Background
In 2016, saproxylic Diptera associated with aspen (Populustremula L.) logs were studied in the Kivach Nature Reserve, Russian Karelia, using trunk emergence traps.
New information
Eleven rare species of Diptera (families Limoniidae, Scatopsidae, Axymyiidae, Mycetophilidae, Sciaridae, Platypezidae, Syrphidae and Clusiidae) with poorly kn...

Biofuels are an important energy source, currently providing about 10% of the world energy demand, including 2% of global electricity generation and the same share of total liquid fuel consumption. Wood fuel in Russia is one of the most affordable and most important type of renewable energy resources. In this paper we study the possible changes in...

... Species of tree can be very important for diversity of insects as well. Aspen, being of low economic value, is characterized by great diversity of saproxylic insects and is associated with rare species (Polevoi et al. 2018). Study of saproxylic Diptera in Scotland (Rotheray et al. 2001) showed that aspen and ash had the highest diversity of Diptera (7 tree species were studied). ...
... In our study, there were only 8 traps on aspen that caught 31 species of the Bibionomorpha and Tipulomorpha, including 5 of the same species as in the Finnish study (in Finland, four species were caught on the aspen, while in our study -from ash). In Russian Karelia, 16 aspen logs were investigated with the same type of traps and 51 nematoceran species were collected, of which 9 were present in our study too (Polevoi et al. 2018). ...
... Zygoneura bidens and Z. sciarina were reared on aspen dead wood. Z. bidens was very common in aspen logs in Russian Karelia (Polevoi et al. 2018). The larvae of Z. sciarina has been reared from xylophilic and young beech logs (Irmler 1996). ...
The aim of this study was to investigate the biodiversity of nematoceran flies associated with dead wood in a forest ecosystem. Although wood is a primary habitat for a vast amount of Diptera species, no effort has previously been made to study saproxylic flies in Lithuania. During this research, emergence traps were used on aspen (Populus tremula) and ash (Fraxinus excelsior) trees in Dūkštų Ąžuolynas forest and Būda Botanical-Zoological Reserve during the period 2014–2019. In total, 672 individuals of the Bibionomorpha and Tipulomorpha collected from fallen tree trunks were identified to species. Seventy-four species represented nine families, with the Sciaridae, Anisopodidae and Mycetophilidae being most abundant. The Sciaridae family has barely studied in Lithuania and its diversity is still poorly known. During the research 23 nematoceran species, of which 19 belonging to the Sciaridae family, are first reported from Lithuania. Key words: nematoceran, saproxylic species, emergence traps.
... Members of the genus Atypophthalmus are terrestrial crane flies, with larvae that develop in fungi and under bark of decaying wood (Alexander 2002;Bloxham 2014;Halme et al. 2012;Krivosheina 2010Krivosheina , 2011Krivosheina & Krivosheina 2011;Polevoi et al. 2018;Stubbs 2003). Larvae of only two species, A. (A.) inustus (Meigen, 1818) and A. (M.) machidai (Alexander 1921), have been described (Krivosheina 2010(Krivosheina , 2011Krivosheina & Krivosheina 2011). ...
Two new species of crane flies belonging to the genus Atypophthalmus Brunetti, 1911, A. (Atypophthalmus) kleini Podenas, sp. nov. and A. (Microlimonia) jeju Podenas & Podeniene, sp. nov. collected in South Korea in 2017 and 2019 are described and illustrated. Larvae and female pupa for A. (Microlimonia) jeju sp. nov. are described. The pupa for the subgenus A. (Microlimonia) is described for the first time. An updated list and key for adults of all Korean Atypophthalmus are presented.
The aim of this study is to compile the species list of Bibionomorpha and Tipulomorpha flies associated with dead wood in Lithuania. Saproxylic nematocerans were studied from 2014 to 2020 in four protected areas and in five different tree species (Populus tremula, Quercus robur, Tilia cordata, Fraxinus excelsior and Alnus glutinosa) of the second stage of decay by using emergence traps. In total, 113 species were identified with Mycetophilidae, Sciaridae and Limoniidae being the most species-rich families. The compiled list of species emerging from dead wood in Lithuania is presented. Fourteen species were reared from dead wood for the first time.
Limoniidae is one of the most species-rich Dipteran families, with 661 reported species in Europe. Despite the fact that the European limoniid crane fly fauna has been studied ever since Carolus Linnaeus, it is still poorly known.
In this study, we summarise the taxonomic and faunistic studies of European Limoniidae, which described new species and reported first country records, between 2010 and 2020. We also report occurrence data of 244 Limoniidae species which represent the first country records or conformational records from various European countries, as we report ten species from Albania, one from Austria, thirty-seven from Belarus, five from Belgium, two from Bulgaria, two from Estonia, six from Finland, seven from France, fourteen from Greece, sixteen from Hungary, two from Iceland, six from Italy, ten from Latvia, one from Malta, nine from Montenegro, two from The Netherlands, ten from North Macedonia, forty-two from Norway, one from Poland, five from Portugal, twenty from Romania, thirty-eight from Serbia, six from Slovenia, five from Spain and seven species from Sweden for the first time. From the European territory of Russia, we report twenty-eight species from Central European Russia, seventy-two from East European Russia, fifteen from North European Russia, one from Northwest European Russia and seven from North Caucasus for the first time. Confirmatory records and corrigenda are also included.
