The distribution of American and European minks is analyzed to demonstrate the principle of choosing an optimal method for analyzing the environmental characteristics that determine the distribution of species and for mapping and estimating the quality of habitats and the probability of track detection. Outlooks and some problems of implementation of the proposed approach are discussed.

Grau Foreign Military Studies Oce ABSTRACT In the history of warfare, ground and naval forces frequently have to cooperate. There are usually problems putting these two forces together since their missions, equipment, training, communications and mutual unfamiliarity get in the way. These problems are common during transport of ground force equipment and personnel aboard naval vessels, exacer- bated during amphibious landings and assaults and very di- cult when operating together along major rivers. This article analyzes the Soviet history of defensive river otilla combat during the rst period of the Great Patriotic War (World War II against Germany).

    4 Marriage Behaviour in Pre-Industrial Karelian Rural Parishes

    91 4 Marriage behaviour in pre-industrial Karelian rural parishes Irina Chernyakova Marriage traditions in north-west Russia and Karelia in histori- ography It used to be thought that the peculiarities of the demographic behaviour of Russian peasants in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries had been thor- oughly analysed and adequately explained. This is especially the case for the phenomenon of the large family. Modern society has been experiencing an evident crisis of the family throughout the last century and, as a consequence, thousands of books and articles have been devoted to the traditional family, first in America and later in Europe. In 1972, the leader of the Cambridge Group for the History of Population and Social Structure, Peter Laslett, counted twelve thousand separate studies on this subject which had been published between 1900 and 1964.1 When discussing the viability of the current family model, scholars have also often paid attention to the patriarchal family (patriarhal’naya sem’ya), a widespread phenomenon purported to have been the preferred family form in pre-industrial Russia. They usually repeated one of the statements of the well-known nineteenth-century German traveller and political economist August von Haxthausen: ‘Nowhere is a large family a greater blessing than among the Russian peasants …’, where a ‘large family’ represented ‘the peasant’s greatest wealth’.2 This view was accepted as quite reasonable for Russian provinces in the nineteenth century, because ‘sons always meant additional shares of land for the head of the family’.3 At the same time, a large family and also the practice of different generations living together ‘under a common roof’ was seen as a burden in Western Europe.

    Karelia: a Place of Memories and Utopias

    Oral Tradition, 23/2 (2008): 235-254 Karelia: A Place of Memories and Utopias Outi Fingerroos Karelia is a vast inhabited area in northern Europe of historical significance to Finland,1 Russia, and Sweden. In Finnish historiography, Karelia has often been described as a borderland or battlefield lying between East and West, and as a focal point. These labels date back to medieval times, when the East and the West, that is, Novgorod and Sweden, struggled for commercial and political power over the tribes that lived in the geographical area of Karelia. At the same time, this area was also the arena for a struggle that resulted in the coexistence there of two distinct religious traditions of Eastern and Western Europe until the Second World War.2 Map 1: Since the fourteenth century, the border in Karelia has been re-drawn about ten times. © The Finnish Karelian League 1 Finland gained independence in 1917. 2 See Fingerroos 2007a; Heikkinen 1989:16; Hämynen 1994:17-19; and Sallinen-Gimpl 1994:16-17. 236 OUTI FINGERROOS Karelia is currently divided between the Russian Republic of Karelia, the Russian Leningrad Oblast, and two regions of Finland: South Karelia and North Karelia. There is also a Russian population living in many parts of the area. Some western parts of Karelia have never been on the Russian side of the border, whereas others have never been a part of Finland. Therefore, Karelia should be considered a heterogeneous area, parts of which are culturally connected to either Finland or Russia. This fact is also evident in the assigned names of Finnish and Russian Karelia.

Sampling was performed during the adult flies’ seasonal activity (March-October) in 2002, 2003 and 2004 using yellow pan traps, Malaise traps, emergence traps, and by sweeping. Altogether 5,697 specimens of 78 species of Dolichopodidae were collected, identified and analysed. The study examined community structure, species abundance, and diversity(Shannon-Weaver’sindex-H’;Sheldon’sequitabilityindex-E).Chrysotus cilipes,C. gramineus and Dolichopus ungulatus were the most abundant species in all three years. Species richness and diversity seem strongly affected by soil moisture.
