Видовое богатство и регионы высокого разнообразия наземных позвоночных России

Проведена ревизия видового богатства позвоночных четырех классов (млекопитающих, птиц, пресмыкающихся и земноводных) на территории России. За территориальную единицу принят биом регионального уровня. Для всех классов характерен рост видового богатства к югу с различиями, специфическими для каждого класса, которые отражены на созданных картах. Зоны повышенного разнообразия частично перекрываются, однако биомы с максимальными значениями не совпадают. У млекопитающих это степные биомы Причерноморско-Предкавказский (113 видов) и Заволжско-Кулундинский (114 видов), у птиц — оробиомы Тувино-Южнозабайкальский (262 вида) и Алтае-Саянский (275 видов), у пресмыкающихся – Дагестанский оробиом (31 вид) и пустынно-степной биом Прикаспия (37 видов), у земноводных – Днепровско-Приволжский биом, включающий Калининградскую область (13 видов).
