The insect fauna of Mongolia includes about 12,000 species belonging to 24 orders. The only order, Orthoptera, is richer in species in Mongolia than in the Far East of Russia. All other units show greater diversity in the Russian Far East than in Mongolia. There are a significant number of very interesting endemics. Tizanuras of the family Machilidae are relic insects, represented by five species in Mongolia. As examples of widespread Central Asian insects, a number of species of darkling beetles and weevils can be indicated, most of which are endemic to Mongolia or Central Asia.

Natural centers of tick-borne encephalitis and tick-borne rickettsiosis diseases are distinguished not only by stability and in- creasing level of epidemiological manifestation but also by ability to enlargement of areas. It is found that a contribution of some regions of Russia to the sick rate of tick-borne encephalitis and tick-borne rickettsiosis is changing in time. For tick-borne encephalitis the contribution of East Siberia increases and becomes equal to one of Ural area. For tick-borne rickettsiosis the general contribution of four regions (East Siberia, West Siberia, Ural and Far East) amount to 92% of diseases in country. The greater part of tick-borne rickettsiosis diseases (62,1%) is the contribution of East Siberia because of activi- ty of disease centers of Altai area.

The publication analyzes the reasons and particular qualities of the migration crisis on the Russian-Chinese border in 1917–1922. This crisis was caused by the revolution and the Civil War in Russia. A huge mass of former subjects of the Russian Empire, who disagreed with the new system, were forced to leave their homeland and in the early 1920s formed one of the largest emigrant diasporas in the world in China. The bulk of the White Army’s remnants the civilian population crossed the Russian-Chinese border in the Far East, forming Russian refugee camps in the Chinese border area. A significant number of Russians crossed the border in western China, in the region of Xinjiang province, where several refugee camps also emerged. The composition of Russian refugees has raised serious concerns in both the central and border authorities of China: the bulk of the refugees were well-armed experienced military men who had gone through not only the Russian Civil War, but also the First World War and refused to surrender their weapons, the Cossacks and their chieftains, peasants and merchants from the border regions who did not want to obey anyone, who needed help. A small part of the Russians who left for China were nobles and intellectuals, who settled mainly in Harbin and Shanghai. The peculiarity of the migration situation in the Far East, as well as on the Russian-Chinese border in Central Asia, was not only in the huge number of Russians who arrived in China, but also in the fact that a severe internal political crisis had been developing in China itself for several years. The Chinese authorities were unable to control the situation in the country, and Russian refugees aggravated the situation. In addition, the Chinese authorities did not want to aggravate relations with Soviet Russia, which repeatedly threatened to send troops to eliminate the remnants of the White Army, which had settled in the Chinese border area. This could seriously aggravate the political situation in the Far East and Central Asia. Therefore, the Chinese authorities actively took measures to regulate the flow of Russian refugees and prevent a possible crisis: they blocked the border with Russia in some areas, expelled refugees back, did not issue permits to cross the border, etc.

Отделение географии, на котором осуществляется подготовка специалистов-географов в Дальневосточном государственном университете, прошло сложный путь своего становления и развития. Первые географические курсы разрабатывались в начале XX в. в Восточном институте на кафедре этнографии и географии, на кафедре политики, законодательства и экономического строя. В 1920-е гг. дисциплины географического цикла в Государственном Дальневосточном университете входили в учебные планы сельскохозяйственного, технического и восточного факультетов. Значительный вклад в развитие географического образования внес профессор А.А. Половинкин, автор широко известных учебников по физической географии для средней школы. С первых дней создания кафедры физической географии профессором В.И. Лымаревым в 1964 г. профессорско-преподавательский состав, наряду с учебным процессом, включился в комплексные географические исследования природы и особенностей социально-экономического развития регионов Дальнего Востока. Экспедиционные работы проводились на Чукотке, Камчатке, Сахалине, Курильских и Шантарских островах, в Приморье. Формировалась лабораторно-аналитическая база, появились первые результаты геолого-геоморфологического дешифрирования аэроснимков для составления морфодинамических карт, выполнялись работы по ландшафтному картографированию районов активного вулканизма, разрабатывались новые авторские курсы по физической и экономической географии Дальнего Востока и сопредельных регионов. На кафедре уделялось значительное внимание развитию научно-исследовательской работы студентов. Участие их в ежегодных экспедициях в отдаленные и труднодоступные районы, проводимых под руководством преподавателей и сотрудников, длительные учебные и производственные практики, различные виды лекционных, семинарских и внеаудиторных занятий способствовали формированию профессиональных качеств выпускников-географов. Особенностью подготовки студентов была связь учебного процесса с проводимыми кафедрой научными исследованиями на фоне широкой кооперации с академическими институтами. The Department of Geography, which trains specialists in geography at the Far Eastern State University, has passed a difficult path of its formation and development. The first geographical courses were developed at the beginning of the 20th century at the Oriental Institute at the Department of Ethnography and Geography, and at the Department of Politics, Legislation and Economic Order. In the 1920s, the disciplines of the geographical cycle at the Far Eastern State University were included in the curricula of the agricultural, technical and oriental faculties. Professor A.A. Polovinkin is the author of the widely known in the country textbooks on physical geography for secondary schools. From the first days of the creation of the Department of Physical Geography by Professor V.I. Lymarev in 1964, the teaching staff, along with the educational process, joined the complex geographical studies of the nature and features of the socio-economic development of the Far East regions. Expeditionary works were carried out in Chukotka, Kamchatka, on Sakhalin, Kuril and Shantar islands, in Primorye. The laboratory and analytical base was formed, the first results of geological and geomorphological interpretation of aerial photographs for the compilation of morphodynamic maps appeared. The works on landscape mapping of the areas of the active volcanism appeared. New author’s courses on physical and economic geography of the Far East and adjacent regions were developed. The considerable attention of the department was paid to the development of students’ research works. Their participation in annual expeditions to the remote and hard-to-reach areas, conducted under the guidance of teachers and staff, long-term educational and industrial practices, various types of lectures, seminars and extracurricular activities contributed to the formation of the professional qualities of graduated geographers. The connection of the educational process with the scientific research carried out by the department in the background of wide cooperation with academic institutions was the main peculiarity of students’ training.
