... Marching net is made of rod and landing net. for all his faults, he has one, but a very big advantage - instantly develops! I noticed that many people, especially abroad, are inadequate to the men (it's not the children!) And holding a Sachek and attracting unnecessary attention.For example, Thais, whom I met in the jungle, thinking that I catch birds, Latinos stopped and watched for a long time, his mouth open, and others. And so, I resigned for 2 seconds and go, kind of like an umbrella. That's about the light I have nothing comes out: I drive with a UV special.lamp (photo), I pull out the night in a hotel on the balcony, and it flew, mainly mosquitoes and sandflies. Peter, can that advise? Compact. I'm going to the end of January in Sri Lanka.

05.12.2013 11:27, Dmitriy Pozhogin

Sri Lanka very carefully! Big penalties for any butterfly. Until imprisoned.

05.12.2013 15:17, Alex Dumchus

Opachki ... so? Dmitriy. Thank you very much for the information. Then we have to think about whether to go at all? Maybe once in Thai? Maybe there soon all ustakanilos?

05.12.2013 15:40, Svetlana Shchavelina

Alexander, what do you think: all over Tae riots? Only in the capital. You're not coming to Bangkok to shoot butterflies, do not you? How many times I went to Tai (in the wild often) only Soidaow National Park saw a lot of butterflies on the river. Photographing them was extremely difficult: sit far away, and it is necessary to climb on the rocks. Here Laos in this regard - is much more interesting.There povylovilo local population of birds ate insects porazmnozhilis.

In fact it is not so scary, is not important to glow. If you have specific questions on Sri Lanke- I can help. It was in February this year.

05.12.2013 17:14, Alex Dumchus

My answer to Svetlana: the fact that we have from Rostov-on-Don flights via Bangkok, with a stop there back and forth for a couple of days. ECHO charter, and I think the tour operators temporarily stopped flying. Tomorrow, I will know.

05.12.2013 17:19, Alex Dumchus

Dmitry, something I got sick in Sri. Already wife persuaded. going to the hotel Bentota is south of Colombo 100-150 kilometers. In both without a net, and that there is generally done? Sknorklinga diving and there is the definition of net-like eggplant stupid sunbathing on the beach? Can jerk to Malaysia - Borneo or Cambodia? What will advise?

05.12.2013 17:34, Svetlana Shchavelina

Alexander, at Bangkok International Airport is actually quite far from the city. I think really the end of January it will resolve the whole situation.
Malaysia - fun, but there is humidity year-round in the forest and land leeches, as the locals say, a million ... Brrrr ...
Cambodia - the same "God bless." You never know who that will climb to the head ...Suddenly they do not like your appearance ... Danger. If you need it in this region - so it's better to southern Vietnam, the nature of the same, and to the Russian are normal.

05.12.2013 17:51, Alex Dumchus

Svetlana. In Tae I have been several times, all on different islands (actually my favorite country!), I was not only on the Krabi, ever going to fly. in contrast to Moscow from Rostov flight arrives in Bangkok, and then taken to the city in a hotel (usually choose adjacent to the main street - it seems Suhumburi or something like that.Bangkok, at least in the center. part, I know better than growth. Because the distance, traffic jams are great. As for Vietnam, it was in April this year, Fantete is close to Mui Ne. Country cool, nice people (but less than in Tae) .Babochek there is even less than we do in the summer. Two weeks stay caught a couple of Danaides and several whiteflies. All ..A Tae except Phuket, Samui and KoChange one exit in the jungle lovilos 10-15 copies, many dispensed due to substandard type. What Cambodia ??? Praise Sihanoukville ...

05.12.2013 17:59, Alex Dumchus

Dmitriy. Actually Sri interested me because P.polymnestor and some other endemics. If no trouble, answer, whom they cheshuekr .. you met there.

05.12.2013 18:06, Svetlana Shchavelina

Oh, no, Alexander, in Cambodia, I never set foot ... Because I go to Thai Thai to their friends (no tours!), And they like the locals quite trust. So here they are in talks about Cambodia chilly shrugs. So it is better "perebdet": healthier you will be.

Laos and Vietnam - yes, of course it is less developed than Thailand, this is understandable.You just have to keep this in mind. However, may appreciably in the near future in Vietnam: one new acquaintance invited the Vietnamese biologist climb through the woods to look for new varieties of Hoi An.

