Abstract. A new material of Dolichopodidae has been recently collected in Bastak Nature Reserve, and includes 8 species (all species are found for the first time in the Reserve and in the Jewish Autonomous Region). In total, 20 species are reported in this region, which apparently makes up 20-25% of actual Dolichopodidae regional fauna. 11 species found in the Jewish Region are only reported in the East Palaearctic Region. Some of them are rare, known earlier only in Primorye (Dolichopus longisetus, Gymnopternus nemorum, Medetera stylata and Rhaphium nuortevai). This paper also provides a distribution pattern for each collected species.

Keywords: Dolichopodidae, Russian Far East, Jewish Autonomous Region, Bastak Nature Reserve, new records.

Аннотация. Материал по семейству Dolichopodidae впервые собран в Государственном природном заповеднике «Бастак»; новые указания включают 8 видов (все найдены впервые в Еврейской автономной области). Всего в области отмечено 20 видов, что, по-видимому, составляет 20-25% региональной фауны Dolichopodidae. Из них 11 видов распространены только в Восточной Палеарктике. Некоторые виды являются редкими, известными ранее лишь в Приморье (Dolichopus longisetus, Gymnopternus nemorum, Medetera stylata и Rhaphium nuortevai). В статье приведено также общее распространение для каждого отловленного вида.

Introduction

Jewish Autonomous Region, or Oblast (JAO) is located in the Russian Far East, bordering Khabarovskii Krai and Amurskaya Oblast in Russia and Heilongjiang province in China, with the poorly studied fauna of long-legged flies, regarding especially protected areas of the Region. The Bastak Nature Reserve's main territory covers the south-eastern ridges of Bureya Massif and the northern outskirts of the Middle-Amur Lowland. It is located in the Ussuri Broadleaf and Mixed Forests ecoregion and borders with the Amur Meadow Steppe in the South (see Ecoregions 2017). The Reserve is crossed by a network of small rivers with a few small lakes (Averin et al. 2012).

The first data on 12 dolichopodid species found on the JAO territory in 1991 was published by author of this paper (Grichanov 2006). This material was collected from environs of Amurzet village on Amur River shore in the south-western part of the Region. None dolichopodid fly was known from other JAO territories. There were later some nomenclat-ural changes for the published names. Hercos-tomus arcticus Yang, 1996 was placed in synonymy with Hercostomus flaveolus Negrobov et Chalaya, 1987 (Negrobov et al. 2016), which was transferred to the genus Poecilobothrus Mik, 1878 by Grichanov (2020). Hercostomus ussurianus Stackelberg, 1933 was transferred to the genus Gymnopternus Loew, 1857 by the same author (Grichanov 2020).

The material for this study was collected by the collaborator of the Reserve A. A. Averin by the use of standard Malaise trap method, fixed in 76% ethanol, then dried and mounted on pins; it will be deposited at the Zoological Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Saint Petersburg. Females are not sorted as they could hardly be distinguished from females of closely related species inhabiting the Far East.

New records for 8 species are listed below, collected about 15 km north of the city of Birobidzhan and labelled as follows: Jewish Region, Bastak Nature Reserve, 48.9°N, 133.0°E. These data are not repeated in the

text. The information on the global distribution for each species follows Grichanov (2017). The type localities are provided and the country lists are arranged alphabetically. The words "Region" (Oblast) and "Territory" (Krai) are omitted from the list of Russian regions. Remarks are provided where deemed necessary.

Conclusion

As a result of this study, 8 Dolichopodidae species are recorded in Bastak Nature Reserve and JAO for the first time. In total, 20 species are reported in this Region, which apparently makes up 20-25% of actual Dolichopodidae regional fauna as compared with the much better studied Primorye and Khabarovskii Territory of Russia. All species newly collected in Bastak Nature Reserve are new for the Jewish Autonomous Region. Most species (11) found in the JAO are reported only in the East Palaearctic Region. Some of them are rare, known at present in JAO and Primorye (Dolichopus longisetus, Gymnopternus nemo-rum, Medetera stylata and Rhaphium nuortevai). Such species as Chrysotus degener and Poecilobothrus flaveolus occur in both East Palaearctic and Orient. Seven species are Trans-Palaearctic, either boreal or polyzonal.
