Females of T. annotatus are similar to Tarsonemus bilobatus Suski, 1965a in having a similar structure of the sejugal apodeme, sclerotized post-atrial sacs, and slender 3b setae. However it differs from the latter by (1) apodemes 2 ending medially in the distance of 1/ 2x their length to anteromedial apodeme (vs. apodemes 2 clearly reaching to anteromedial apodeme); (2) bifurcation of posteromedial apodeme expressed (vs. bifurcation of posteromedial apodeme absent); (3) Setae ps separated by distance of ca. 2x their lengths (vs. ps separated by distance apparently larger than 2x their lengths).

Authors of this species reported that specific features of <i>E. lentiginosus</i> are the absence of lines on prodorsal shield and 5­rayed empodium. However, females found in Poland have 4­rayed empodium and there are three entire lines in the centre of the shield forming by spots. What is more, the lines are more distinct and visible on the shield of nymph and larva. Specimens from Ukraine and Poland differs also in: the number of opisthosomal annuli, the appearance of microtubercles and the shape of the prodorsal shield. In females described by Mitrofanov <i>et al.</i> (1983) there are 88–95 annuli, microtubercles are ellipsoidal with conical top, the anterior margin of prodorsal shield is blunt. Females found in Poland have 54–71 annuli, bead­like microtubercles and short subrounded lobe reaching the half of the chelicerae. All these differences between the populations collected in Ukraine and Poland may result from intraspecific variability influenced by host, seasonal, geographical or others factors.</p>Published as part of <i>Skoracka, Anna, Macuk, Lucyna & Rakowski, Wojciech, 2004, New eriophyoid mites (Acari: Eriophyoidea) from sedges in Poland and supplement description of Eriophyes lentiginosus Mitrofanov, Sharonov et Sekerskaja, 1983, pp. 1-15 in Zootaxa 446</i> on pages 8-14, DOI: <a href="http://zenodo.org/record/157646">10.5281/zenodo.157646</a>

Authors of this species reported that specific features of <i>E. lentiginosus</i> are the absence of lines on prodorsal shield and 5­rayed empodium. However, females found in Poland have 4­rayed empodium and there are three entire lines in the centre of the shield forming by spots. What is more, the lines are more distinct and visible on the shield of nymph and larva. Specimens from Ukraine and Poland differs also in: the number of opisthosomal annuli, the appearance of microtubercles and the shape of the prodorsal shield. In females described by Mitrofanov <i>et al.</i> (1983) there are 88–95 annuli, microtubercles are ellipsoidal with conical top, the anterior margin of prodorsal shield is blunt. Females found in Poland have 54–71 annuli, bead­like microtubercles and short subrounded lobe reaching the half of the chelicerae. All these differences between the populations collected in Ukraine and Poland may result from intraspecific variability influenced by host, seasonal, geographical or others factors.</p>Published as part of <i>Skoracka, Anna, Macuk, Lucyna & Rakowski, Wojciech, 2004, New eriophyoid mites (Acari: Eriophyoidea) from sedges in Poland and supplement description of Eriophyes lentiginosus Mitrofanov, Sharonov et Sekerskaja, 1983, pp. 1-15 in Zootaxa 446</i> on pages 8-14, DOI: <a href="http://zenodo.org/record/157646">10.5281/zenodo.157646</a>

“Blind Zone’’ of L. Karsavin’s Archival Heritage
The recent publication of Lev Karsavin's essay of 1929 in the Bulletin of Ekaterinburg Theological Seminary calls for focusing on the appearance of this article at this very time. The essay summarizes religious-philosophical and philosophical-political views of L. Karsavin as an ideologist of Eurasianism and is addressed to his associates in the movement. Paradoxically, this historical source available for decades in Bakhmeteff Archive of the Russian and East European Culture of Columbia University Library has remained (with a single exception) unclaimed and unknown to domestic and foreign researchers of the Eurasianism, despite the fact that research papers on the topic are estimated in hundreds. Meanwhile, it reveals a dangerous trend — the lack of necessary attention to archival funds and to the search for new historical documents among authors writing on the topics of Russian religious philosophy and Eurasianism, and suggests that the author's demand for constant verification of published information by documentary sources has decreased. An example of this trend is the current situation with the legacy of Lev Karsavin and the archival materials concerning his life and work. The long stay of a significant part of such materials in the “blind” zone have led to the replication of unverified information, errors and outright fantasies about the researcher, thinker and poet, including casting a shadow on the spiritual portrait of this faithful son of the Orthodox Church, to which Lev Karsavin remained loyal until his last breath. The article shows the groundlessness of many stories and assessments roaming through publications, related to the life of L. Karsavin, including the unsubstantiated statements about his conversion to Catholicism. The author raises the problem of a diversity of the “blind” zone, when the religious nature of Karsavin's thought is ignored by researchers and conveniently adjusted through sociological and political science analysis and science-oriented reinterpretation.
As an appendix to this article, a letter from P. N. Malevsky-Malevich to L. P. Karsavin dated September 28 of 1929 with the author's comments on Karsavin's “Testament” to the Eurasians is published for the first time
