Investigation of polyandry in honey bees (Apis mellifera) using microsatellites
摘要
Polyandry is a specific phenomenon increasing genetic diversity. To analyze the level of polyandry and to assess the contribution of drones to the genetic diversity of honey bee colonies, three microsatellite loci (A008, Ap049, and AC117) were studied in honey bees from colonies of different origin (Middle Russian race, Carpathian race, and hybrids) in Tomsk Province. The share of the introduced paternal alleles varied between colonies from 6.67 to 28.00%. The highest genetic diversity was observed in hybrid colonies (25–28% of introduced paternal alleles).

Morphology of the head of Sericoderus lateralis (Coleoptera, Corylophidae) with comments on the effects of miniaturization
摘要
The mouthparts and musculature of the head of Sericoderus lateralis are described. It is shown that the mouthparts of minute beetles preserve their complex structure and are not significantly affected by miniaturization. Such stability allows these features to be used in macrosystematics of groups with variable body size.

Features of the structure of hymenoptera associated with miniaturization: 1. Anatomy of the fairyfly Anaphes flavipes (Hymenoptera, Mymaridae)
摘要
Anatomy of the adult fairyfly Anaphes flavipes (Hymenoptera, Mymaridae) is described in detail for the first time, based on series of sections and 3D computer reconstruction. Despite its tiny size, A. flavipes does not demonstrate strong morphological simplification, except for the merging of certain skeletal elements, a slight simplification of endoskeleton, lack of midgut muscles, a reduced number of Malpighian tubules, simplification of the tracheal and circulatory systems, asymmetry of the central nervous system, and the absence of several muscles.

Features of the structure of hymenoptera associated with miniaturization: 2. Anatomy of Trichogramma evanescens (Hymenoptera, Trichogrammatidae)
摘要
Anatomy of adults of Trichogramma evanescens (Hymenoptera: Trichogrammatidae) is described in detail for the first time based on series of sections and 3D computer reconstruction. The complex structure of the exoskeleton and musculature (except for reductions of individual muscles) is preserved in T. evanescens despite its tiny size. Considerable simplification is observed in the structure of the intestine, tracheal and circulatory systems, and in the reduced number of Malpighian tubules. Thus, the smallest Hymenoptera (Mymaridae and Trichogrammatidae) demonstrate both the effects of miniaturization universal for insects (reduction of the head endoskeleton, circulatory and respiratory systems) and specific ones.

A description of the larvae of Cinygmula unicolorata Tshernova, 1979 and Cinygmula malaisei (Ulmer, 1927) (Ephemeroptera, Heptageniidae) from the Russian Far East
摘要
The larvae of Cinygmula malaisei (Ulmer, 1927) and Cinygmula unicolorata Tshernova, 1979 from the Russian Far East are described and illustrated. The larva of Cinygmula unicolorata is similar to those of Cinygmula putoranica Kluge, 1980 and Cinygmula uyka Gorovaya et Tiunova, 2013 but differs from the larva of C. uyka in the absence of gill filaments and from that of C. unicolorata in the shape of the first gill (tergalia). The upper outer margin of the first gill is rounded in the larva of C. unicolorata and almost straight in C. putoranica; the gills of C. unicolorata are matte and the trachea is poorly expressed, in contrast to the distinctly brown trachea of C. putoranica. The larvae of Cinygmula malaisei are similar to those of C. irina and C. autumnalis but differ from the latter in the presence of gill filaments. The larva of C. malaise differs from that of C. irina in the rounded outer margin of the first gill, the shape of gills VI and VII, and in the size of the leg segments.

