Date of creation:

Scale:

1:20 000 000.

Accuracy of the map:

It is created on materials of the map with scale 1:33 000 000 on the basis of information taken from literature.

Projection:

"Alber.s Equal Conica for the USSR", 9, 1001, 7, 100, 0, 44, 68, 0, 0.

Basic content:

Vector map, which consists of 2 thematic layers. Area of distribution and zone of damage are shown by polygons.

Accuracy of the classifier:

Within the area of distribution, the zone of low pest damage is only established according to the extent of its damage to agricultural plants. In the zone of low damage, harmfulness of A. dahli is about 2 points under the 5-point scale of harmfulness (Kopaneva et al., 1981).

Method of map production:

The species inhabits forest-steppe and steppe zones in the European part of the USSR northward to Chernihiv, Tula, Kazan, Kirov, Perm (Plavil'shchikov, 1968; Danilevskii & Miroshnikov, 1985), whole Caucasus (Samedov, 1963; Dumbadze, 1968; Danilevskii & Miroshnikov, 1985), the South of Siberia eastward to Baikal (Cherepanov, 1984), Middle Asia, Kazakhstan (Plavil'shchikov, 1968; Kostin, 1978; Cherepanov, 1984). A record of the species in Karelia (Yakovlev et al., 1986) is doubtful. The zone of low damage comprises the territory of sunflower growing in the southeastern European part of the USSR, including Saratov Region and adjacent territories (Megalov, 1933; Plavil'shchikov, 1968; Kopaneva et al., 1981).
