English: Eurasian frequency distributions of Y-chromosome haplogroups N. Haplogroups N is considered of Southern East Asia origin (Shi et al., 2013) , depicts the prevalence of this haplogroup mainly in Northern Eurasia. Thus, it is most numerous in European Russia, in particular in: Kursk (92.5%) (Mirabal et al., 2009) , Tver (78.9%), Mezen (53.7%), Krasnoborsk (39.6%), Pinega (39.5%) and Vologda (38.8%); in Siberia, among Yakuts (84.2%) (Derenko et al., 2007a; Sengupta et al., 2006) and Khanty (81.5%) (Mirabal et al., 2009) ; and among Swedish Saami (44.7%) (Karlsson et al., 2006) . Haplogroup N abruptly dissipates in lower latitudes, being virtually absent in southern Eurasia, with the exception of certain southwest Chinese ethnic groups such as Sichuan (13.2%) and Yunnan (10.7%) (Zhong et al., 2011) . Unlike the other considered haplogroups, Hg N has quite uneven distribution among European populations which is summarized in Table 1. It is apparent that Hg N is most prominent in East Slavic populations (Russians, Belarusians and Ukrainians) (Battaglia et al., 2009; Kushniarevich et al., 2013; Mirabal et al., 2009) and Swedish Saami (Karlsson et al., 2006) , but is almost lacking among other Europeans.
