Introduction

The fauna of Russia and neighboring countries includes 45 families of Diptera: Brachycera, with many species having transregional and polyregional ranges. The Diptera of the Karadag Nature Reserve and adjacent territories have been studied relatively poorly. To date, more than 300 species of the order Diptera, belonging to 32 families and 193 genera, are known from the territory of the reserve. The most studied are dipterans from the families Conopidae (Zimina, 1993), Syrphidae (Zimina, 1993; Popov, 2009) and Tachinidae (Richter, 1996).

There are published data on individual species from other families of Brachycera occurring in the reserve: Stratiomyidae (Krivosheina, 2004); Tabanidae (Olsufiev and Melnikova, 1962); Dolichopodidae (Grichanov et al., 2015), Muscidae (Vikhrev and Erofeeva, 2018); Chloropidae (Narchuk and Przhiboro, 2017), Ephydridae (Krivosheina, 2014), etc. In addition, among the brachyceran dipterans of the reserve there are rare species listed in the Red Book of the Republic of Crimea (Krasnaya kniga..., 2015): Merodon nigritarsis Rondani, 1845; Pogonosoma maroccanum (Fabricius, 1794); Neorhynchocephalus tauscheri (Fischer, 1812) (Zimina, 1993; Kostenko, 2016).

The purpose of this work was to identify the species composition and study the seasonal dynamics of the brachyceran flies in the Karadag Nature Reserve and adjacent territories.

Material and methods

The study area includes steppe and forest-steppe biotopes of two specially protected natural areas (SPNA) of South-Eastern Crimea: Karadag Nature Reserve (area 28.7 km2, maximum height - Svya-taya Mountain, 577 m above sea level), located between the villages of Shchebetovka, Kurortnoye and Koktebel, and the "Tepe-Oba Mountain Range" conservation park (area 1200 hectares, maximum height 302 m a.s.l.), located 15 km east of the reserve. The material was collected during the 2019-2020 growing seasons. Using a set of methods: entomological sweeping, Merike ('yellow pan") and Malaise traps. Insects were removed from Merike traps every 3 days, and from the Malaise trap every 8 days. The collected material was fixed with ethyl alcohol and part of it was mounted on entomological pins.

Identifications were made under a Micromed MS-2 Zoom binocular microscope using keys, including diagnostic tables for individual genera included in publications and monographs of some authors (Michelsen, 1980; Olsufiev, 1977; Opredelitel' nasekomykh yevropeyskoy chasti SSSR, 1969, 1970; Shatalkin, 2000; Tschorsnig and Herting, 1994, etc.). To clarify the identification for some species, temporary preparations of male genitalia were made according to generally accepted methods.

Traps were installed at six localtions: N 44°56'23.79" E 35°14'11.11"; N 44°54'47.57" E 35°12'02.38"; N 44°54'46.70" E 35°11'59.42"; N 45°01'18.72" E 35°24'11.49"; N 45°00'29.02" E 35°22'56.63"; N 44°54'57.00" E 35°11'09.96". K.I. Shorenko collected the material and performed preliminary taxonomic sorting; O.N. Berezhnova identified material to species level. The relative abundance (p) of species was calculated using the formula:

P = n/Nx100%,

where n - number of individuals of an identified species, N - total number of individuals of all species collected. If the label data for collecting a species included the dates of two months, the number of individuals in the calculations (Fig.1) was taken into account twice - for each of the months indicated in the primary data.

The material is housed in the collection of the Department of Zoology and Parasitology, Faculty of Medical Biology, Voronezh State University.

Results and discussion

As a result of the ecological and faunal study, 501 individuals of brachyceran flies belonging to 66 species, 48 genera, and 21 families were collected.

The greatest abundance of Diptera was recorded in June (Fig. 1): 52 species of 18 families. The lowest abundance was reported in April and October - 2 species each from 2 families. The most numerous species in the collections were: Eristalinus sepulchralis (21%), Chloromyia speciosa (14%) and Helina sexmaculata (9%). The species Tachina fera is bivoltine. The abundance of syrphid flies in June is associated with the massive flowering of food plants in the study area and the characteristics of the life cycles of the species.

Conclusions

As a result of this study, 66 species of brachyceran dipterans belonging to 48 genera and 21 families were identified. The greatest species diversity is characteristic of the family of hoverflies (Syrphidae) (19 species; 183 specimens), in which the species Eristalinus sepulchralis was numerous in the collections. One species was identified in each of the families Rhagionidae, Hybotidae and Ulidiidae. 34 species of dipterans were listed for the first time for the fauna of the Karadag Reserve, and 28 species for the regional reserve "Tepe-Oba Mountain Range". The species Ceroxys urticae, Eudorylas fusculus, E. ruralis, Graphomya maculata, Lomatia polyzona, Oedalea tibialis, Suillia affinis, Symphoromyia immaculata, Thereva aurata, and T. plebeja are recorded for the first time for Crimea. One species listed in the Red Book of the Republic of Crimea was noted, Merodon nigritarsis.
