A new species, Sabacon zateevi sp. nov. (♂ ♀ from the Altai Mountains, Russia), is described. Liropilio stukanovi Gritsenko, 1979 is recorded from Russia for the first time, and appearance and diagnostic features of its male are described. The appearance of a living specimen of the female of Homolophus nordenskioeldi (C.L. Koch, 1879) is also provided. For all the studied species, biotope preferences and distribution are discussed. Additional information on morphology and distribution of Sabacon sergeidedicatum Martens, 1989 is given. Key words: Altai Mountains, Liropilio, Sabacon zateevi sp. nov., State Nature Reserve Introduction The study of Siberian harvestmen fauna began in the 19th century (Koch 1879), but information remains insufficient and uneven. In recent decades, only a few papers have been published on the harvestmen of Southern Siberia (e.g., Martens 1989; Tchemeris et al. 1999; Tsurusaki et al. 2000; Chemeris & Logunov 2001, Trilikauskas 2013, 2016, 2017; Tchemeris 2015). To date, focused research on the harvestmen fauna of specially protected natural regions of Russia has never been studied. The papers listed above contain scattered information on harvestmen from the Altai Mountains, and only a single record of Acanthomegabunus sibiricus Tsurusaki, Tchemeris & Logunov, 2000 near the northern border of the Katunsky Biosphere Reserve (Tchemeris 2015). The Katunsky Biosphere Reserve is located at the headwaters of the Katun’ River, in the Ust-Koksa District of the Altai Republic. Its territory includes the northern slopes of the Katunsky and Listvyaga Mountain Ranges (Map 1). The aims of the present paper are: (1) to provide a list of and to map all the harvestmen species recorded from the Katunsky Biosphere Reserve, (2) to illustrate Liropilio stukanovi Gritsenko, 1979, the first specimen found since its original description, (3) to provide photographs of living specimens of Homolophus nordenskioeldi (C.L. Koch, 1879) and L. stukanovi, (4) to illustrate and describe a new species of Sabacon from the Altai Republic of Russia, and (5) to provide additional information on the morphology and distribution of Sabacon sergeidedicatum Martens, 1989. Accepted by J. Shultz: 25 May 2021; published: 18 Jun. 2021 117 MAP 1. Records of Opiliones from the Katunsky Biosphere Reserve and neighbouring territories: 1—Katunsky Biosphere Reserve, head of Ozernaya River, shore of Taimenye Lake, near the ranger station; 2—Same locality, vicinities of Taimenye Lake, middle reaches of the Kharyuzovka River; 3—Same locality, NW shore of Taimenye Lake; 4—SE shore of Taimenye Lake; 5—Katunsky Biosphere Reserve, bank of Taimenye Lake near Soloukha River mouth; 6—Upper reaches of Katun’ River, Ozernaya River mouth; 7—Katunsky Biosphere Reserve, upper reaches of Katun’ River, left bank of Zaichikha River near its mouth; 8—same locality, 4 km NE of the ranger station. Material and methods A total of 437 specimens belonging to two families have been examined; all of them were collected by the first author (LT) by means of pitfall traps, sweep nets, and hand collecting in 2019–2020 except for those where authors are mentioned. The specimens were preserved and studied in 70% ethanol, and their colouration refers to that of preserved specimens. All drawings were made with the aid of a reticular eyepiece attached to an MBS–10 stereomicroscope. Ovipositors were detached and stained with Amido Black 10B. Digital images of preserved specimens were taken with a Canon EOS 550D attached to a Zeiss Stemi 2000–C stereomicroscope. Stacked images were combined using Helicon Focus 6.3 software. SEM micrographs were taken with SEM Hitachi TM–1000 at ISEA: material was mounted using adhesive and dried for a few hours. Photos of living specimens were taken with Canon EOS 1100D and Canon EOS 6D cameras. After photos were taken and drawings had been made, harvestmen body parts were placed into microvials and are stored with the corresponding specimens. The drawings were edited in Adobe Photoshop and CorelDraw. Map 2 was produced using the online mapping software SimpleMappr (Shorthouse 2010). The specimens studied in the present paper have been deposited in the following collections: ISEA—Institute of Systematics and Ecology of Animals, Novosibirsk, Russia (Curator G.N. Azarkina); MMUE—The Manchester Museum, The University of Manchester, UK (Curator D.V. Logunov); PCLT—Personal collection of L.A. Trilikauskas. 118 · Zootaxa 4990 (1) © 2021 Magnolia Press TRILIKAUSKAS & AZARKINA The terminology follows Suzuki (1983) and Martens (1978, 2015). All measurements are in millimetres (mm). Results Family Phalangiidae Latreille, 1802 Only four species of harvestmen, except for the five species listed below, Homolophus asiaticus Gritsenko, 1979, Opilio parietinus (De Geer, 1778), Homolophus pallens (Kulczyński, 1901), and Scleropilio insolens (Simon, 1895), are known to date from Russian part of Altai-Sayan Mountain region (Tchemeris et al. 1999; 2015; Tsurusaki et al. 2000a). Acanthomegabunus sibiricus Tsurusaki, Tchemeris & Logunov, 2000 Acanthomegabunus sibiricus Tsurusaki et al. 2000b: 74, figs 1– 4. Acanthomegabunus sibiricus Tchemeris 2015: 568, figs 1, 5, 14–15, 17. Comments. Acanthomegabunus sibiricus is the only species previously known from the Katunsky Biosphere Reserve. The species was recorded from the vicinity of Srednee Multinskoe Lake (erroneously named Srednee Kuktinskoe Lake) (Tchemeris 2015). The lake is actually located outside the reserve, close to its northern border where the reserve’s ranger station is situated, although this record requires confirmation because it is based on a single female. A closely related species, A. altaicus Tchemeris, 2015, may also occur there—its type locality lies close to the Katunsky Reserve (East Kazakhstan Area, Katon-Karagaiskii Districts). Habitat. Mountain moss-stony tundra, moss-pebble riverbanks, Abies forest, Anemone meadows, stony debris, dark coniferous forests, and aspen-fir forests (Tsurusaki et al. 2000b; Trilikauskas 2016, 2017). Distribution. The mountains of South Siberia, Russia: the southern part of Krasnoyarsk Territory, Altai Territory, and Altai Republic, Kemerovo Area, Khakassia, and Tuva (Tchemeris 2015). Homolophus nordenskioeldi (C.L. Koch, 1879) Figure 1 Farzalieva & Esyunin 2000: 193, figs 67–73. Tchemeris et al. 1999: 189, figs 1–7. Snegovaya & Cokendolpher 2021: 338, figs 28–29.

