In article the analysis of works of the Russian researchers devoted to a research of subethnic and
genealogical groups of Kazakhs during a specified period of time is given. The author pays attention to ethnographic
features of separate groups of the Kazakh population, in particular, of so-called "shala-Kazakh". Features and factors
of formation of the specified groups as a part of Kazakhs are shown. Processes of entry into the structure of the
Kazakh people of a part of Karakalpaks, Uzbeks, Kalmyks and other foreign-language groups of the population are
considered. The paper also draws attention to the peculiarities of the study by Russian authors of sub-ethnic and
genealogical groups of Kazakhs. In particular, we are talking about the appearance of the first special works on
individual genealogical groups, for example, tolengut.The author also dwells on the assessment of the contribution of
individual Russian scholars to the study of the indicated topic.
