15	V.O. Kozminykh The Catalogue of beetles (Coleoptera) of the Urals and adjacent territories. IV. Staphylinoidea: Hydraenidae, Ptiliidae, Agyrtidae (with brief additions to the previous chapters). SUMMARY. The 4th part of the Сatalogue of beetles (Coleoptera) of the Urals contains an annotated list of Hydraenidae, Ptiliidae and Agyrtidae families (superfamily Staphylinoidea) beetles of the Urals Region with adjacent terri-tories of the Middle Volga Region, the Vyatka-Kama Interfluve, Western Siberia, and Western Kazakhstan. Reference information on the regional faunal composition of Hydraenidae (28 species), Ptiliidae (5 species) and Agyrtidae (2 species) is provided. In the Subpolar Urals (in the Komi Republic) 2 species of Hydraenidae are recorded. In the Northern Urals (in the Komi Republic, northeastern Perm Area, and northwestern Sverd-lovsk Province) 3 species of Hydraenidae and 1 species of Agyrtidae are recorded. In the Middle Urals 11 spe-cies of Hydraenidae and 2 species both of Ptiliidae and Agyrtidae are numbered. For the Southern Urals 26 species of Hydraenidae (4 species in Bashkortostan Republic, 6 species in Chelyabinsk Province, and 22 spe-cies in Orenburg Province) are listed. A summary table of the composition, structure, and distribution of su-praspecific taxa of Hydraenidae, Ptiliidae and Agyrtidae in the Urals Region and adjacent territories is provid-ed. Limnebius crinifer Rey, 1885 (Hydraenidae) and Ptenidium myrmicophilum (Motschulsky, 1845) (Ptiliidae) are first reported for the Urals, and L. parvulus (Herbst, 1797) (Hydraenidae) is found in the Middle Urals for the first time, and these records are based on material from the Perm Area (Perm City). urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:A2C10CC5-D65D-4F41-BF24-ABDC9763104F
32	L.V. Bolshakov, N.N. Ismagilov, N.I. Kamaletdinov, A.M. Nikolaeva, A.B. Ruchin, M.N. Esin, V.S. Okulov Records of new and little known species of Lepidoptera in the regions of European Russia SUMMARY. New data on collection and photograph evidence of 20 new and interesting species of Lepidoptera in different regions of European Russia are presented. Olethreutes captiosanus (Falkovitch, 1960 is recorded as new to Eu-rope (from Penza Province in Middle Volga region); Gynnidomorpha vestisana (Humphreys et Westwood, 1845) and Phycitodes albatella (Ragonot, 1887) as new for Volga-Vyatka region; Pseudopostega auritella (Hübner, [1813]), Biselachista utonella (Frey, 1856), Nothris gregerseni Karsholt et Šumpich, 2015, Gladio-valva aizpuruai Vives, 1990, Atremaea lonchoptera Staudinger, 1871, Phiaris fluviana (Kennel, 1919) (ssp. li-tova Bolshakov, 2024), Pempelia palumbella ([Denis et Schiffermūller], 1775) and Udea languidalis (Evers-mann, 1842) as new for Central Non-chernozemic region; Calamotropha aureliella (Fischer von Röslerstamm, 1841), Argynnis pandora ([Denis et Schiffermūller], 1775), Ponometia candefacta (Hübner, [1831]) and Heliothis incarnata (Freyer, 1838) as new for Central Chernozemic region; Syncopacma wormiella (Wolff, 1958), Gladiovalva aizpuruai Vives, 1990, Filatima djakovica Anikin et Piskunov, 1996, Chionodes ignoratella (Herrich-Schäffer, 1854), Gelechia sabinella (Zeller, 1839) and Neofriseria caucasicella Sattler, 1960 as new for Middle Volga region. urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:F2C423E2-FC40-41A0-87F7-D01CFC614209
37	S.K. Korb The Turanian arid zone as a Pleistocene refugium and the role of the Paratethys basin and Caspian-Aral transgressions in its functioning (using some Lepidoptera species as an example) SUMMARY. Using geographic distribution and DNA (COI) data, it is demonstrated that colonization of the central regions of Kazakhstan by specialized Lepidoptera species (three species were selected as model ones) is impossible. The influence of the Paratethys and Caspian-Aral transgressions is shown to be the cause, leading to poor soil conditions for most butterfly food plant species urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:9835FEA7-FA95-4448-8BBB-A0E18510913F
43	A.V. Pavlov Observations of winter activity of long-legged flies (Diptera: Dolichopodidae) in the Vladimir Province SUMMARY. Observing insects emerging onto the snow, we established the presence of winter activity in four fly species from the family Dolichopodidae. These are Campsicnemus scambus (Fallén, 1823), Dolichopus rupestris Hali-day, 1833, Micromorphus albipes Zetterstedt, 1843 and Thrypticus atomus Frey, 1915. The species most fre-quently encountered during thaws is C. scambus. Summarizing observations on its phenology, we can note the activity of flies throughout the year and confirm the data on overwintering at the imago stage. For D. rupestris, M. albipes and T. atomus, we present information on winter findings for the first time. urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:31E4CF5C-94F2-47B9-8E99-7135470A0713
