“…Plavilshchikov (1964) summarised the knowledge of insects including Diptera from the territory of the Mordovia State National Reserve, and Feoktistov (2011) published new records for the Republic of Mordovia. Recently, the results of systematic studies of some Diptera families were published, including Bombyliidae (Chursina & Ruchin, 2018a), Syrphidae (Chursina & Ruchin, 2018b), Asilidae (Astakhov et al, 2019), Limoniidae, Pediciidae, and Tipulidae (Pilipenko et al, 2020). The purpose of the current study was to analyse the fauna of selected Diptera groups caught using beer traps.…”

“…However, the ranges of many species are being studied continuously. Information about the distribution of species and families extends every year (Chursina & Ruchin, 2018a,b;Martín-Park et al, 2018;Astakhov et al, 2019;Gladun, 2019;Pilipenko et al, 2020;Mutin, 2020;Vikhrev et al, 2020). Diptera larvae of different families are found in various terrestrial and aquatic habitats, and can inhabit the tissues of plants and animals; many of them are saproxylic (Martín-Vega & Baz, 2013;Grichanov & Khruleva, 2018;Krivosheina & Krivosheina, 2019).…”

We have studied the fauna of several Diptera families caught with beer traps. In this paper, 36 species from 12 Diptera families are reported: four species of Anisopodidae, one species of Bibionidae, one species of Clusiidae, two species of Dryomyzidae, 11 species of Lauxaniidae, five species of Limoniidae, one species of Megamerinidae, three species of Pallopteridae, one species of Piophilidae, one species of Platystomatidae, four species of Sciomyzidae, and two species of Ulidiidae. From these species, three are new for Russia (Calliopum splendidum, Homoneura biumbrata, Sapromyza schnabli, all Lauxaniidae), two new for European Russia (Sylvicola fuscatoides (Anisopodidae), Myennis sibirica (Ulidiidae)). For the Republic of Mordovia and the Mordovia State Nature Reserve, the families Anisopodidae, Clusiidae, Megamerinidae, Pallopteridae, Piophilidae, Platystomatidae, Ulidiidae, and all Lauxaniidae species published in this list are recorded for the first time. Two species from the family Limoniidae (Achyrolimonia neonebulosa and Discobola parvispinula) and three species from the family Sciomyzidae (Euthycera chaerophylli, Tetanocera ferruginea and T. freyi) are recorded for the first time for the territory of the Mordovia State Nature Reserve. Beer traps can be recommended as one of the successful methods for future surveys of Diptera in the area of interest.

“…For Republic of Mordovia fairly detailed lists of species were published only for families Asilidae (Astakhov et al, 2019), Simuliidae (Budaeva & Ruchin, 2014), Bombyliidae (Chursina & Ruchin, 2018a), Syrphidae (Chursina & Ruchin, 2018b), Limoniidae, Pediciidae and Tipulidae (Pilipenko et al, 2020;Dvorak et al, 2020). The Mordovian fauna of other families of Diptera is still poorly studied.…”

A list of 55 species of Diptera from families Tanypezidae (1 species), Megamerinidae (1), Acroceridae (1), Psilidae (5), Lonchaeidae (8), Strongylophthalmyiidae (1), Ephydridae (21) Scathophagidae (17 species) collected in the Republic of Mordovia is given. Of them Protearomyia withersi MacGowan, 2014 and Lonchaea baechlii MacGowan, 2016 are recorded from Russia for the first time. Five species, namely Megamerina dolium Fabricius, 1805, Lonchaea carpathica Kovalev, 1974, Ephydra scholtzi Becker, 1896, Strongylophthalmyia pictipes Frey, 1935 and Chamaepsila bicolor (Meigen, 1826), are new for Central part of European Russia. The families Acroceridae, Megamerinidae, Psilidae, Tanypezidae and Strongylophthalmyiidae as well as 53 species are recorded from the Republic of Mordovia for the first time.

“…There is a small number of publications containing comprehensive checklists of various Diptera families. In the Republic of Mordovia, detailed species lists have been published only for Asilidae (Astakhov et al, 2019), Simuliidae (Budaeva & Ruchin, 2014), Bombyliidae (Chursina & Ruchin, 2018a), Syrphidae (Chursina & Ruchin, 2018b), Limoniidae, Pediciidae, Tipulidae (Dvořák et al, 2020;Pilipenko et al, 2020), Sciomyzidae (Dvořák et al, 2020;Vikhrev et al, 2020), Fanniidae and Mucsidae (Vikhrev et al, 2020), Ephydridae and Lonchaeidae (MacGowan et al, 2021). In addition to the Diptera faunistics, general ecological aspects of this insect order have been studied (e.g.…”

The nature conservation depends on the completeness of the knowledge about the biodiversity in the study area. Today, data on distribution and diversity of Diptera taxa remain fragmentary. This paper supplements data on the diversity of Diptera species in Europe, Russia, and the Republic of Mordovia. We have studied 1321 specimens of 241 species collected in 2013–2022. Among them, there are species, which are new for Russia (Neoempheria brevilineata, Desmometopa discipalpis) and for both Russia and Europe (Nepphyllomyza flavescensis, Phyllomyza auriculatusa, P. luteipalpis, P. orbita, P. piceus, P. striolatum). We have found for the first time 231 Diptera species for the fauna of the Republic of Mordovia; the families of Bolitophilidae, Keroplatidae, Scatopsidae, Platypezidae, Micropezidae, Opomyzidae, Asteiidae, and Milichiidae have been found for the first time in this region. Anthrax incomptus (Bombyliidae), being previously reported for the Republic of Mordovia, has been excluded now from the fauna of this region. Nine Diptera species have been previously indicated for the Republic of Mordovia without reliable confirmation by collected specimens. In this study, we have confirmed their presence in the Republic of Mordovia. Taking into account the results of the present paper, the Diptera fauna of the Republic of Mordovia includes currently 1187 species belonging to 71 families. Data on collecting methods have been presented for the found species. We provide a comparison of collecting methods and suggestions for an effective inventory of the regional Diptera fauna. We are of the view that the number of the used collecting methods affects positively the results of the fauna inventory.
