The fauna of Dolichopodidae in the Arkhangelsk Region was studied sporadically and currently in-cludes 50 species. Onezhskoye Pomorye National Park (Arkhangelsk Region, Russia) was established in 2013 to protect the pristine forests and coastal ecosystems of the hardly accessible territories along the White Sea coast of the Onega Peninsula. The insect fauna of the National Park was almost un-known until recently, with only 17 Diptera species from the Culicidae and Chironomidae families listed in the online cadaster. During the short expedition to Onezhskoye Pomorye National Park in July–August 2020, more than 350 Dolichopodidae specimens were collected with yellow pan traps and sweep netting on routes that mainly passed through coastal habitats. Nineteen species of Dolichopodi-dae have been reported for the first time from this territory. Thirteen species are reported for the first time from the Arkhangelsk region, bringing the total number of known species to 63. The species list is given and supplied with brief comments on habitat and distribution. Photos of some typical habitats are provided. Most of the discovered species are widespread throughout the Palaearctic Region. Rarer species include Dolichopus diadema, which probably represents a southern Palaearctic element, and Hydrophorus norvegicus, which was previously known only from Fennoscandia.

The Jaú National Park, located in the Amazon, is the largest National Park of Brazil and still its insect fauna is barely known. Herein we describe two new species of Psychodinae, Alepia iy sp. nov. and Parasetomima timmirima sp. nov., and report 19 other species of Psychodidae, subfamilies Phlebotominae, Psychodinae and Trichomyiinae collected from this Conservation Unit. Micrommatos Quate & Brown, represented by M. stephaniae Quate & Brown, and Platyplastinx culmosus Quate & Brown are recorded for the first time for Brazil. Among the collected phlebotomine sand fly species, three species have previously been implicated in transmission of Leishmania: Nyssomyia anduzei (Rozeboom), Psychodopygus ayrozai (Barretto & Coutinho) and Trichophoromyia ubiquitalis (Mangabeira).

Abstract Few digeneans of the family Fellodistomidae are known from the Russian Arctic seas. The taxonomic status of these species, their life cycles and host range raised recurrent questions, some of which remain unanswered. To revise the species composition and life cycles of fellodistomids in the White Sea, we searched for them in several known and suspected hosts: wolffish, flatfishes (definitive), gastropods of the family Buccinidae (second intermediate) and protobranch bivalves (first intermediate). Species identification was based both on morphology and 28S ribosomal RNA gene sequences. We found Fellodistomum agnotum in the White Sea for the first time. Buccinum undatum was proved to be intermediate host of both F. agnotum and Fellodistomum fellis, and metacercariae of F. fellis were registered from two more buccinid species: Buccinum scalariforme and Neptunea despecta. We also found metacercariae of F. agnotum and F. fellis producing eggs in the second intermediate host. Two fellodistomids were found in protobranch bivalves: sporocysts and cercariae of Steringophorus furciger in Nuculana pernula, and sporocysts with large furcocercous cercariae in Ennucula tenuis. The latter were identified as F. agnotum by molecular analysis; thus, the entire life cycle of this species was reconstructed.

