GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION OF THE HALICTID BEES SUBFAMILIES ROPHITINAE AND NOMIINAE (HYMENOPTERA, HALICTIDAE) IN THE PALAEARCTIC REGION
Distribution analysis of the halictid bees of the subfamilies Rophitinae and Nomiinae of the Palaearctic Region based on zoogeographical division proposed by Emelyanov (1974) is given. Species structure of the regional and subregional faunas is compared and the lists of Rophitinae and Nomiinae species for these divisions are given. Characteristic features of the regional faunas are discussed. Types of ranges for all Palaearctic species of Rophitinae and Nomiinae are designated. A new replacement name <i>Dufourea wuyanruae </i>nom. n. for <i>Halictoides </i>(<i>Halictoides</i>) <i>longicornis </i>Wu, 1982 [non <i>D. </i>(<i>Cephalictoides</i>) <i>longicornis </i>(Warncke, 1979)] is given.
