Description
Among all insects, the order Mecoptera is the least studied in European Russia. Among this order, the small family Panorpidae stands out, the species of which are found mainly in forest ecosystems. In order to fill this gap, during 2008, 2009, 2011, 2015, and 2017-2023 we collected data for the Panorpa distribution dataset in European Russia. In our research, the biology of 6 species of Panorpa (P. alpina, P. cognata, P. communis, P. germanica, P. hybrida, P. vulgaris) was studied. To obtain the most information, various collection methods were used (handheld sweep-net, light traps, pitfall traps, pan traps, Malaise traps, and window traps) and the entire insect activity season. Data have been obtained that can be used to understand the timing of species activity in nature, to understand biotopic preference, and to study other aspects of Panorpa biology.
