The prosecutor's judicial protection of public interests in the use and protection of specially protected natural territories as a complex area of prosecutorial activity

The article deals with the topical issue of highlighting the complex direction of prosecutorial activity – the protection by the prosecutor in court of public interest in the use and protection of specially protected natural territories based on the scope of legal relations and the purpose of the activity. Taking into account the available theoretical approaches, the author proves that three criteria are basis for the allocation: 1) the complex nature of the legal regulation of the sphere of use and protection of specially protected natural territories; 2) the need to adopt a set of means of prosecutorial activity for violations of the regime of use and protection of specially protected natural territories in court; 3) the unity of the factual circumstances to be established in criminal, civil, arbitration, administrative cases, cases of administrative offences on the facts of violation of the regime of use and protection of specially protected natural territories, which in turn allows, firstly, the collected evidence to be used in criminal, civil, arbitration, administrative proceedings, in proceedings on administrative offences (respectively, unified approaches to collecting and fixing evidentiary information are required), secondly, the prejudice of judicial decisions. The allocation of an integrated direction makes it possible to improve the quality of the organisation and implementation of judicial protection of public interest in the use and protection of specially protected natural territories.

Corydalis marschalliana (Pallas ex. willd.) Pers. (Fumariaceae) in the Eastern Donbass

The results of the studies of Corydalis marschalliana (Pallas ex. Willd.) Pers. in the Eastern part of the Donbass (Lugask and Donetsk regions) are provided in the research. The fact that in the Eastern part of Donbass region C. marschalliana grows in 60 locations (33 locations are in the Lugansk region and 27 ones are in the Donetsk region) was established. 19 of them were discovered by the author of the research. Environmental conditions in the studied region were described. Corydalis marschalliana biomorphological characteristics, area and growth conditions are given. Environmental history was studied; map charts and species distribution lists on the territory of the Eastern part of Donbass region were made. Cenopopulation studies of Corydalis marschalliana were carried out. The article gives the data about studied species protection on the specially protected natural territories of the Eastern part of Donbass region, the ways of possible rational usage of this species are indicated. It was concluded that C. marschalliana does not need personal protection on the territory of the Eastern part of Donbass region.

On the issue of the limits of the prosecutor's activity for the protection of public interest in the sphere of use and protection of specially protected natural territories in court

The article deals with the topical problem of determining the limits of the cross-complex non-Supervisory direction of the Prosecutor's activity for the protection of public interest in the sphere of use and protection of specially protected natural territories (hereinafter – protected areas). In accordance with the law, protection is provided by the Prosecutor in all types of legal proceedings – constitutional, criminal, civil, arbitration, administrative, including proceedings on administrative offences. The precise definition of the limits of the Prosecutor's activity under study is necessary for the formation of a unified approach to the optimal organisation of work, the implementation of all the powers granted to the Prosecutor and the selection of adequate means of prosecutorial response for effective judicial protection of public interest in the use and protection of protected areas. The author analyses the provisions of Federal legislation and organisational and administrative documents of the Prosecutor General of the Russian Federation, scientists’ points of view on the content of external and internal limits of Prosecutor's supervision and non-Supervisory areas of Prosecutor's activity, available in the literature. Based on the research, the author draws conclusions about the limits of this activity, and she offers a list of grounds on which the protection of public interest is carried out exclusively in court.

Species Composition Features of Zoopankton in Mineralized Water Bodies from Specially Protected Natural Territories in Ulug-Khem Basin (Republic of Tuva)

The species composition of zooplankton in mineralized water bodies located in the Ulug-Khem basin (Republic of Tuva) was studied. These lakes have the status of natural monuments of regional significance. In total we recorded 53 species of microscopic Custaceans and Rotifers from 32 genera, 13 families, and 8 orders. Cladocera comprises 53% of the species. The dependence of the species diversity on the level of mineralization was revealed; 89% of the species were found in brackish water bodies. The zooplankton composition of the hyperhaline lakes Dus-Khol (Svatikovo) and Cheder has remained constant for many dozen years. The zooplankton includes some species known only from Republic of Tuva in Russia, namely, Microcyclops afganicus and Macrotrix tabrizensis. M. asiaticus and Alona irinae, rare for the fauna of Russia, live in the lake Haak-Hol. A decrease in the total numbers of zooplankton is observed in the lakes, namely: in the lake Dus-Khol, it has decreased by 4 times, in the lake Khadyn it has decreased by 10–19 times as compared to the middle of the last century. Despite the lack of intermediate information, we regard this as a consequence of anthropogenic impact. The emergence of an indicator of pollution (Brachionus nilsoni) in the lake Khadin confirms this version. At the same time, the stable finding of species rare for the fauna of Russia indicates the presence of favorable conditions for their development and life, which increases the value of the reservoirs themselves, which are already unique natural objects.
