PROJECT CAUCASUS 1.44

Road connection between Azerbaijan and Kazakhstan through RussiaMost of the road passes through a real projection with height drops, intersections, partially bad roads, sections along the coast of the Caspian Sea, post -Soviet villages and, finally, cities!

PROJECT CAUCASUS 1.44

Which means: This world background map does not reflect the real world correctly in every section but has been adjusted to fit to the created ingame world of several maps, which used different world projections.

macroarea identifies the macro-area (typically subcontinent size) where the language is spoken. The following partition of the world is used in this project: Australia; East and Southeast Asia; Europe; Mesoamerica; North Africa; North America; North and Central Asia; Papunesia; South America; South Asia; Sub-Saharan Africa; West Asia and the Caucasus.

The new apartment buildings will be located in Dreilini village between Lubanas and Bikernieku roundabouts. During the first round of the project, 58 apartments will be built, and by the end of the project in 2023, there will be 700 new apartments.

According to Bonava Latvija development projects manager Martins Vonda, the project targets those who wish to live in a green neighborhood and, at the same time, just a quick drive from the Riga center.

A new species, Epeorus (Caucasiron) hyrcanicussp. nov., is described based on larval morphology and molecular data (COI) containing sequences from all Caucasian Caucasiron species described to date. The species is distributed in the Hyrcanian forest of southeastern Azerbaijan and northwestern Iran. Based on our wide-range sampling, the new species is likely endemic to this area. The most pronounced larval morphological diagnostic characters are the coloration pattern of abdominal sterna (a pair of oblique stripes and stripe-like medio-lateral maculae) and terga (triangular medial maculae), poorly developed projection of the costal margin of gill plates III, presence of hair-like setae on the surface of abdominal terga, and relatively wide shape of gill plates VII (in natural position from ventral view). The diagnostic characters are compared to related species, and primary information to habitat is provided.

Analyses were performed using the SPLITS package for R ( -forge.rproject.org/projects/splits). An ultrametric COI gene tree was reconstructed in BEAST 2 (Bouckaert et al. 2014) with the settings as described in Hrivniak et al. (2020b).

Thorax. Pronotum anteriorly narrowed, lateral edges nearly straight. Metanotum with slight postero-medial projection. Dorsal surface covered with fine, hair-like setae (as on abdominal terga and head); sparse longer hair-like setae along pro-, meso- and metanotal suture.
