“…On the basis of such biological characteristics as the considerable presence of the families Heptageniidae, Ephemerellidae, and Leptophlebiidae (Table 1), group 7 can be assigned to rithral. Similar difficulties with the applicability of the system of Illies and Botosaneanu (1963) for watercourses of the Russian Far East and eastern Siberia have already been discussed by Levanidova (1982). In this previous study, in these regions, many watercourses were characterized by a combination of high summer water temperature with rithron benthic elements, which is comparable to the present results.…”

“…Studies that describe in detail the altitude-dependent structure of mayfly assemblages are more rare than those broadly focused on entire macroinvertebrate communities and using relatively high levels of taxonomic identifications (e.g. genus or family; but see Dodds & Hisaw 1925;Kamler 1967;Brodsky 1980;Levanidova 1982;Ward 1986). For Asia, knowledge about the ecology of Ephemeroptera is particularly limited, and for the temperate zone in Asia only the monograph by Levanidova (1982) describes mayfly assemblage compositions in relation to environmental parameters.…”

“…However, knowledge about mayflies and other stream macroinvertebrates in Siberia and Asia is extremely limited. For the temperate zone in Asia, only a monograph by Levanidova (1982) describes mayfly assemblage composition in relation to environmental parameters. However, this study is purely descriptive and does not analyze the general relationships between environmental factors and biological communities.…”

“…Mayflies (Ephemeroptera) are an important and abundant component of stream macroinvertebrate communities (Ward 1992). The spatial distribution of these organisms is known to be dependent on the natural altitude/longitude environmental gradient (Dodds & Hisaw 1925;Kamler 1967;Brodsky 1980;Levanidova 1982;Ward 1986) as well as influenced by anthropogenic factors or stressors (Beketov 2004).…”

In recent decades, the relationships between environmental conditions and community structures of stream macroinvertebrates have been investigated in many parts of the world. However, knowledge about assemblages of mayflies and other stream macroinvertebrates in Siberia (northern Asia) and Asia is limited. In fact, the patterns in mayfly species richness and assemblage structure in relation to environmental parameters have not been previously examined in western Siberia. The aim of the present study was to examine the relationship between Ephemeroptera community structure and physical parameters along a river altitude/ longitude gradient in Siberia. The results showed that maximum species richness was at relatively low altitudes, high water temperatures, slow current velocities, medium stream widths, medium-small substrate particle size, and the presence of macrophytes. The mayfly assemblage was separated using TWINSPAN classification into eight distinct groups, which differed significantly with respect to at least one measured environmental factor. Multivariate ordination (detrended correspondence analysis) revealed that mayfly assemblages are structured by a single dominant gradient of altitude-related environmental variables; altitude and water temperature were the best predictors. Ordination further revealed that mayfly assemblages are structured by altitude-related environmental factors at high elevations, whereas in the lowlands these factors are less important.

The caddisfly fauna of 10 Protected Natural Areas (PNAs) in the southern part of the Russian Far East (9 on the continental part of Primorye Territory, and 1 on Kunashir Island, South Kuriles) were investigated and analyzed based on our own and literature data. The total caddisfly species list of studied PNAs includes 310 species of 90 genera, belonging to 26 families. The Sikhote-Alin Nature Reserve is habitat for 97 species, Udege Legend − 56, Khankaysky − 119, Ussuriisky − 93, Lazovsky − 68, Tiger Call − 42, Kedrovaya Pad − 93, Leopard Land − 80, Far Eastern Marine − 59, and Kurilsky − 87. One hundred fifty-two species are added to lists of caddisflies in studied PNAs including, 5 in Sikhote-Alin, 40 in Udege Legend, 15 in Khankaysky, 11 in Ussuriisky, 8 in Lazovsky, 18 in Tiger Call, 2 in Kedrovaya Pad, 27 in Leopard Land, and 17 in Far Eastern Marine. Among 28 endemic and rare species, some are recommended for inclusion in the Russian Red Lists. A comparison of Trichoptera faunas showed the highest similarity between mountain, forested, well-investigated PNAs: Sikhote-Alin, Kedrovaya Pad, and Ussuriisky. The most distinctive caddisfly fauna is in the insular, southeasternmost Kurile Nature Reserve (63.2% specificity relative to other studied PNAs), and in the unforested lowland Khankaysky Nature Reserve (34.7% specificity). Comparisons of the species lists of closely located areas without accounting for longitudinal distribution of organisms and landscape peculiarities largely helps to identify faunal-landscape complexes, rather than biogeographic differences among faunas. All caddisfly species discovered in the PNAs are considered inhabitants of clean waters and their Tolerance Values are estimated from 0 to 4 (on a scale of 0 to 10) as a starting point.
