Description
Summary:The biotope distribution of the butterflies of the Nizhny Novgorod Provnce and its regulations are discussed. Seven groups of biotopes are divided and its faunas are descrbed. The stenotopic species and the different types of eurytopic species are described, their ratio is determined. The species with the most adaptive potential are selected and their role as the most possible candidates to occupy atypical biotopes on the studied territory is discussed. Рассматривается биотопическое распределение булавоусых чешуекрылых Нижегородской области и его закономерности. Выделено 7 групп биотопов, описаны их фауны. Определены стенотопные виды и виды разной степени эвритопности, определено их соотношение. Определены виды с наибольшим адаптационным потенциалом как наиболее вероятные кандидаты на заселение нетипичных биотопов на данной территории.