05.12.2013 18:29, Alex Dumchus

And where in southern Viet forest? We drove 250 km in one direction, all shaved, just like in Spain, then traveled to Dalat (there on the mountains have little forests). But Lepidoptera always tight. But in the northern well, but I did not go Rider ...

05.12.2013 19:33, Svetlana Shchavelina

And, no, I'm in central or northern Vietnam plan. A friend of mine from Hanoi.

06.12.2013 9:04, Dmitriy Pozhogin

Polimnestora caught in India. Reserve Bondla, Goa. Need Sachek with very long handle. It flies high.
Vietnam should go to the Chinese border -laosskoy. South Vetnama- desert.
Cambodia is the best option. Around the forest and great temples. You can combine business with pleasure. Everything is very cheap.
Sri Lanka's main aim was Ypthima ceylonica Hewitson, 1864.What specific types are you interested in?

06.12.2013 9:10, Dmitriy Pozhogin

Malaysia Borneo flying on 7 February. There is nothing terrible in Cambodia did not notice. All very friendly, unlike the artful Thais spoiled But the crappy tourist contingent in Sri Lanka.

06.12.2013 9:14, Dmitriy Pozhogin

I am in Sri Lanka over the sea five days stuck in Maravilla. Delias eucharis and P. hector complete. Then I take a taxi for 5 days and traveled all dostopritelnosti (merit, in my opinion, only Sigiriya). Then again, he is resting on the sea.

06.12.2013 9:23, Dmitriy Pozhogin

From your options, I would recommend Cambodia (of Taya get cheap can be from Bangkok and Pattaya). I traveled from Pattaya to Siem Reap. I recommend catching on to Kbal Spean. During the afternoon session 46 species.

06.12.2013 9:31, Dmitriy Pozhogin

Here is a photo KBAL Spean. I was there and caught. How to explain popast-. http://www.justin-klein.com/exploring-angkor-river-of-a-thousand-lingas/

06.12.2013 16:11, Alex Dumchus

Thank you, Mr. In Sri go like some other time. Ordered tour operators - see Cambodia, something close to the sea - Sihanoukville? And where you catch how far from this place?

06.12.2013 16:19, Alex Dumchus

Dmitriy. How are Cambodians to catching butterflies? Rest we will beach, whether there is a jungle near the beaches? To be able to pass peshochkom -pair times a day?

06.12.2013 18:04, Svetlana Shchavelina

Alexander, for your purposes need not just a jungle, and some stream / river in the forest, and even better - a small waterfall with a more or less convenient approach. In such places butterflies arrive to drink ... That's basically everywhere they fly, but in places like ... More perespevshie chew fruits fallen from the trees ...

06.12.2013 18:19, Alex Dumchus

In Tae I caught on paths and clearings through the jungle. It receives much more than near the brook. I do not know why, but some sand from sinking handles very little. Only Belyanko and a little bit parusniki- Graphiumy. Eploei, setozii, Juno, Memnon and other troidesy not sit ever, only flowers or catching a fly.

07.12.2013 8:55, Alex Dumchus

Dmitry, au..otzovites. Soon tours to take. And you promised to tell about Cambodia. bBolshe all I'm interested in the proximity of the jungle to the hotels in Sihanouk .. and how to get to the place you specify how far from the beach and hotel beds?

07.12.2013 12:59, Svetlana Shchavelina

Last night friends flew from Bangkok, inquired about the riots, I was told: "Do not read Soviet newspapers." Everything was there - it's in front of the Government House, the rest live in the capital normally.

07.12.2013 13:34, Shamil Murtazin

Alexander, I think, have the opportunity to torment tour operators to provide such information, or even addresses. Then they look at guglokartah (or somewhere else) alone. With this "intelligence" will exhaust (I think). Yes, and navigate the terrain better.That certainly does not diminish the usefulness of the information from Dmitri, if he has time to answer before your departure =)

07.12.2013 13:47, Alex Dumchus

Shamil, as I always do. But if you can !!! ask the person to orient to catch butterflies !!! - Then why not? Sam, if someone has to, I can answer questions about the butterflies on the islands Taya, South Viet-Meksikanam Dominican Republic, not to mention Turkey, Emirates, Ebiptu where there are practically no ..

