The event was attended by eight interns (graduate students and staff) from universities, research institutes and fisheries institutions of Borok, St. Petersburg, Syktyvkar, Tyumen, Yekaterinburg and Novosibirsk.
Global warming increases the aggressiveness of soil fungal pathogens, disrupts the structure of local microbiota, and reduces the suppressive capacity of agroecosystems.
Despite the fact that grooming has been studied for many decades, the extent to which its structure depends on the animal's circumstances has remained unclear.
The results are important for predicting ecosystem resilience, preserving biodiversity, and developing ecologically sound approaches to managing natural and agricultural areas.
The expedition conducted visual counts of seals along the entire shoreline of Lake Baikal and assessed the distribution of the animals in areas with varying levels of anthropogenic pressure.
Over the course of 3 weeks, a team of biologists deployed 50 cameras using a specially developed methodology, detailed in the CAMMON Photo Monitoring Program, published by the Central Forest Reserve.
De Winton noted its unusual morphological features when describing the species: "The skull is unusually square and short, and unlike any other gerbil known to me."
This publication is recommended for geographers, biologists, ecologists, and a wide range of readers interested in Russia's natural environment, its biodiversity, and conservation prospects.
Unfortunately many countries are still strongly affected by the Corona virus; there are no regular flights and the possibility to gather together many people. We consider it would be unreasonable to hold the Workshop this year. Instead, we want to hold it next year, most likely between the 20th and 30th of May 2021.
Please save the date!
We hope that you and your families are as well as you can be during these challenging times.
The application of documents for post-graduate studies in A.N.Severtsov Institute of Ecology and Evolution RAS in 2020 will take place from 1st to 25th of September. The entrance exams will be held from 1 to 23 October. The results of postgraduate enrollment will be declared from November 1, 2020.

Dear colleagues,
We are pleased to invite you to register on the new website of the Theriological Society at the RAS.
We hope that the website of the Theriological Society will help unite colleagues, establish new connections between specialists and identify opportunities for cooperation at a distance.
Establishing a connection between specialists
We are creating on the website a database of specialist theriologists of Russia. By registering and filling out your profile, you will help your colleagues find out about you, establish contacts for collaboration or request a publication. After registration, you will be able to search for the necessary specialist by region, object or problem. This section is new for our site. Please fill out your profile! You can always return to your personal account to register for the conference and make changes to the data.
