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 damage is established according to the extent of the pest damage to rape. Threshold of harmfulness of the P. chrysocephalus on the rape is 3 adults per running meter (Polyakov et al., 1983). Damage is sporadic and insignificant (Gussakovskii, 1949; Shapiro, 1963).

Procedure of map drawing:

Data from the open publications are used for allocation of area and zones of pest damage. In the former USSR, the area includes Baltic States (Putele, 1970), most of the European part of Russia southward of Leningrad Region (Lobanov, 2000; Romantsov, 2007). The area also covers Belarus (Lopatin & Nesterova, 2005), Ukraine (Shapiro, 1963; Brovdii, 1974), the Caucasus (Samedov, 1963; Mirzoeva, 2001; Bienkowski, 2004), the South of Western Siberia, Altai (Dubeshko & Medvedev, 1989; Bienkowski, 2004), Kazakhstan (Dubeshko & Medvedev, 1989; Bienkowski, 2004), and Middle Asia (Dubeshko & Medvedev, 1989). The zone of low damage comprises the area of cruciferous cultures growing in the Northern Caucasus and Black Sea strip of Krasnodar Territory (Palii, 1961; Shapiro, 1963).
