The Republic

Information is presented on incidence of the Clouded Apollo Parnassius mnemosyne in the Republic of Mordovia (Russia).  Over the period 2006–2016, more than 30 sites of the species were identified.  The main increase in the number from 2 to 22 specimens per 1km of route was observed in 2006–2011.  Biotopes of the species, fodder plants of the imago, and measures for species protection are described.

Time Limitations

The immature stages of the Clouded Apollo (Parnassius mnemosyne) are assumed to be thermophilic due to the possible time limitations and variable weather conditions during their development. Thus, the degree of canopy coverage may affect habitat use by the species. We explored the spatial distribution of larvae and the development time of pupae under variable canopy coverage conditions. Larvae were most abundant in the areas exposed to direct sunlight, although the last instar larvae are mobile. Larvae also basked under litter between their for aging periods, probably to enhance digestion and the food intake rate. Moreover, pupal developmentwas retarded by increasing canopy coverage. Prolonged pupal development and larval avoidance of Corydalis growths under tree canopies indicate that the species suffers from overgrowing and consequently increasing canopy coverage.

First Time

The first regional checklist of moths and butterflies of Arkhangelsk oblast of Russia includes 1,036 species (538 species of microlepidoptera and 498 species of macrolepidoptera), 496 of which have been found in the oblast for the first time. The most interesting records include Gnorimoschema robustella, Caryocolum leucomelanella, Dichrorampha sequana, D. uralensis, Neptis rivularis and Melitaea phoebe. We also discovered several populations of Parnassius mnemosyne in the southern part of the oblast. The fauna of Arkhangelsk oblast appears poorer than the fauna of Northern Ural Mts. but still includes some Siberian taiga species which do not reach Fennoscandia. Also, the distribution limits of several species extend further north in Arkhangelsk oblast than in the more western parts of Europe.We estimate that 500 to 800 species remain to be found in the study region.

AbstractMorphological variation in Parnassius mnemosyne (Linnaeus, 1758) was studied using 20 measurements of the wing shape, venation and coloration in males and females of eastern Fennoscandian populations. The type specimens were analysed. The results were related to the previous subspecific division proposed by Bryk. The results suggest that the type specimens (nominate ssp.) can be classified together with the populations from southwestern Finland. The populations of the Åland archipelago seem to form a distinctive group (ssp. ugrofennica Bryk), differing from both the nominate subspecies and the Swedish ssp. romani Bryk. The results on the Karelian material agree well with Bryk's classification (ssp. karjala, ssp. poppii). The only Finnish inland population at Somero differs only slightly from other SW Finnish populations. The loss of populations in Finland has not resulted in losses of taxa at a subspecific level.
