Arthropods

Mazaris Longhorned Wasp / Mazaris Yellow Wasp / Kuznetzov’s Longicorn Wasp

Kuznetzov’s Longicorn Wasp Status: Category III (LR-nt). A naturally rare Central Asian species from a small (4-5 species) relict genus. In Central Asia, the genus and family are among the most ancient groups of hymenopterans, known since the second half of the Cretaceous period (about 100 million years ago), having evolved as oligotrophic pollinators, precursors to bees. The second recorded representative of the genus Masaris in Kyrgyzstan (40 years ago) is Masaris carli Schulthess, 1922,

Asiatic Polochrum Wasp / Polochrum Sary Aarysy / Polochrum Azimuth Wasp

Asiatic Polochrum Wasp Status: Category II (VUB2ab(iii); C2b; D2). A rare vulnerable endemic species of Central Asia, a relic in the modern fauna of the family with a decreasing distribution; the group has scientific significance in aspects of zoogeography and conservation of genetic resources. The second known species of the genus (P. repandum Spinola, 1805) is distributed in Southern Europe and the Caucasus and is already protected in several countries [74]. The largest

Arthropods

Kuznetsov's Megalodont / Kuznetsov's Lamellicorn Saw-fly

Kuznetzov’s Lamellicorn Saw-fly Status: II category (VU B1ab(iii)+2ab(ii,iii,iv); D2; E). A rare narrow-local endemic of the Western Tien Shan, with a population close to critical levels. One of six Central Asian representatives of a relict family (2-3 species in Kyrgyzstan [12]). It has the narrowest range among Central Asian species of sawflies [7], significant for aspects of zoogeography and conservation of genetic diversity.

Arch's Hornet / Archachyl Muyuuz Kuyruk / Juniper Horntail
Arthropods

Arch's Hornet / Archachyl Muyuuz Kuyruk / Juniper Horntail

Juniper Horntail Status: Category III (LR-nt). A naturally rare species with a tendency to habitat reduction. It is significant as an object for zoogeographical research and in the aspect of preserving the regional gene pool, one of four representatives of the family in the fauna of the republic [11]. The downgrade of U. sah to the rank of subspecies U. augur (Klug, 1803) by some specialists appears biologically unfounded.

Alexanor, subspecies Voldemar Status: Category II (VU B1ab(iii)+2ab(iii)c(iii,iv); C2b). A local subspecies of a southwestern Palaearctic species with a mosaic range and declining population [23]; in Kyrgyzstan, populations are fragmented, small, and vulnerable, at the edge of the species range. The species is included in the Red Books of the USSR [26] and Uzbekistan (category VU B1ab+2ab(iii)c(iii,iv); D) [23]. An impressive and aesthetically valuable [13]

Apollo Butterfly, subspecies Merzbacher / Merzbacher's (Kaldyrkany) Apollo Butterfly / Merzbacher’s Apollo Butterfly

Apollo Butterfly, Merzbacher subspecies Status: Category 3 (LR-nt). A local subspecies whose populations are potentially vulnerable but not endangered. The species P. apollo is included in the IUCN RLTS (VU A2cde category as assessed in 1996) [76], in CITES Appendix II, and several regional Red Books [26]. The largest [46] of the 47 representatives [90] of the Holarctic genus; an impressive and nature-adorned species. An object of amateur collecting [1].

Apollo Loxias, Tashkoro subspecies Status: Category II (VUB1ac(v)+2ab(iii)c(v); D2). An isolated subspecies of an extremely locally and sporadically distributed species, which, due to monophagy, singularity, locality, and small population sizes, is vulnerable even in the absence of a decline in numbers. One of three [90] rare representatives of the peculiar subgenus Kailasius (two species in Kyrgyzstan). It represents significant scientific interest in aspects of zoogeography,
