Aim. To obtain new data on the species diversity, phylogenetic structure, and ecological characteristics of thelephoroid fungi (Thelephorales, Basidiomycota) in the Republic of Dagestan.Material and Methods. Both micromorphological and molecular analyses were used for studying of the fungal specimens collected by the authors in 2018-2019 in the Gunibsky and Magaramkentsky Districts of Dagestan. Additional specimens from the Mycological Herbarium of the Komarov Botanical Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences (LE) were studied. The ITS region of nrDNA was amplified with two pairs of primers, ITS1F/ITS4 and ITS5/ITS4.Results. Sixteen ITS sequences belonging to eight species were obtained from the studied material. Of them, 14 sequences clustered in the Tomentella clade and two sequences nested within the Odontia clade. Four species – Odontia duemmeri, Tomentella lapida, T. radiosa, T. terrestris – were registered for the first time for Dagestan. Detailed information on the specimens studied is presented. Species identification of Odontia fibrosa, Tomentella badia, T. ferruginea, and T. stuposa was confirmed by ITS nrDNA analysis.Conclusion. Data on the species richness of the genera Odontia and Tomentella in Dagestan is updated, and the species T. lilacinogrisea is excluded from the regional funga. To date the genera Odontia and Tomentella in the Republic of Dagestan are represented by three and fifteen species, respectively.

Five species of insectivorous bats are reported for the first time from the Kruger National Park. One of these, Pipistrellus anchietai, represents a new record for the southern African Subregion, and two species, Laephotis botswanae and Nycteris woodi are recorded for the first time for the Republic of South Africa. The remaining two species, Eptesicus melckorum and Tadarida ansorgei are first records of ' occurrence for the Transvaal. The species richness of the bat fauna of the Kruger National Park, and particularly of the Pafuri area, is reviewed.

Almost all net-winged beetles are members of Müllerian complexes and their similarity due to phenotypic coevolution sometimes complicates species identification and generic placement. Therefore, large specimen series, detailed exhaustive examination of morphological characters and molecular data are needed to clarify the taxonomic placement. Using mitochondrial DNA sequences, I investigated the sexual dimorphism and generic placement of the recently described species Calochromus pardus Kazantsev, 2018. I found that the species does not belong in Calochromus Guérin-Méneville, 1833 and all morphological characters and molecular analyses point to its placement in Micronychus Motschulsky, 1861. Therefore, Micronychus pardus (Kazantsev, 2018), comb. nov. is proposed. Additionally, the male is described here for the first time showing the sexual dimorphism in the species. Unlike the females, the males do not superficially resemble members of Xylobanus Waterhouse, 1879 with bright coloured elytral costae and black background, but mimics the sympatrically occurring yellow and black lycids in the genus Cautires Waterhouse, 1879.

The review considered the next IV Volume of a multi-volume publication: A Code of monuments of history, architecture and culture of the Crimean Tatars, prepared jointly by the Crimean Scientific Center of Sh. Marjani Institute of history of Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Tatarstan, the Department of History of Fevzi Yakubov “Crimean Engineering and Pedagogical University” and the State Hermitage with the involvement of specialists studying the history and archeology of Solkhat. This volume is entirely devoted to the monuments of history, archeology and architecture of Solkhat – Stary Krym and its district of the second half of the XIII-XIX centuries. For the first time in Russian historiography, the most complete list of cultural heritage objects has been collected. All archaeological works were carried out in Solkhat and its district from the second half of the 1920s and up to today. Previously unpublished photographs and drawings are given in the volume. This publication is rightly considered a new stage in the study of this unique historical place of the Crimea.

Aim. The study of the genus Melanotus from the collection of the Institute of Zoology of the Scientific Center of Zoology and Hydroecology of the National Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Armenia taking into account new taxonomic and chorological data.Material and Methods. Scientific material was identified after desktop processing and preparation of genitalia according to current data on the genus Melanotus.Results and Conclusion. We determined 21 species of the genus Melanotus in the collection from Europe, the Caucasus and Middle Asia, 12 species being recorded from the territory of Armenia. The collection of the genus Мelanotus in the Institute of Zoology includes species endemic to Armenia (M. gedeoni Mardjanyan, 2015, M. platiai Mardjanyan, 2015, M. khnzoriani Mardjanyan, 2015), to Tajikistan (M. fragilloides Dolin, 1988, M. vidualis Gurjeva, 1988) and to Iran (M. dichroides Platia & Gudenzi, 1999, M. richterae Mardjanyan, 2015). Three species, M. castanipes Paykull, 1800, M. fulvus Reitter, 1891 and M. sladkovi Dolin & Atamuradov, 1986 are recorded for the first time for Armenia. M. rustamovi Dolin & Atamuradov, 1987 is the first record for Tajikistan and M. persimilis Dolin & Latifi, 1988 for Turkmenistan.

The total species richness in the myriapod assemblages of the lowland Altais near Charyshskoe Village, Altai Province, southwestern Siberia, Russia is estimated to be at least 19 species from ten genera, eight families, five orders, and two classes. The following species are new to SW Siberia: Lithobius (Ezembius) ostiacorum Stuxberg, 1876,L. vagabundusStuxberg, 1876, and L. (Monotarsobius) nordenskioeldii Stuxberg, 1876, while L. (E.) proximus Sseliwanoff, 1880 and L. (M.) insolens Dányi & Tuf, 2012 are recorded for the first time from the Altai Province of Russia. A species ofStrigamiawhich is morphologically similar to Strigamia cf. transsilvanica (Verhoeff, 1928) has been found in the study area but its true specific identity is yet to be determined. The seasonal dynamics of myriapod assemblages in terms of the species diversity, density, sex-age structure, and vertical distribution along the soil profile have been studied with regard to the different slope exposures.

In the flora of the Chuvash Republic, 40 species of the genus are revealed. 11 of these (A. altaica, А. argutiserrata, A. barbulata, A. cheirochlora, A. exilis, A. gibberulosa, A. hebescens, A. oxyodonta, A. plicata, A. sibirica, A. vorotnikovii) are registered in the Republic for the first time. Earlier, two species (A. pustynensis Czkalov and A. obtusa auct. non Buser) were noted here erroneously. Species are revealed whose richness corresponds to the level seen in neighbouring regions and approaches the maximum possible. Species richness of the botanicalgeographical areas differs crucially between forest (20–27) and other (steppe/steppefied/outwash) landscapes (2–11) species.

The article analyses the process of creating a generalizing multi-volume work on the history of the Belarusian SSR. The publication reveals a unique experience of coordinating historical research related to the most important phenomena of the socio-political, socio-economic and cultural life of Belarus in the post-war period of the development of national historical science. For the first time in historiography, the scientific and organizational activity of creating a fundamental work reflecting the history of Belarus from ancient times to the mid 1970s has been studied. The idea of subordinating historical science to the interests of party politics is presented. The article is based on unpublished archival sources of the Central Scientific Archive of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus, of the National Archives of the Republic of Belarus, which are being introduced into scientific circulation for the first time.
