Trolliusaustrosibiricus Erst & Luferov, sp. nov., a new species from Russian South Siberia is described and illustrated. This new species is endemic to Western and Central Siberia. Morphologically, it is close to the East Asian species T.chinensis and T.macropetalus. However, it differs from the aforementioned species due to the morphology of the rhizomes, aerial shoots, sepals and petals. This species is also distinguished from T.asiaticus, which is widespread in Russia (Western and Eastern Siberia), Mongolia, China, north-eastern Kazakhstan and in the northeast of the European part of Russia, in having a smaller number of sepals, longer persistent styles and petals longer than sepals. In addition, an identification key for all Russian species is given and all species have been discussed.

The Noctuidae fauna of Kazakhstan is species-rich and still poorly studied. During a lepidopterological expedition to Almaty Region in the south-eastern part of Kazakhstan, a single female of an unknown Noctuidae species belonging to the subfamily Oncocnemidinae was collected by the senior author of the present paper. The species resembles externally members of the genus Lophoterges Hampson, 1906, especially Lophoterges fatua (Püngeler, 1904), but examination of its genitalia structure revealed that the species is not only undescribed and remarkably different from all known Lophoterges species, but belongs to another genus, Epimecia Guenée, 1839. Up to date, the genus Epimecia was considered as monotypic (Ronkay & Ronkay 1995; Kononenko 2016) and included only Epimecia ustula (Freyer, 1835), which is widely but disjunctively distributed from south-eastern France through the southern Alps, the Balkans, Turkey, Ukraine, southern European part of Russia and western Kazakhstan to southern Ural, north-eastern Kazakhstan and southern Siberia (Ronkay & Ronkay 1995; Kononenko 2016; Titov et al. 2017). The second, peculiar Kazakhstan species of the genus is described below as new.

The Evaniidae from the Russian fauna is reviewed. Three ensign or hatchet wasp genera and species occur only in the European part of Russia (West of Urals Mountains): Brachygaster minutus (Olivier, 1791), Evania dimidiata Spinola, 1838, and Prosevania fuscipes (Illiger, 1807). Species were also recorded in the following countries for the first time: B. minutus in Abkhazia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and in the numerous localities of the European part of Russia; Evania dimidiata in North Caucasus of Russia (Dagestan); Prosevania fuscipes in Abkhazia. A new species with distinct sexual dimorphism, Brachygaster gussakovskiji sp. nov., is described from Tajikistan and Uzbekistan.

A new bristletail species, Allopsontus ilyai sp. nov., is described from Eastern Kazakhstan. It is most similar to A. smelyanskii Kaplin described from Orenburg Region (Russia). The main differences between these species consist in the color of the eyes, structure of the paired ocelli, legs, urosternites, urocoxites VIII and IX. A key to the subgenera and species of the genus Allopsontus from Kazakhstan is given.
