abstract

An overview of the history and current state of theriological research across the entire region from the Dnipro to the Donets, including research centres in Kyiv, Chernihiv, Sumy, Poltava, and Kharkiv oblasts. The prehistory (up to 1940) is reviewed, along with the characteristics of research at that time in universities, biological stations, plant protection stations, and game management laboratories. The modern period, considered from the post-war era (1945–1950), covers research at regional universities, biological stations, plant protection stations, and nature reserves. The north-eastern region is one of the richest in terms of regional theriofauna composition, owing to the coexistence of forest and steppe habitats and the diversity of landscapes. Considerable attention has been paid to this region by faunists and applied zoologists, particularly in the fields of plant protection, game management, epidemiology, and nature conservation. The region has repeatedly served as a centre for theriological forums, including several theriological schools.
