INTRODUCTION
Beetles of the genus Donacia Fabricius, 1775 are among the most common inhabitants of freshwater bodies: rivers, lakes, ponds, ditches, and are also found in swamps and wet meadows. In the Palaearctic fauna the genus Donacia is represented by 65 species (Bienkowski, 2015).
The systematic of this genus is studied relatively well, but the local faunas on the territory of Siberia are examined rather fragmentary. So, from Eastern Siberia we know only 16 species and subspecies of Donacia: D. aquatica (Linnaeus, 1758); D. bactriana Weise, 1887; D. bicolora Zschach, 1788; D. clavipes glabrata Solsky, 1872; D. crassipes Fabricius, 1775; D. dentata Hoppe, 1795; D. fennica Paykull, 1800; D. impressa Paykull, 1799; D. semicuprea Panzer, 1796; D. simplex Fabricius, 1775; D. sparganiigracilipes Jacoby, 1885; D. plendens Jakobson, 1894; D. thalassina intermedia Jakobson, 1899; D. thalassina thalassina Germar, 1811; D. versicolorea (Brahm, 1790); D. vulgaris Zschach, 1788 (Dubeshko & Medvedev, 1974; 1989; Guselnikov & Medvedev, 1984; Medvedev& Dubeshko, 1992; Lopatin et al., 2004; Silfverberg, 2010).
However, the majority of data on Siberian species provide only regional details, and specific localities are not indicated. Krasnoyarskii krai occupies almost one third of Eastern Siberia, and there was no special examination of leaf beetles in this region. So, any faunistic discovery is of great interest for the further cataloging of biodiversity and determination of habitats. As a result of our latest studies we have found new faunistic data on the leaf beetles of Donacia in Krasnoyarskii Krai.
The collected material is deposited in the private collections: EAC — Evgenij Akulov Collection, Krasnoyarsk, Russia; EBC - E. Borisova Collection, Krasnoyarsk, Russia.

NEW RECORDS OF DONACIA FABRICIUS, 1775
Distribution. Europe, Caucasus, Middle Asia, Asian Russia (W Siberia, E Siberia (new record)). Notes. Reported from Eastern Siberia for the first time. Previously, Western Siberia was considered the eastern border of its habitat. We also recoded feeding of beetles on Carex (Cyperaceae).
D. dentata Hoppe, 1795
Material examined. Krasnoyarskii Krai, Minusinsk, 08.viii.2001, leg. E. Akulov (EAC). Distribution. Europe, Caucasus, Kazakhstan, Ural, Asian Russia (W Siberia, E Siberia). Notes. Previously, in Eastern Siberia it was recorded only in the foothills of the eastern part of the West Sayan (Guselnikov, Medvedev, 1984).
D. marginata Hoppe, 1795
Material examined. Krasnoyarskii Krai, Krasnoyarsk, Akademgorodok, bank Enisej river., 06.vi.2000, leg. E. Akulov (EAC); Krasnoyarskii Krai, Suhobuzimskij distr., Bartat lake, 22.vi.2013, leg. E. Akulov (EAC).
Distribution. Europe, Caucasus, Middle Asia, Ural, Asian Russia (southern parts of W Siberia, E Siberia (New record)), N Africa.
Notes. Reported from Eastern Siberia for the first time. Previously, Western Siberia was considered the eastern border of its habitat. We also recoded feeding of beetles on Carex (Cyperaceae).
