paid to the eastern Palaearctic part of the species’ range, where dubious data prevail. Distributional data from the Russian Far East have been published, but not confirmed, are considered, and new records of this species in Eastern Siberia are reported.

Species of the genus Toxeuma Walker, 1833 from Russia are reviewed. A new species, Toxeuma leleji Tselikh, sp. nov., is described from the Russian Far East. Toxeuma fuscicorne Walker, 1833 and T. styliclava (Hedqvist, 1974) are recorded for the first time from Russia; Toxeuma acilius (Walker, 1848) – for the first time for Western and Eastern Siberia and the European part of Russia; Toxeuma paludum Graham, 1959 – for the first time for Western and Eastern Siberia; Toxeuma subtruncatum Graham, 1959 – for the first time for Primorskii Region. An identification key to females of all Palaearctic species of Toxeuma is provided.

The nasocorine plant bug genus Campylomma Reuter from Japan and neighboring regions is reviewed. Twelve species are currently recognized. Several species, which have pale basic coloration, are rediagnosed, with emphasis on the male and female genitalia as significant taxonomic characters. Two new species, C. fukagawai and C. tanakakiana, are described and figured, and C. marjorae Schuh is reported from Japan for the first time and diagnosed. The females of three taxonomically confused species, C. eurycephala Yasunaga, C. livida Reuter and C. lividicornis Reuter, are documented in detail and figured for the first time. Female specimens of the most frequently encountered congeners, C. lividicornis Reuter and C. livida Reuter, can now be unequivocally identified. Confidently associated final-instar immatures are figured for C. aterrima Yasunaga and C. livida Reuter. Confirmed host plant associations are reported for most treated species. Campylomma chinensis [= chinense] Schuh is proposed as a junior synonym of C. livida Reuter, and C. chichijima Carvalho is regarded as nomen dubium. A checklist and a key to species are provided, which are applicable to the faunas of Japan, and of Korea, NE China the Russian Far East and Taiwan as well.

Twenty species of Orthoptera in 19 genera and four families are recorded from the Komsomolsky Nature Reserve for the first time and only four species in two families are found in the wildlife preserve «Udyl». The species riches of Orthoptera recorded from the natural reserves in the Amur Region of the Russian Far East are compared. Number of species in Komsomolsky and Bastak reserves is almost the same (15–20 species), while 51 species of Orthoptera are known from Khingansky Reserve.
