Places and times of butterfly flying

 
And it is in such places that mourning birds, polychromatic birds, peacock's eye, urticaria should be found?

No, in such places there can only be a peacock's eye and a garden polychrome.
I'll try to put a dot in your search, or an ellipsis
Mourners and Urticaria will not live here permanently, as they need constant snow cover in winter. if it is not present, then these species can only be stray, can create temporary populations for several years and then disappear again for decades.
Polychrome plants live in our country according to food plants, but they have very large fluctuations in their number over the years (life waves) from super rare to mass and then disappear for decades (black and red) and from mass to single (garden). peacock's eye wherever there is nettle, to say that the mass can not be but is constantly present. Admiral and Burdock are very strong migrants, they migrate in large numbers every year, and all our locals are constantly replenished with migrants from the south. therefore, these species have almost no subspecies.

Who else can I tell you about?

Mourners and Urticaria will not live here permanently, as they need constant snow cover in winter.

Where does this data come from?

That is, I agree with the thesis that we have only temporary populations (practice in the Kharkiv region suggests this), but is it really a matter of snow cover (and why)?

For example, in the North. In America, N. antiopa also lives in its southern parts (where there are even more problems with snow cover) and feels good there (I saw it myself). But in Europe, for some reason, it is different.

Thank you, Djon. I wonder why they need snow cover, because its absence gives them a signal that they can fly out, come out of hibernation? Can you read about this somewhere?

I used to think about the Admiral and burdock (after reading Akimushkin's book " Animal Life. Insects. Spiders. Pets"), that they are already flying away from us. And it turns out that they also overwinter?

I am interested in Araschnia levana. Wikipedia says that in the Kherson region at least there was a population at the mouth of the Dnieper. What conditions are needed for it?

And another question about Apatura metis. Do they live in places where many willows form a closed canopy, or can they live on willows that are separated from each other at some distance? I just happen to be in places where the willows are sparse, and I haven't seen this butterfly there, so I think that maybe it needs a lot of willows at once?..

I can't say for sure where the information comes from, or from discussions with colleagues or from the literature. But I do not know other reasons, if for mourning, we can say that we do not have natural birch plantations, but at the same time there are large tracts of Dnieper birch, along the sands of the Dnieper, then for mourning, only snow cover, nettles everywhere sea in the Crimea, hives are common on yayly, where snow is 200 cm, but on the South Coast and in the steppe only flights.

Probably, it is not the snow cover itself that is important, but the winter plus temperatures, when butterflies come out of diapause, and die with repeated cooling.

The mottled moth goes only along the floodplain of the Dnieper River, but it is not often found, it also applies to the mestizo: in the plavnevy forests from mid-May to September, probably two generations. further 5-7 km from the Dnieper did not see and then on the rivers that flow into the Dnieper. It is confined as they say to azonal biotopes

Can I ask you a stupid question? what is so terrible and in what ice age did it happen that the mestizo range became so disjunctive (from western Europe through the Caucasus to Primorye)? as in "kind" I believe in it, but....kormovukha is, places are, but mestizo is not what do you dream, apatura mestizo?

Wave Storm, the place is beautiful I have seen polychromatic, urticaria, peacock eyes in similar places.
And today we already had buckets of egg yolks flying around

A dubious idea about the snow cover, well, about warming, we have a lot of butterflies that overwinter imagos, and for some reason do not die out )) Uglokrylnitsy, peacock eyes all sorts, it's okay, let them climb out when it's already quite warm, although it's not a fact, I sometimes see the first nymphalids in February. But, for example, the same lemongrass plants at Waveshtorm, he has a lot of them there, and by the way, where they live, the warming is more interesting than our local ones, but here I saw only one lemongrass.
Well, about the hawthorns, too, why aren't they here? But there is a waveshorm there? Hawthorns generally winter as pupae

Hierophis, we have also seen yellowheads today, alfacariensis a few and 1 crocea.
Limonnits valom-well, I would say that the one valom is Pontius aedus. At least they'll be everywhere soon. A lemongrass is much smaller, and they fly only in the swamps and gullies.

Hawthorns do not overwinter as a pupa, but as a caterpillar. Today, by the way, I saw some caterpillars. In early May, they spread out to pupate. And already in the middle of May I saw butterflies.

And exactly, I remembered, they still, caterpillars, like wintering kubla weave.
And the Pontians have been flying almost since February)
Hawthorn need here urgently! Hawthorn without hawthorns vsearvno that the sea-without water

What about the plants? We already have the Bush's bird beds blooming! The pigeons haven't been seen yet..