The problem of protecting rare communities in the vegetation cover still remains poorly studied. Currently, it is relevant for aquatic and coastal aquatic plant communities of lakes and river estuaries of the Arkhangelsk Region. Two critical criteria were used to distinguish rare communities: 1) protected species are cenosis-formers, 2) species that were first noted outside the northern border of the ranges are either cenosis-formers, or abundant in the composition of communities. The first criterion includes communities with species listed in the Red Data Books of the Russian Federation (2008) and the Arkhangelsk Region (), if these species are significant from the point of phytocenosis. The last includes taxa and plant populations of the Arkhangelsk Region that need special attention to their state in the natural environment and are recommended for bio-surveillance. The second criterion includes the communities of the Glycerietum fluitantis association located on the coast of the Pechora Inlet, which were described here for the first time. The communities’ habitats are water bodies that differ significantly in hydrological conditions. Lobelietum dsortmannae, Isoëto lacustris–Lobelietum dortmannii, Isoëto echinosporae–Lobelietum dortmannae, Lobelieto dortmannae–Phragmitetum australis, Lobelieto dortmannae–Caricetum rostratae, Fontinalieto dalecarlicae–Phragmitetum australis, Fontinalieto dalecarlicae–Nupharetum lutea associations are typical for oligotrophic and oligo-mesotrophic lakes of the hydrocarbonate class with low water salinity. Nympheto candidae–Nupharetum pumilae, Potamogeneto natantis–Nymphaeetum tetragonae, Chareto virgatae–Scirpetum lacustris associations are identified in eutrophic and mesotrophic lakes. Communities of Chareto strigosae–Charetum asperae, Charetum subspinosae, Chareto subspinosae–Phragmitetum australis charosum subspinosae associations develop in sulfate lakes with increased water salinity. Ruppietum maritimae, Glycerietum fluitantis purum, Hippurideto tetraphillae–Glycerietum, and Zannichellia pedunculata communities are typical for river estuaries. We have described most of the rare communities for specially protected natural areas of the Arkhangelsk Region: in the Kenozero National Park, the Onega Pomorie National Park, the Pinezhskiy Nature Reserve, the Nenetskiy Nature Reserve, and the Pakhanchenskiy Nature Reserve. At the end of the article, some recommendations for the protection of rare communities are given. They are useful for monitoring such species in protected areas. The protection of rare communities is based on the principle that any species that is part of the community is its integral part. The destruction of cenosis-forming species leads to the disappearance of both an integral unique community and protected species as a part of it, regardless of whether they are phytocenotically significant, or grow singularly within the community.

This paper reports on the lithological, micropaleontological, and chronometric data (radiocarbon dating) for one of the areas of the White Sea coast. The sedimentary sequences were studied in the current lake basins, which were separated from the large basin at different times. The basin was situated in the head of the current Onega Bay. On the basis of these data, the bottom sediments were stratified and the Late Pleistocene-Holocene paleogeographic settings were reconstructed for the southeastern part of Onega Bay.

AbstractAn Ediacaran assemblage dominated by an unidentified species ofCyclomedusaSprigg 1947, along with species ofEdiacaria?Sprigg 1947,BeltanellaSprigg 1947,HiemaloraFedonkin 1982, andNimbia?Fedonkin 1980, is described for the first time from the Innerelv Member of the Stappogiedde Formation exposed in coastal outcrops west of Tanafjorden on Digermul Peninsula, in northeastern Finnmark, northern Norway. The fossil assemblage is dominated by discoidal forms which share certain affinities with the cosmopolitan genera.CyclomedusaandEdiacaria. However, our specimens differ from these and other discoidal Ediacaran fossils in the absence of radial sculpture. This, along with a basically concentric organization, are characteristics shared withKullingiafrom the Dividal Group of northern Scandinavia, the White Sea, Podolia, and northwestern Canada, along with undescribed discoidal remains from the Charnian Supergroup, Charnwood Forest, Leicestershire, England, and the Conception Group, Avalon Peninsula, Newfoundland.Our discovery of an Ediacaran-type assemblage within the Middle Innerelv Member provides support for previous suggestions of a late Vendian age for this sequence. This general conclusion is consistent with the occurrence of early Cambrian taxa, including the trace fossilPhycodes, and the problematical formsVendotaeniaandSabellidites,in basal portions of the Lower Breivik Formation, within the same stratigraphie section. The lowest formally-proposed faunal zone in northern Scandinavia is theKullingiaZone, based on the occurrence of the fossil medusoidKullingia concentricain Member III (Middle Sandstone C) of the Dividal Group, northern Scandinavia.Kullingiais a distinctly chambered form that was probably pelagic. In contrast,Cyclomedusa,and related genera of the so-calledCyclomedusaplexus, comprise an informal grouping of intergrading, probably benthic, taxa that possess radial and/or concentric organization. In light of the intergradational nature of taxa, present difficulties in taxonomic interpretation and correlation, and the abundance of cyclomedusoids in many Ediacaran assemblages, we suggest that the concept of theKullingiaZone, as originally defined for northern Scandanavia, be broadened to include the common form genera of theCyclomedusaplexus, inclusive of the occurrences in the Innerelv Member described herein. It is our hope that additional fieldwork will provide a basis for more refined taxonomic evaluations and biozonation.
