Announcements of new literature

How much does this volume cost?

The heterocera website.hu has not yet been updated with the release of the second book in the series. From memory, the cost of the 2nd volume is 126, - euro plus forwarding (107. - euro for subscribers).

Some remarks.
I haven't looked at this post in a long time.
1. You can earn money by publishing books about insects. d'Abrera, Witt, Tschikolovets etc are examples of this. If the author can get 1500 euros from the sale of author's copies , then he should have such an opportunity. Dear Elez is very right. When someone steals a shirt from the tray because they're cold, that's one thing. Selling pirated copies is different. A matter of principle. I personally invested at least 30 thousand euros in books on Altai and Mongolia. Expeditions, buying literature, visiting museums, buying materials. And if I return 10% of this amount by selling copyrighted copies - I think this is not surprising.
2. I also conduct additional advertising for the book by Yuri Chistyakov! I don't have the book, but I had contact with the author. The taxon he mentioned as new was described by me. I contacted Chityakov by phone and received such a friendly and warm response that I was very touched. I believe that this well-known entomologist should have made a very pleasant book. I am very glad to see such literature published in the Urals - Gorbunov, Olshvang. I am glad to have such an experience in Primorye. These are great trends!

Of course, all this does not apply to non-standard articles, for the availability of which I advocate.

And on the" scales " of the DV, you can lay out a couple of tables?(if any)
Well, the price, of course.

so laid out already...
The price is very democratic - 400 rubles, including shipment across Russia of 500 rubles. details maxim@ibss.dvo.ru

I expected that it would still be like a determinant atlas with tables....

Can I see what it is again?
Otherwise, the file is already gone.

Dear colleagues, our article on seasonal development of anthocorids (Heteroptera, Anthocoridae) has recently been published, and both Russian and English versions of the pdf are now available. If any of you are interested in this, I will be happy to send it (please write the file in which language you want to receive it).

Good luck,

and what does Chikolovets have and where to read it?

One book is "Altai, Sayan, Tuva", the second is "Mongolia". There he is not alone, but with co-authors. I don't know where to read it. I think they will appear on sale, on the Internet.

Determinant of coleoptera of the Middle Volga region (part III. Polyphaga-Phytophaga). Ulyanovsk, 2007, 254 p. (in Russian) (Series "Nature
of the Ulyanovsk region", issue 14).
The book develops and presents definitive tables that can be used to identify 1,323 coleopteran species belonging to 11 families. The territory considered in the determinant covers the Chuvash Republic, the Republic of Tatarstan, the Ulyanovsk and Samara regions of Russia. This is the first time such work has been performed in this region. Based on our own research and literature sources, we have compiled a complete list of Phytophages recorded here over the past 100 years. The guide includes tables for all species of the group discovered so far in the Middle Volga region, and represents the third part of the planned three-volume edition (the first one was published in 2002).
The keys are mainly based on external morphology features, which makes it easier to work with the book without compromising its scientific value. For most species, forage plants are indicated (for some - for the first time). The book is illustrated with more than 700 drawings (190 of them are author's), grouped into 141 tables.
The publication is intended for teachers of schools and Universities, students of biological specialties, specialists and Amateur entomologists, researchers, Museum curators, heads of circles stations of young naturalists, workers of agriculture and forestry. Fig. 745, cards 1, Bibl. 226.
Reviewers: D. b.N., academician G. S. Medvedev, D. SC.n. V. A. Krivokhatsky (ZIN, St. Petersburg).
The cost is 400 rubles plus the price of shipping (cash on delivery).
Orders should be sent to Stanislav Malyavin by e-mail: gammarus@bk.ru Ulyanovsk ped. university, Department of Zoology

Below is the table of contents. I have a pdf of the following chapters: Introduction, 1, 2, 3, 7, 8, 10, 12, 15, 19.

The content of the book, as they say now, is very satisfying!

If you don't mind, you really need one of the chapters listed in the access section: 3, 7, 12, 15, 19.
I think everyone would be interested in general chapters 14. 16. 17. 18. 24. As an African scholar, I'm 5.
Is it actually possible to get the whole book?

Sincerely, Viktor K.

Maybe not worth it ( emphasis on the first syllable), Eh ???

I received the atlas Beetles of Israel today. It's a lovely book. Many thanks to Yuri for such a book. I want such a book on beetles and butterflies to be published in every region of the Russian Federation, at least!
Yuri, I am very grateful to you and I firmly shake your hand for such a wonderful project!

Why for each region? 0_o doesn't make sense.. But if by family, then yes.. Although I, personally, would not make such huge pictures, I managed with real sizes for beetles from 1 cm and increased to 1 cm for everyone else ))
And so, the book is very good

Although I, personally, would not make such huge pictures, I managed with real sizes for beetles from 1 cm and increased to 1 cm for everyone else ))

So what kind of 1x1 cm pictures would they be? On them, even with high-quality printing, you can't really see anything.
Images in ent. atlases should be enlarged.
And it is necessary to increase it not to 1 cm or any certain fixed size, but proportionally.

very large images are useless. This won't make the beetles any more distinguishable. The main thing is to display what they look like and make it clear. Clearly, that is proportional to

very large images are useless. This won't make the beetles any more distinguishable.

Why do you think that the fact that the features of the dotted line and other small details of the structure become distinguishable, the beetles will not become more distinguishable? Yes, there are text keys for the definition. But if we want to show the appearance of the beetle, it is advisable (if possible) to show it qualitatively.

It seems strange to inform the Russian public about the same new products in Russia, but it seems that there is nothing else to do.

The second volume of the book on scoops of the North Caucasus has already been published.
