The complex studies of mesotrophic and aapa mires in the Luza R. basin (subzone of middle taiga, Republic of Komi) have been carried out. The aapa mires have been recorded in this region for the first time, it was considered earlier that the southern boundary of distribution of aapa mires in the Republic went near the Peteldin settlement (southward of the Ust-Schugor R.). The general characteristics of different mire types has been given, the rare species of the Red Book of RK have been revealed. The decifering of aerial photos has been made and geobotanical maps have been compiled.

First records of Myxomycetes from the Republic of Tuva, Russia, are presented. We identified 24 species of myxomycetes from 12 genera, 7 families and 4 orders in the State Natural Customer “Sut-Khol”. For the Republic of Tuva, 14 species of myxomycetes have been identified for the first time. Arcyria globosa, first identified on the bark of a live Сaragana in the Asian part of Russia using the “moist chamber”. We have also identified a rare species of Echinostelium fragile on the bark of a live Pinus sylvestris.

AbstractThis study was conducted to evaluate the performance of a contracting-out project for military base management in response to recent defense reforms in the Republic of Korea that require military forces to concentrate on operations and combat missions. In this study, the service quality perspective via SERVQUAL was applied to the ROK defense sector for the first time, with the soldiers viewed as customers receiving a service. In addition, to improve the effectiveness of the contracted services, the importance-performance analysis framework was employed to identify the tasks that required urgent attention. We conducted a large-scale survey of 2,112 uniformed members within pilot project units. To avoid problems such as insincere responses or low response rates, we held interviews with the officers managing the units on the subject of the importance and purpose of the questionnaire. As a result, it was found that the outsourcing of cleaning services was the most successful initiative, while mowing/landscaping had the most urgent tasks for improvement, with some respondents believing that reliability and assurance should be improved.

The paper provides the data on aphyllophoroid fungi of the planned protected area “Haapalampi–Northwest shore of Lake Ladoga” situated in the Sortavala District of the Republic of Karelia. The list includes 216 species annotated by data on their habitats, substrates and frequency. In total 11 species of aphyllophoroid fungi protected in the Republic of Karelia (Krasnaya…, 2007) were found in the protected area. Athelia binucleospora, Byssocorticium pulchrum, Hydnum ellipsosporum, H. umbilicatum, Junghuhnia autumnalis, Phanerochaete livescens, Phlebia subcretacea, and Vuilleminia alni are published for the first time for the Republic of Karelia. The specimens of new and rare species are kept in the Mycological Herbarium of the Komarov Botanical Institute RAS (LE).

The genus Lemanea and a species belonging to this genus, Lemanea fucina Bory 1808, are reported for the first time in the Republic of Montenegro (southeast Europe, in the river Tara, at one locality - ?Splaviste? (N-43? 07? 721?, E 019? 18 ?609?). This is a new finding, and also the southernmost point of occurrence of this species in Europe. The species is characteristic mostly for rivers of the countries of northern and western Europe. The variable morphological characteristics of this species are described and illustrated in this work.

Earlier we found for the first time that oil from the seeds of the invasive species O. biennis, collected in various regions of Belarus, is not inferior to world analogues in composition and content of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), including ?-linolenic acid, and is characterized by hypolipidemic and immunostimulating effects. This work demonstrates the antioxidant and protective effect of the oil on human keratinocytes of the HaCaT line under simulated oxidative stress. A map of the distribution of O. biennis has been compiled and the stocks of seeds have been estimated in the regions of the republic. It is assumed that carrying out large-scale studies of O. biennis will help limit its expansion in Belarus, cultivate and standardize raw materials for the creation of domestic herbal medicines for medical purposes.

This book seeks to explain how the Corporation of Glasgow, in its large-scale council house-building programme in the inter- and post-war years, came to reproduce a hierarchical Victorian class structure. The three tiers of housing scheme which it constructed – Ordinary, Intermediate, and Slum-Clearance – effectively signified First, Second and Third Class. This came about because the Corporation uncritically reproduced the offensive and patriarchal attitudes of the Victorian bourgeoisie towards the working-class. The book shows how this worked out on the ground in Glasgow, and describes the attitudes of both authoritarian housing officials, and council tenants. This is the first time the voice of Glasgow’s council tenants has been heard. The conclusion is that local council housing policy was driven by unapologetic considerations of social class.

The paper is devoted to ethno-cultural landscapes of the Republic of Tuva. Ethnocultural landscapes (ECLs) are specific socio-environmental systems that developed as a result of the interaction of ethnic groups with their natural and social environments and are in a constant process of transformation. An attempt is made to identify the mechanisms of the formation, functioning and dynamics of ethnocultural landscapes in the specific conditions of the intracontinental cross-border mountain region, as well as to establish the main factors-catalysts of their modern changes. For the first time an attempt is made to delimit and map the ethnocultural landscapes of Tuva. For this, literary sources, statistical data and thematic maps of different times are analyzed using geoinformation methods. The results of 2014-2018 field studies are also used, during which interviews with representatives of different ethno-territorial, gender, age and social groups were taken. It is revealed that the key factors of Tuva’s ethnocultural landscape genesis are the natural isolation of its territory; the features of its landscape structure; the role of government; population migrations from other regions and the cultural diffusion provoked by them. 13 ethnocultural landscapes are identified at the regional level. Their modern transformation is determined by the shift of climatic cycles, aridisation, globalisation of sociocultural processes, changes in economic specialisation and ethnopsychological stereotypes.

This article reports the occurrence of the thalloid liverwort Cyathodium denticulatum Udar et Srivastava was collected first time from the Achanakmar – Amarkantak Biosphere Reserve (AABR) Bilaspur, Chhattisgarh. It is shown that Cyathodium denticulatum a narrow Himalayan endemic has been reported earlier from Darjeeling, India. There is no record of its occurrence from central India. Cyathodium denticulatum is a rare species known only from eastern Himalayan region. A key to related Indian taxa and taxonomic description is provided.
