This issue of the 75th volume of the Proceedings of the Russian Entomological Society is dedicated to celebrating the 75th birthday of the well-known Russian entomologist, Professor and Doctor of Sciences, Vladimir Ivanovich Tobias. It contains original papers contributed by his colleagues, friends and students.

This book also includes an autobiographic essay by Dr. M. Fischer, a colleague and friend of Dr. V.I. Tobias, who also celebrates his 75th birthday this year.
