Family
Molannidae
The Holarctic and Oriental genus
Molanna
includes 2 fossil, 22 extant species and 2 subspecies (Morse 2001). Three
Molanna
species were known from the Russian Far East:
M. albicans
(Zetterstedt 1840)
,
M. submarginalis
McLachlan, 1872
and
M. moesta
Banks, 1906 (
Arefina 1997
)
. A 4th species,
M. byssa
n. sp.
, consistent with morphological characters of the genus, was collected from the
Byssa
River at Fevralsk Town. This river is also a left tributary of the Selemdja River. The specimens were collected by net while sweeping riparian vegetation during the day.
