The QUINSIB database is a part of growing network of computerised insect data. It was created on the foundation of more than 30 years of research of the Quaternary insects (mostly beetles) in northwest Siberia. The main goal of the database is to gather the information about numerous studied insect samples: site, age, species list, number of fossils; with short notes about ecology and distribution of each species and their pictures. This should be a good working tool for the international research which collects data from many sources in one place including little-known ones published in Russian. QUINSIB includes over 13,400 records, more than 600 fossil insect assemblages, and modern distribution and ecology of more than 400 insect taxa (mostly beetles, Coleoptera).