New species of the aphid tribe Macrosiphini (Homoptera, Aphididae, Aphidinae) from Kazakhstan
摘要
Two new species of the genera Uroleucon Mordvilko, 1914 and Pleotrichophorus Börner, 1930 are described from Kazakhstan. Uroleucon dzhungaricum sp. n. feeding on Senecio nemorensis L. (Asteraceae) in the Dzhungar Ala Tau is closely related to U. minor (Börner, 1940). Both these species differ from the closely related U. solidaginis (Fabricius, 1794) in a smaller length ratio between the processus terminalis and the 3rd antennal segment (0.8–1.0 versus 1.0–1.5). The new species differs from U. minor (Born.) in a greater number of the secondary rhinaria on the 3rd antennal segment of the apterous viviparous females (21–37 versus 15–21), in a fewer number of hairs on the cauda (10–16 and 15–23), and in the host plant. Pleotrichophorus ugamicus Kadyrbekov, sp. n. feeding on Artemisia santolinifolia Turcz. is described from the Sairam-Ugam Natural Park (Southern Kazakhstan). The new species is similar to P. glandulosus (Kaltenbach, 1846) and P. achilleae Holman, 1965. Pleotrichophorus ugamicus sp. n. differs from these species in the length ratio of the processus terminalis to the base of the 6th antennal segment (4.1–5.0 versus 5.0–9.0 and 5.1–6.2), in that of the ultimate rostral segment to the 2nd segment of the hind tarsus (0.68–0.76 versus 0.80–0.97 and 0.80–0.90), and in the host plant. This species differs from P. glandulosus in the ratio of the length of dorsal hairs on tergites I–V to the basal diameter of the 3rd antennal segment (1.0–1.2 and 1.4–1.7). In addition, the new species differs from P. achilleae in the length ratio of the 3rd antennal segment to the 6th segment (0.56–0.66 versus 0.70–0.87) and to the processus terminalis (0.67-0.82 versus 1.39–1.80), as well as in the shape of the dorsal hairs. A key to the Palaearctic species of the genus Pleotrichophorus is presented.

The possibility of using characters of the female genital armature for species diagnostics and classification of the genus Mellicta Billberg, 1820 (Lepidoptera, Nymphalidae): 1. Mellicta athalia (Rottemburg, 1775) species group
摘要
The morphology of female genital armature of seven species of the genus Mellicta belonging to the M. athalia species-group from different localities of their ranges is analyzed. The main distinctive features are described and their variability and use for species identification are assessed. It is shown that some characteristics of female genitalia can be used to clarify the systematic position of species within the genus. Keys to species of the athalia group based on female genitalia are given.

Morphometrical characters of the hypopygium in the Dolichopodidae (Diptera) and their use in the systematics of the family
摘要
Morphology of the hypopygium was investigated in 496 species from 128 genera of the family Dolichopodidae. Based on twenty morphological and morphometrical characteristics, a parsimonic dendrogram of the Dolichopodidae subfamilies was constructed. Variance analysis of the morphometrical data allowed revealing diagnostic characteristics for the subfamilies and genera of Dolichopodidae. Such characteristics as the relative lengths of the epandrium, surstylus, cercus, and apical and basoventral epandrial processes can be used for taxonomic diagnostics of the subfamilies and genera.

A general scheme of circulation of ixodid tick-borne borrelioses pathogens in the natural foci of Eurasia
摘要
A quantitative scheme of the circulation of pathogens of ixodid tick-borne borrelioses is proposed, which may serve as the basis for further computer modeling of the epizootic process. The scheme is based on the general features of the multiyear development cycle of Ixodes persulcatus Shulze, 1930 and I. ricinus L., 1758, which are the main vectors and hosts of borreliae in Eurasia, and on the generalized parameters of their vertical and horizontal transmission.

An annotated catalogue of Geophilomorph centipedes (Myriapoda, Geophilomorpha) of European Russia
摘要
Forty-one species of Geophilomorpha belonging to 17 genera from 6 families are recorded from European Russia. Dicellophilus carniolensis (Koch, 1847) of the family Mecistocephalidae is recorded from the fauna of Russia for the first time. The data of original description, type localities, and the general and local distribution are given for all the species, together with some taxonomic comments. The history of the studies of Geophilomorpha in the region is considered.