09.12.2013 9:28, Dmitriy Pozhogin

Aleksanlr! I was not Suanukvile, I can not tell. I was in Siem Reap (where Angkor Wat). Tour operators, I did not use. He was first in Thailand and then decided to go to Cambodia. From the South of Pattaya Big C is a bus to the border (300 baht). In Aranyaprattete (Thailand) go abroad (visa 20 pupaars), and find yourself in the town of Poipet (Cambodia).There's a bus or a taxi (about $ 20 per car and 4 hours drive) went to Siem Reap. There's always the country impassable jungle. Guesthouse for two $ 30 for 4 days with breakfast and kondeem. From there you can go to Suanukvil sea bus (12 bucks in my opinion). But I saw Angkor Wat and others. Temples, plus caught.Rouge on the drum, when my catch, but after I try Cuba to me with a net not seen. In general there were no incidents. I regret that I have not bought a generator and sexually night.

09.12.2013 13:59, Alex Dumchus

Clearly, spasibo.dumayu jungle I find.
Now to decide otelem.A that in Cuba, the problems with catching?

11.12.2013 8:15, Dmitriy Pozhogin

In Cuba, the national population plays to tear money from tourists.

11.12.2013 16:09, Peter Khramov

Dim, well, you add all the same, what is the sum of the population of Cuba considers the money: -) And then scare away some people.

12.12.2013 10:21, Dmitriy Pozhogin

Will not. Let the people are not relaxing.

12.12.2013 13:27, Svetlana Shchavelina

Lord, I've been asked about a Thai friend of Cambodia ... because I think that people who live close to this country, they know some of the nuances in some way better than we do ... that's what she told me (quote):
"For go to Cambodia for catch butterflies ... not bad ... still ok ... but do not go alone

because only in town can speak good English .. and .. Becareful ... this nation eat "dog"

ask for make sure before eat something ... they eat many insect too "

12.12.2013 19:20, Peter Khramov

I learn these sweet English-speaking momentum. Similarly, Yugoslavia inglishe glagolyut ...

13.12.2013 9:04, Dmitriy Pozhogin

Dogs delicious. The Chinese and Koreans eat them too. Seoul has a restaurant serving dishes from all sobachatiny. Insect eating (lots of fried tarantulas sold). In Thailand also eat insects (seen fried grasshoppers, scorpions and water bugs belastom). Especially in poorer provinces such as Insan. In South America, iguanas eat. In Vietnam, the frogs.In my eating habits and knowledge of English natives do not affect the catch Lepidoptera. Your friend says is subjective. She lives close to Cambodia, but maybe in Cambodia and was not.As far as I understand it, Taya and Cambodia relations are tense due to constant conflicts temple, so the population dissenting opinion about the neighbors. I was in Tae three times from Chiang Mai to Surat Thani, but I liked Cambodia. But the taste and color of all the markers are different. In Thai, and if go, then just to the north.But be sure to come back to Cambodia someday.

13.12.2013 9:08, Dmitriy Pozhogin

By the way, Olga Averyanov lived or still live in Sihanoukville. Write to her, she will tell a lot.

14.12.2013 11:37, Svetlana Shchavelina

Dmitri, the taste and color - it is clear ... But personally, I do not know what the reaction will happen to my stomach if I find that ate sobachatiny. In Laos, our driver (local) ate crickets, the desire to try not appeared for some reason ... although the possibility was. On catching butterflies, of course, all this has no effect, but people should know some of the nuances.My friend secretly described this moment precisely because it knows that especially need to know the Europeans, because she is married to Germans, PhD in ichthyology (I correctly wrote? ... Well, in short - a scholar of the fish).

In the picture: a dish of spiders (Cambodia)

14.12.2013 17:36, Vasiliy Feoktistov

A sobachatiny: she lamb straight ..... once in the Trans-Baikal region (served there) were treated. As long as you do not know who em - no retching :)

14.12.2013 18:29, Svetlana Shchavelina

Basil, the man - omnivorous. And the meat eaten in this region (judging by Thailand and Laos) - a little. It is understandable, it's hot out there ... And, I admit, not all particularly fastidious in relation to food. I've slightly squeamish, in any case - within reasonable limits. But there are others, so it is better to know than not to know.And then - is your choice, the opposite may want exotic food in feelings? Now I find that in Laos food is ... Ah, here:
