This paper presents records of 20 sawfly species from the family Tenthredinidae collected in Western Siberia. The following species are reported for the first time in the region: Thrinax contigua Konow, 1885, Empria testaceipes (Konow, 1896), Eutomostethus ephippium (Panzer, 1798), Anoplonyx apicalis (Brischke, 1883), Euura vicina (Serville, 1823), Nematus tataricus Zinovjev, 1978, Leucopelmonus nobilis (Saarinen, 1945), Tenthredo arcuatoides Muche, 1965, Aglaostigma nebulosum (André, 1881), Tenthredopsis coquebertii (Klug, 1817), Macrophya annulitibia Takeuchi, 1933, and Macrophya sanguinolenta (Gmelin, 1790). For another eight species — Ametastegia tenera (Fallén, 1808), Empria alector Benson, 1938, Taxonus agrorum (Fallen, 1808), Dineura virididorsata (Retzius, 1783), Euura leucosticta (Hartig, 1837), Pristiphora appendiculata (Hartig, 1837), Tenthredo solitaria Scopoli, 1763, and Pachyprotasis lineicoxis Malaise, 1931 — their known distribution within Western Siberia has been clarified. For all species, data on their biotopic associations in the study area and general distribution are provided.
