Аннотация:The survey of the southern boundary of the distribution of lynx was conducted from 2014 to 2016 in twenty-eight central, south-eastern and southern parts of the region. In fifteen of them – Yaroslavl-?, Vladimir-50, Bryansk-23, Moscow-21, Ryazan-15, Kaluga-98, Tambov-3, Tula-1, Orel-2, Saratov-24, Penza-1, Ulyanovskaya-?, Samara-30, the Republic of Mordovia-?, Chuvashia-17 lynx recorded in the Red Books (figures: the number of species in 2013 in pcs.). In others, the lynx is mined, but by single specimens (numbers): Ivanovskaya-?, Smolenskaya3, Kostromskaya oblast-1. Thus, the southern border of the range of lynx from the Bryansk region goes to the northeast, the mine Orel and Tula region, then goes to the southern part of the Moscow region, crosses the Ryazan region from the north-west to the south-east, from there it goes north. Having walked Mordovia from the north and then went south to the Nizhny Novgorod region, it turns to the south-east, obliquely crosses the Ulyanovsk region in the southern part of it, then enters the Samara region. South of Samara, skirting the south Zhigulevsky Reserve and, entering the northern part of the Orenburg region. Along the southern border of the Buzuluk boron, goes to Bashkortostan. Almost the whole of the Nizhny Novgorod region, the republics of Mari El, Chuvash and Tatarstan remain within the range north of its southern border. To the south of this line of the border of the area there are local territories with individual individuals, but these are places of spontaneous approaches to the south beyond the border. Within the area in the Central Federal District there are local territories, sometimes significant (Moscow, Ivanovo, Ryazan, etc.), where the lynx appears irregularly and spontaneously. The border of the area and the approaches are marked on the cards. Note that this border is not finalized and will be corrected in the future.
