A part of the COI mitochondrial barcoding gene was sequenced from seven species of different taxonomical groups: Ambystoma mexicanum (Amphibia, Ambystomatidae), Darevskia lindholmi, Lacerta agilis exigua (Reptilia, Lacertidae), Erinaceus roumanicus (Mammalia, Erinaceidae), Macrobiotus sp. 1 and 2 (Eutardigrada, Macrobiotidae) and Cameraria ohridella (Insecta, Gracillariidae). The sequences were compared with available sequences from databases and positioned on phylogenetic trees when the taxa had not yet been sequenced. The presence of Mexican axolotls in herpetoculture in Ukraine was confirmed. The partial COI genes of the Crimean rock lizard and an eastern sub-species of the sand lizard were sequenced. We demonstrated the presence of two tardigrade mitochondrial lineages of the Macrobiotus hufelandi group in the same sample from the Zeya Natural Reserve in the Far East: one was nearly identical to the Italian M. macrocalix, and the other one is similar to M. persimilis and M. vladimiri. We also confirmed the presence of the invasive haplotype “A” of the horse chestnut leaf miner in Ukraine, in line with the hypothesized route of invasion from Central Europe.

The materials for the composite portraits were images from electronic antique collections of museums, image banks and catalogs. To obtain visual images of the studied groups, the composite portrait method was used in a digital program. Results and discussion. Unlike the roman sculptural portrait of the 1st century BC, which has a specific purpose and real prototypes, prototypes of votive terracotta heads of the 3rd – 1st centuries BC can be both real people and typified model-forms. The main differences between the composite roman portraits from the etruscan-italic votives relate to the orbital part of the face, the nose width and the upper lip hight. The composite images of the roman votives of Latium are similar to the composite roman sculptural portrait in the nose width. The morphological differences between the votive portrait and the Roman republican sculptural portrait can be a reflection of really different anthropological types, which does not except the presence of the cumulative (Greeks, Etruscans, Latins) canon of morphological form in votive portraits. Conclusion. The early Roman portrait, represented by two distinctive forms of portraiture, reveals different anthropological types. The extent to which a possible morphological canon of votive heads gifts is influenced by Greek prototypes can be determined by comparison with a composite Greek portrait.
Dermatoglyphics is an integral part of the biological anthropology related to the studies of the population polymorphism and geographical variability of Homo sapiens. V.V. Bunak presented the dermatoglyphic methods in the chapter XI of "Anthropometry" too compact, the text needs some technical explanations, which was the purpose of this work. Materials and methods. We have combined the comments to the XI chapter of "Anthropometry" with a summary of the main concepts and terms of the accepted descriptive dermatoglyphic methodology. Results and discussion. The presentation of the dermatoglyphic methods in the XI chapter of "Anthropometry" contains 1) general remarks on technical equipment, 2) technique for obtaining prints, 3) topography of the relief and some dermatoglyphic traits. The main accent in the presentation of the method is on obtaining correct prints of the ridge skin for their further transcription and use in morphological analysis. The descriptive method of dermatoglyphics of the hand is partially present; the main attention is devoted to the explanation of general concepts (epidermal lines, radiant, triradius, type of pattern), the designations of features in the text and in the figures are minimal. There is practically no description of the dermatoglyphics of the soles. There are some terminological discrepancies in the description of some traits of the palms. Conclusion. The technique for obtaining prints of the skin of the palms and soles in "Anthropometry" by V.V. Bunak is still relevant today, however, the descriptive part is presented in fragments. Numerous data on dermatoglyphics had not yet been systematized in sufficient detail by the time "Anthropometry" was published, and an abbreviated form of the methodology was justified. The notes we have cited to the text of chapter XI of "Anthropometry" are specifying.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