What do you mean, show me a photo?

Here:

Well, the pictures are cool, you can't say anything, but I meant- "here they would be" in the physical sense, toset, so that we also have them, the pictures are oknechno good, but I want them to live with us

After all, I remember that even in school time, even in the second half of the 90s, it seemed to be full of hawthorns, and then once - and they were gone.. Same thing with the unpaired silkworm. It is still there, but it is so rare that there is no mourning there.. And before the masonry was on each wall, and krasotelov odorous under each stone three pieces sat))

God save you from this infection A real scourge for all living things
Eats everything, not just hawthorn (((And other butterflies on its background, sometimes unnoticed at all...

vasiliy-feoktistov, and we somehow do not observe it either in gardens or in dachas. It is in the beams.

I have not seen any unpaired silkworm clutches in N. Kakhovka and Balki. But where I met them, and many of them, was in the forest along the Tsyurupinsky Bridge. There is an artificial poplar forest on the sands, there are also aspens and willows.

Well, if I remember correctly, we also saw these masonry structures in the Oleshkovsky psekas, and I often saw them there. But a lot is when the trees are covered with them just so that it seems that they, the trees, are wrapped in glass wool

And the hawthorn butterfly is very beautiful, so it can not be enough And it does not fly all year round, in any case, hawthorns are needed)

So it hasn't reached us yet everywhere....

Dear entomologists, Someone, reveal the secret of the endromis habitat in the Yarosladsky direction of the Moscow region Three years of searching through local groves in vain. I really want to finally find the elusive female

And they don't fly to the light?
In my opinion, they are everywhere where there are birches. We flew this year from April 17, the last one I saw on the screen on May 2. Females, of course, fly to the screen several times less, but they still happen.

No, only males arrived, and only in the country. Put in the grove-one May bug

Don't despair! Females fly to the light, much less often than males, but they fly. This year, on the night from April 30 to May 1, 4 males and one female arrived (Domodedovo district). I do not think that the Paveletsky direction is in any way superior to Yaroslavl and others. Good luck!

No, only males arrived, and only in the country.

Wait and wait and wait. (in the summer season). And you will be happy

How many years I have been fishing, but I have never met a mourner either in the steppe zone in Yenakiyevo or in the forest park zone of Kharkiv.

21.03.2015 in Zhytomyr region, Korostensky district, a colleague caught a mourner. Wintered, hardly at the end of March stray. If possible,we can go there in July and look for them.

Good afternoon! Tell me, has anyone caught a pavonia this year? The reports are silent, their attempts were also unsuccessful...

I don't know how it is now, but they used to fly on the Spartacus.

How and where, and when is it better to look for the fan - winged Alucitidae??
They never got caught at all, never flew into the light...

Fan-wings belong to the group of butterflies that do not fly well or do not fly at all to the light. You need to look for fan wings in the evening or at dusk (if the weather is overcast, they can fly during the day). That is, come to their intended habitats in the evening and observe what is flying. In flight, they resemble small moths. But, be patient and persevere - most likely, it will not be easy to find them.

Thank you.
So you can expect to find them in any biotopes?

You need to know what species live in your area or theoretically can live. And what biotopes (+forage plants) they inhabit. Represent the dates of their release. And purposefully go looking in the right places at the right time.
You can, of course, look for them and just hoping for luck, but then the chances are low.

The question arose: Is it really possible to find Lymantria monacha and Sphinx pinastri in a pine forest (near the village of Vasishcheva, Kharkiv region) during the day? And in what quantity (without headboards)?
Thank you in advance?

Please tell us more about the mourning women.

I still haven't told you where we have mourning girls
I read somewhere that mourning women prefer large rivers, and that the Seversky Donets has a population, but where is unknown . Search for .

I have it right near my house (Slavuta, Khmelnitsky region). pine forest, we often walk there as a family, just yesterday I found a female nun on the path, but she was most likely scared out of a tree by a strong wind, last year I saw a male once-he was sitting on a tree, and flew away when trying to approach. I have never met a pine tree during the day, both of these species are quite common in the surrounding area.

I was repeatedly flown to the light, at different points, and not in single copies. True one species of Alucita grammodactyla.

Once again, the fanwing was trapped.

I wonder if anyone else has any advice on this?

The simplest advice is to go looking))) I recently found marble crushers and giant ant lions in a pine forest, if you walk a lot and for a long time you will find everything)

Good day to all! Who can tell you if Lymantria dispar females are born?

Flying.

They're flying. Last season I had more females than males.
