Bumble bees represent one of the most important groups pollinators. In addition to their ecological and economic relevance, they are also a highly charismatic group which can help increase interest people in realizing, enjoying conserving natural systems. However, like animals, bum- ble sensitive climate. this atlas, maps depicting potential risks climate change for bumble shown together with informative summary statistics, back- ground information picture each European species.

New faunistic records of Sylvicola (Diptera: Anisopodidae) are presented. (Sylvicola) cinctus (Fabricius, 1787) and S. (Anisopus) fuscatus 1775) recorded from Romania for the first time. An identification key illustrations Romanian species
Seven species of the family Corydalidae (Insecta: Megaloptera) are newly recorded from Myanmar, including a new dobsonfly genus Protohermes van der Weele, 1907, P. burmanus sp. nov. A total 18 Megaloptera now known Myanmar.
Abstract Bumblebees in Europe have been steady decline since the 1900s. This is expected to continue with climate change as main driver. However, at local scale, land use and cover ( LULC ) strongly affects occurrence of bumblebees. At present, rarely included models future distributions species. study's objective compare roles dynamic on projected distribution patterns 48 European bumblebee species for three scenarios until 2100 scales Europe, Belgium, Netherlands Luxembourg BENELUX ).

Abstract Wildfires considerably affect forest ecosystems. However, there is a lack of data on the post-fire status insect communities in these This paper presents results study conducted 2019 which considered fauna Protected Area, Mordovia State Nature Reserve (Republic Mordovia, centre European Russia), as regional hotspot diversity Mordovia. We sampled insects intact (unburned, control) and fire-damaged (burnt 2010) sites compared alpha-diversity between sites. In total, we analysed 16,861...
In this paper we provide a new list of all the mollusc species recorded outdoors in Czech and Slovak Republics. This work is supplement Ložek’s key on molluscs former Czechoslovakia. For after publishing book, publications their first records Republics are given.

Abstract Aim Understanding the role of enemy release in biological invasions requires an assessment invader's home range, number invasion events and prevalence. The common wasp ( Vespula vulgaris ) is a widespread invader. We sought to determine Eurasian origin this examined world‐wide populations for microsporidian pathogen infections investigate release. Location Argentina, Eurasia, New Zealand. Methods A haplotype network phylogenetic tree were constructed from combined COI cytb...
We have studied the fauna of several Diptera families caught with beer traps.In this paper, 36 species from 12 are reported: four Anisopodidae, one Bibionidae, Clusiidae, two Dryomyzidae, 11 Lauxaniidae, five Limoniidae, Megamerinidae, three Pallopteridae, Piophilidae, Platystomatidae, Sciomyzidae, and Ulidiidae.From these species, new for Russia (Calliopum splendidum, Homoneura biumbrata, Sapromyza schnabli, all Lauxaniidae), European (Sylvicola fuscatoides (Anisopodidae), Myennis sibirica...
The study of the insect distribution in geographical areas is relevant since it important terms understanding global trend biodiversity decline. paper presents results a on six species Panorpidae (Mecoptera), carried out 2008, 2009, 2011, 2015, 2017–2020. One part data was collected by authors. Other material provided colleagues from 11 regions Russia. In European Russia, Panorpa are reliably known, namely alpina, P. cognata, communis, germanica, hybrida, and vulgaris. most common frequently...
The nature conservation depends on the completeness of knowledge about biodiversity in study area. Today, data distribution and diversity Diptera taxa remain fragmentary. This paper supplements species Europe, Russia, Republic Mordovia. We have studied 1321 specimens 241 collected 2013–2022. Among them, there are species, which new for Russia (Neoempheria brevilineata, Desmometopa discipalpis) both Europe (Nepphyllomyza flavescensis, Phyllomyza auriculatusa, P. luteipalpis, orbita, piceus,...
The aim of our study is to describe and visualise the spread two non-indigenous land snail species Cepaea nemoralis Monacha cartusiana in Czech Republic during more than 100 years period. Several factors play an important role changes distribution these species: ecological (climate change), ethological (passive dispersal potencial) economic (increasing traffic as a vector spreading). spreading M. has rapidly increasing trend. More half sites were colonised by this 2000–2010. While C. been...
Insect pollinators are a key component of biodiversity; they also play major role in the reproduction many species wild plants and crops. It is widely acknowledged that insect threatened by environmental pressures, mostly anthropogenic nature. Their decline global phenomenon. A better understanding their distribution can help monitoring ultimately facilitate conservation actions. Since we only have partial knowledge where pollinator occur, possibility to predict suitable conditions from...
New and interesting records of 60 Diptera species in ten families, namely Anisopodidae, Blephariceridae, Campichoetidae, Dixidae, Drosophilidae, Limoniidae, Lonchopteridae, Pediciidae, Psychodidae Scatopsidae, are presented this paper based on the specimens collected Azerbaijan Georgia. A total 26 recorded for first time Transcaucasia, 32 Azerbaijan, 33 In addition, or updated checklists above families given these countries.
In the period 2001–2004, several hundreds of underground shelters (mainly abandoned galleries, caves, and cellars) in W SW Bohemia (Czech Republic) were explored for insect cadavers with visible fungal growth. At 27 localities, 94 infected six taxa collected. The most frequent insects Triphosa dubitata, Scoliopteryx libatrix (Lepidoptera; Geometridae Noctuidae, resp.) unidentifed mosquitoes (Diptera, Culicidae). On collected cadavers, altogether 20 species microfungi (including sterile...
Our study focuses on the investigation of ecological aspects (seasonal dynamics, height distribution, and preference biotopes) six species within genus Panorpa (P. alpina Rambur, 1842, P. cognata communis Linnaeus, 1758, germanica hybrida MacLachlan, 1882, vulgaris Imhoff & Labram, 1845). The observed seasonal dynamics predominantly display a monovoltine nature. was active from early days May, with individuals persisting until beginning October.