Comments. The species was described from the Ivanovsky Mountain Range in north-eastern Kazakhstan (Gritsenko 1979) and has not been found since; this is the first record for the species from Russia. The genus Liropilio is morphologically similar to Zacheus C.L. Koch but differs by the presence of a tubercle with denticles on the basal segment of the pedipalps (Figs 3–6) and an alate part on the penis, apically (Figs 11–15). Palpal femur, trochanter, and tibia of this species slightly thickened latero-apically, densely covered with short, stout setae. Palpal femur bordered dorso-apically, with two rows of teeth ventro-retrolaterally, tarsus covered with setae (Figs 3–4, 7–10). FIGURES 1–4.

  • Mutual Intelligibility Among the Turkic Languages
    Mutual Intelligibility Among the Turkic Languages By Robert Lindsay Abstract: The Turkic family of languages with all important related dialects was analyzed on the basis of mutual intelligibility: (1) To determine the extent to which various Turkic lects can understand each other. (2) To ascertain whether various Turkic lects are better characterized as full languages in the own in need of ISO codes from SIL or rather as dialects of another language. (3) To analyze the history of various Turkic lects in an attempt to write a proper history of the important lects. (4) To attempt to categorize the Turkic languages in terms of subfamilies, sub-sub families, etc. The results were: (1) Rough intelligibility figures for various Turkic lects, related lects and Turkish itself were determined. Surprisingly, it was not difficult to arrive at these rough estimates. (2) The Turkic family was expanded from Ethnologue's 41 languages to 53 languages. Splitting: a number of new languages were created from existing dialects, as these dialects were better characterized as full languages than as dialects of another tongue. Lumping: a few existing languages were eliminated and re-analyzed as dialects of another or newly created language. (3) Full and detailed histories for many Turkic lects were written up in a coherent, easy to understand way, a task sorely needed in Turkic as histories of Turkic lects are often confused, inaccurate, controversial, and incomplete. (4) A new attempt was made at categorizing the Turkic family that rejects and rewrites some of the better-known characterizations. Acknowledgments: This paper could not be written without the generous support and kind, wise heart of Professor Suer Eker of Bashkent University in Ankara, who is in charge of the book project where this article is published.

