Species of the genus Toxeuma Walker, 1833 from Russia are reviewed. A new species, Toxeuma leleji Tselikh, sp. nov., is described from the Russian Far East.

The canaliculatus species group of Stenus (Nestus) is redefined. Four new Palaearctic species of the group are described and illustrated: S. (N.) alopex sp. nov. from the Putorana Highland and Taymyr Peninsula, Russia; S. (N.) canalis sp. nov. from SE Siberia and the Russian Far East; S. (N.) canosus sp. nov. from the Narat Mt Ridge, Chinese Tien Shan; S. (N.) delitor sp. nov. from C & SE Siberia. New distributional data as well as brief analyses of old records for fourteen species described earlier are provided from both Palaearctic and Nearctic material. S. (N.) milleporus Casey, 1884 (= sectilifer Casey, 1884) is revalidated as a species propria. S. (N.) sphaerops Casey, 1884 is redescribed; its aedeagus is figured for the first time; the aedeagus of S. (N.) caseyi Puthz, 1972 as well as aedeagi of eight previously described Palaearctic species are illustrated anew. A key for the identification of all the known Palaearctic species of the group is given. A morphology and ecology based analysis of the main evolutionary trends within the group is provided. A lectotype is designated for S. (N.) melanopus Marsham, 1802; its Siberian and NE European records are supposed to be erroneous; the monotypic melanopus species group is erected.

The eastern Palaearctic species of the genus Janssoniella Kerrich, 1957 are reviewed. Four new species, Janssoniella albiclava Tselikh et Lee, sp. nov. and J. kawabatai Tselikh, sp. nov. (from South Korea and Japan), J. magna Tselikh et Lee, sp. nov. (from South Korea and the Russian Far East), and J. rachini Tselikh, sp. nov. (from Japan and the Russian Far East), are described and illustrated. The male of J. notata Kamijo, 1960 is described for the first time. Janssoniella caudata Kerrich, 1957 is newly recorded from eastern Siberia. An identification key to females of the six eastern Palaearctic species of Janssoniella is given.

The family Micronoctuidae and the genus Micronoctua Fibiger, 1997 are reported from the Russian Far East and neighbouring countries for the first time. The family is represented in the region by two species in the genera Mimachrostia Sugi, 1982 and Micronoctua both occurring in Russian Far East, Korea, China and Japan. The northern distribution limit of the family Micronoctuidae is the middle of the Amur River (50°31΄N, 137°035΄E), reached by Mimachrostia fasciata Sugi, 1982. The new species, Micronoctua occi, sp. n. is described from Russian Far East, the Korean peninsula, China and the Tsushima Islands of Japan. The male and female genitalia are illustrated and compared with those of Micronoctua karsholti. Distribution maps for the two species are presented.

Stygomomonia (S.) manchurica sp. n. (Acari: Hydrachnidia: Momoniidae) from the Kedrovaya River, Primory Territory of the Russian Far East is described. The affinity of the new species to its congeners is discussed with emphasis on biogeographical relationships. An annotated checklist of the subgenus Stygomomonia and geographical map of the distribution of Palaearctic species of this subgenus is compiled using published records.

A review of Globimesosoma Xiao et Huang, 2001 is given. The genus is recorded from the Palaearctic region for the first time. A new species, Globimesosoma amurense sp. nov., is described from the Russian Far East. Type material of the only previously known Oriental species, Globimesosoma yaoarum Xiao et Huang, 2001, is redescribed and illustrated. A key for the two known species of Globimesosoma is provided.

The Palaearctic xiphydriid genus Konowia Brauns, 1884, is redefined and the component species are revised on the basis of a close examination of stability and taxonomic use of previously used and newly introduced characters. A new genus, Monoxiphia, is proposed for Konowia harai Shinohara, 2019, from Japan (Monoxiphia harai (Shinohara, 2019), n. comb.) and Xiphydriola Semenov-Tian-Shanskij, 1921, is synonymized with Konowia. Konowia is represented by the following four species: K. betulae (Enslin, 1911) from Europe, through Siberia, Korea to Japan (Hokkaido, Kunashiri Is.), K. kojimai, n. sp., from Japan (Hokkaido, Honshu), K. megapolitana Brauns, 1884 from Europe to the Russian Far East, and K. yasumatsui (Togashi, 1972) from Japan (Honshu, Shikoku, Kyushu). Xiphydriola amurensis Semenov-Tian-Shanskij, 1921, and Platyxiphydria nishijimai Togashi, 1998, are synonymized with K. betulae and a new species, K. kojimai, is described from Japan. Konowia yasumatsui is newly recorded from Honshu and Shikoku and the male of this species is described for the first time. A key to separate Monoxiphia, Konowia and four Konowia species is provided. 


For the first time, a comparative analysis of the tachinid fauna of the Phasiinae subfamily of the Russian Far East with the fauna of neighboring regions has been presented. The Phasiinae fauna of the Primorsky Krai (Far East of Russia) is characterized as peculiar but closest to the fauna of the southern part of Khabarovsk Krai, Amur Oblast and Eastern Siberia. The following groups of regions have been identified: Southern, Western and Eastern Siberia; Amur Oblast and Primorsky Krai, which share many common Holarctic and Transpalaearctic species.Special mention should be made of the fauna of the Khabarovsk Krai, Sakhalin Oblast, which are characterized by poor species composition and Japan (having a subtropical appearance).

The three species and two subspecies of the Evagetes crassicornis species-group are reviewed. A new species, Evagetes orientalis, sp. nov., is described and illustrated from the Russian Far East. A lectotype of Pompilus sahlbergi F. Morawitz 1893 is redescribed. Evagetes crassicornis crassicornis (Shuckard) is recorded for the first time from Ukraine, Georgia, Kazakhstan, and Alaska. A key is presented for both sexes of this species-group.
