Abstract

Based on the studies conducted in 2012-2020 on the key plots of mixed fir tree woodlands that grow within the Ulan-Burgasy Mountain range, the authors identified a special nemoral group of lepidopterans, that typically inhabit ocean coastline mixed and broad-leaved forests. Another peculiarity of this area is the presence of species atypical for the major part of the Transbaikal Region: Spialia orbifer Hbn., Leucodonta bicoloria Den. et Schiff., Furcula bifida Brahm (Sub-boreal group); Laothoe populi L. (Central Palearctic group); and Feralia sauberi Graes. (Palearchearctic group). The comparison of Lepidoptera faunas on the key plots and other forest and forest-steppe habitats in the Transbaikal Region revealed their high similarity (more than 80%) to the Ulan-Burgasy humid forests that grow near Baikal and mixed fir tree taiga forests of the Khamar-Daban Ridge.