  • Reconstruction of Past Plant Associations in the Altai Mountains Based on the Results of the Study of Fossil Flora
    Ukrainian Journal of Ecology Ukrainian Journal of Ecology, 2018, 8(4), 417-423 ORIGINAL ARTICLE Reconstruction of past plant associations in the Altai mountains based on the results of the study of fossil flora G.Ya. Baryshnikov, O.N. Baryshnikova, A.I. Shmakov Altai State University, Lenina pr. 61, Barnaul, 656049, Russia, E-mails: E-mail: [email protected] Received: 19.10.2018. Accepted: 23.11.2018 The conditions of burial of vegetation in past geological epochs are considered and their species diversity in the Altai mountains is established. Authors assert that during the Quaternary period, the low-mountainous areas of the Altai Mountains with their specific physiographic feature were the area in which plants migrated from the highlands to the foothills during the climate cooling, or the promotion of thermophilic forms to the mountains during warming. At the same time, the number of relics from the beginning of the Quaternary period to the present has been reduced by species diversity. Keywords: absolute age of sediments; Altai; paleocarpology; Quaternary sediments; relict plants; spore-pollen analysis; transition zone The dynamics of erosion processes in the past and the accumulation of rocks freed from destruction and denudation on the territory of the Altai mountains were distributed extremely unevenly. In many ways, this depended on the natural conditions that were capable of changing natural landscapes in a short period of time at different stages in the formation of this mountainous country. Such events include break of the preglacial-pond lakes, the formation of landslides and topplings, the manifestation of earthquakes and other extreme phenomena occurred in the mountains constantly.

To determine the ploidy levels, we used methods of direct chromosome counting and flow cytometry in some cases. Among them, chromosome complements were first examined in Russia for Eruca vesicaria subsp. sativa (2n = 22). Psammophiliella muralis (2n = 34), Medicago sativa subsp. varia (2n ≈ 32; 2C = 4.8 pg) and Solanum nigrum (2n = 48) were first studied from Siberia. Malva verticillata (2n = 42), Oxalis dillenii (2n = 24), Lolium perenne (2n = 14) and Setaria faberi (2n = 36) were first studied from the Republic of Altai.

E-mail: [email protected] Keywords: Altai Republic, Amaranthaceae, Asteraceae, Caryophyllaceae, chromosome numbers, invasive species, Lamiaceae, Onagraceae, Poaceae. Summary. Chromosome numbers (2n) in 16 invasive plant species from the families Amaranthaceae, Asteraceae, Caryophyllaceae, Lamiaceae, Onagraceae and Poaceae are reported on the material from the Altai Republic for the first time. Among them, chromosome complements were first examined in Russia for Chaiturus marrubiastrum (L.) Ehrh. ex Reichenb. (2n = 24) and Oenothera villosa Thunb. (2n = 14). Five species: Amaranthus lividus L. (2n = 34), Elisanthe noctiflora (L.) Rupr. (2n = 24), Galeopsis speciosa Mill. (2n = 16), Oenothera biennis L. (2n = 14) and Bromus japonicus Thunb. (2n = 14), were studied first from Siberia. The most part of the species studied are diploids. The general distribution and the history of floristic findings of these species in the Altai Republic are given. The data on chromosome numbers published earlier on the material from Russia are cited. Числа хромосом инвазионных видов во флоре Республики Алтай: сообщение 2 М. Н. Ломоносова, Е. Ю. Зыкова, Т. В.
