Abstract

Six species of bothrobiontic flies of 3 families (Phoridae, Helomyzidae, and Sphaeroceridae) were recorded from nests of the European pine vole Microtus (Terricola) subterraneus Sel.-Long. in Belgorod Province (“Forest on the Vorskla River” Nature Reserve). Four species are recorded in the fauna of Russia for the first time.
