Abstract

Compiling all the previous and new records, the most recent list of drosophilid species from East Siberia (56 spp.) and Russian Far East (120 spp.) is provided along with descriptions of five new species, supplementary descriptions of two known species, some nomenclatural changes (five new synonymies, a new homonymy, and a change in status of a taxon from the specific to the subspecific rank), and a key to all the species. Drosophilid faunas of these two regions are compared with those of surrounding six regions in the Northern Hemisphere. Russian Far East constitutes the northeastern Asiatic realm in drosophilid biogeography together with northeastern China and Hokkaido, northern Japan. On the other hand, East Siberia belongs to the northern Palearctic realm extending to northern Europe. The border between these two biogeographic realms lies on the Stanovoy Mts.
