Piece of amber 13 × 6 × 2 mm, cut from larger lump, polished flat on one side, more convex on the other.Diagnostic charactersThe nymph of Megalophthallidion gen. nov. is similar in general body shape to the only known fossil protopsyllidioidean nymph described from Lower Cretaceous Lebanese amber—Talaya batraba Drohojowska et Szwedo, 2013. The nymph of Talaya batraba is 2nd or 3rd instar, therefore some features are difficult to compare with this last instar nymph of Megalophthallidion gen. nov. The morphological states observed in those two specimens are: head covered with strongly expanded disc and expanded disc of pronotum, however shapes and ratios of these structures differ; compound eyes on ventral side of head, shifted laterad (ommatidia on cones in T. batraba, while ventroposterior expansions are present in Megalophthallidion gen. nov.); compound eyes visible from above as short, stout cones in fissure between posterior margin of disc (hypertrophied vertex) and anterior margin of pronotum (compound eyes (?) are visible on dorsal side of Permian Aleuronympha bibulla Riek, 1974); in Megalophthallidion gen. nov. rostrum reached mesocoxa, while in Talaya batraba distinctly exceeds length of the body; abdomen with 9 segments; tergites of abdominal segments 5th–9th expanded posterolaterad in form of fan-like expansion; 9th abdominal segment short, placed ventral; anal tube short, cylindrical, epiproct (?) globular.DescriptionNymph, 5th instar (Figs. 3A–D, 4A–F).

Fore wing pad 0.6 mm long, with small, straight humeral lobe, forming a right angle, not protruding anteriorly. Mesothoracic tergites slightly larger than metathoracic segments (respectively c. 0.14 mm and c. 0.12 mm long in midline, 0.26 mm and 0.27 mm in lateral lines); mesothoracic tergum with distinct median elevation (low double crest with ecdysial line in between), slightly wider than long in midline, anterior margin arcuate, lateral margins straight, subparallel, posterior margin concave. Metathoracic wing pad apex slightly exceeding mesothoracic wing pad. Metathoracic tergum wider than long, slightly shorter than mesothoracic tergum, with distinct elevation in the middle.Legs relatively long (Figs. 3C,D, 4C–E).

Comparative characteristics of rations for feeding cattle from different regions of the Republic of Kazakhstan and the impact of animal feeding types on the faecal microbiotaDue to the huge differences in the natural and climatic conditions of Kazakhstan, animals from different regions of Kazakhstan were enrolled for this study. The difference in soil and climatic conditions of different zones has a significant impact on the type of feeding (Table 1) and the composition of diets, which has a certain effect on the microbiota of intestinal contents and methanogenic archaea in particular.Table 1 Animal diets in different regions of Kazakhstan.Full size tableIn the course of the research work, regions and specific agricultural formations were identified in the context of these regions.In North Kazakhstan, the fodder base is represented by such fodders as alfalfa hay, herb hay, alfalfa haylage, wheat straw, fodder wheat and sunflower cake. The feed is mainly of 2 quality classes. The live weight of cattle ranged from 375 to 480 kg. Feeding type: hay-concentrate and haylage-hay-concentrate.In the Western region, the animals were on the pasture, represented by the green mass of feather grass, hair, sage and tansy. Beef cattle are represented by the following breeds: Kazakh white-headed, Aberdeen-Angus and Hereford. Average live weight is 350–550 kg.In the Southeast region, the fodder base consists of wheat hay, sainfoin + alfalfa hay, mountain hay, herb haylage, corn silage and crushed corn. The feed is mainly of 2 and 3 classes. Hay-concentrate type of feeding is used, as well as pastures. Livestock of Angus, Kazakh white-headed breeds and animals of the local population are kept. Live weight of young animals is in the range of 360–380 kg.The diets of the Southern Region include natural grass hay, alfalfa hay, wheat straw, alfalfa haylage and concentrates. Hay-concentrate type of livestock feeding is widespread in the region. The average live weight of bulls for fattening of the Kazakh white-headed and Angus breeds—360–420 kg with a daily increase in live weight of 870–920 g.The composition of the fecal microbiota depending on the type of feeding is presented in Table 2.Table 2 The content of methanogenic archaea in feces.Full size tableFrom the data of Table 2 it follows that the largest amount of Bacteria was found in the faeces of animals with silage-concentrated feeding (98.59 ± 13.0%), and the smallest—with pasture-concentrated (93.24 ± 3.73%) and haylage—concentrated (93.8 ± 12.41%) types of feeding. The differences amounted to 5.35 and 4.79 absolute percent, respectively. However, the differences were not significant at P  More
