Kellicottia bostoniensis (Rousselet, 1908) (Rotifera: Brachionidae) and Eurycercus macracanthus Frey, 1973 (Crustacea: Cladocera) — new species of zooplankton fauna of the Moscow region

The new species Entoloma piceinum O. V. Morozova, Voronina et Arslanov of the section Fernandae (subgenus Nolanea), found at two sites of the European Russia (Saint Petersburg and Moscow Region), is described. As a member of the section Fernandae it is characterized by the presence of the intracellular pigment in form of dark brown clots combined with the dark encrusting pigment, and by the clampless hyphae. New species differs from the other members of this section by the combination of the subtomentose to distinctly squamulose pileus with inhabiting Picea abies wood. ITS sequences of both studied specimens have shown their conspecificity in spite of some differences in basidiomata morphology.

A.B. Missuna (1869—1922) was one of the first Russian women geologists. The most part of her scientific works were devoted to Quaternary glacial deposits, which she studied in the basins of Viliy, Dvina, Neman at the territory of Belarus and Litva. She designed the method of the terminal moraines studying and discovered new parts of its distribution. Missuna researched magmatic rocks of the Crimea. She was also the author of the works on fossils: Jurassic corals (13 new species), Carboniferous fishes (1 new species) and Miocene diatoms (2 new genuses and 18 new species). She created Geological cabinet at the Moscow Higher Women's Courses and taught there such subjects as petrography, general geology, paleontology, historiacal geology. She organized and conducted with women students the geological excursions in Moscow region, in Crimea, Urals. She was the first woman teacher of geological subjects in Russian Higher School. A.B.Missuna was a full member of the Imperial Moscow Society of Naturalists, St. Petersburg Mineralogical Society, Geological department of Imperial Society of Nature, Anthropology and Ethnography, as well as the member-founder of Russian Paleontological Society (nowadays Paleontological society at the RAS).

In the present paper, we report the results of a critical revision of the Myxomycetes collection of Young Naturalists Club of Zoological Museum of Moscow State University. The collection consists of 1715 specimens from 142 species in 35 genera, 11 families, and 6 orders. Comprehensive material from Moscow and Moscow Region (1112 specimens), Tver Region (191), and Tyumen Region (112) is presented in the collection. There are also numerous specimens from Irkutsk, Murmansk, Ryazan Regions, and Primorye Territory, and fragmentary collections from Astrakhan, Kaluga, Pskov, Vladimir, Yaroslavl Regions, Altai, Krasnodar, Khabarovsk Territories, Altai and Karelia Republics, as well as Crimean Peninsula and Kingdom of Cambodia (Southeast Asia). During revision we discovered two new species for Russia: Stemonitis uvifera T. Macbr. and Fuligo intermedia T. Macbr. Descriptions and illustrations of these species are presented.
