Blattidae gen. sp. From this photo, it is impossible to determine what it is: male or female, imago or larva.

Another cockroach. It turned out to be a female, demolished the ooteka. Koh Rong, Cambodia.

tell me about woodlice.
I brought it from Thailand. they live in the tidal zone. Some individuals
are greenish. They have been living for a month, the first generation has died or died out, the second generation is still small, the state is three. I spray the leaf substrate with sea water. I give spirulina occasionally. I would like to decide on the type, or rather even with nutrition, there is an option that they feed on microflora, and that slowly bends... Maximum size 2-2. 5 cm

It's hard to tell from the photo. Most likely Pycnoscelus, probably niger. But there may be a blattida, although this is less likely. Everything should be clear from the ootheca, pycnosceluses are blaberids, i.e. they carry the ootheca inside the brood bag. Accordingly, the ootheca is long and weakly sclerotized. In Blattidae, the ootheca develops outside the female's body, relatively short, strongly sclerotized, with a well-defined crest.

Close. The genus is most likely Homalosilpha, from the Blattidae family.

Thanks for the reply. This is definitely not pycnocelus nigra, I have them and they are very easy to identify before the species - they are immediately buried in the substrate. This is just blattida, wore ooteka on the pope for about a day. And another small cockroach. Kep, Cambodia.

Is this really a Strepsiptera larva? or was there something else clinging to his belly?

Hello!
Please help a non-specialist identify the insect:
MO, Podolsky district, for two days now, around 0: 00 at night, two of these comrades appear in the room of a wooden house. There is an infant in the room – I want to know the danger of these creatures and the reason for their appearance at such a late hour for insects.
Thank you.

These are single wasps up to the species I will not say, if necessary, put in the topic of defining hymenoptera. They are probably hatched either from the ground in indoor plants, this often happens if pots with plants are outside in the summer, or from wooden structures, if they are installed recently, many single bees and wasps nest in existing natural cavities in the wood. Usually, bred in the house, they gather on the window during the day attracted by daylight, you probably are attracted by some light source in the room, so they fly at night. Contrary to the frightening name "wasps", they are not dangerous if you do not grab them with your hands and do not shove them in your mouth. In your case, they are trying to get out on the street so they fly to the light, there is nothing and no one is interested in them in the house, you can just catch them and let them go outside during the day or, if you are very confused, with a sneaker and into the trash.

John-ST, thank you for your reply.
There are no indoor plants in the house, the house itself has been standing since 2005.
Can they live in walls (I can't think of any other options)?

07.04.2014 15:37, guest: Alexey

.and do they have a sting and what do they bite with if they do?

07.04.2014 19:45, John-ST

.and do they have a sting and what do they bite with if they do?

They bite like all animals with their jaws (mandibles), females have a sting. Because of the small size, they can't bite through the skin, they probably sting too, at least I didn't get stung by such small ones (meaning fingers and palms, the skin is much thicker on them). The sting of solitary wasps is designed to paralyze invertebrates that they feed to larvae, stinging for humans and large animals is not dangerous, in addition, you need to try to be stung, because unlike public wasps and bees, solitary ones do not attack, they can only sting defensively if they are caught.
The house could be entered in the summer through open windows, an attic, a veranda, various cracks, apparently the female saw a good place somewhere and built a nest there, now the wasps have hatched and are trying to get out into the street. Perhaps you yourself could have brought the nest into the house in some wooden object. Some can build nests in the hollow stems of various plants (such as reeds), you could bring them with some dried flowers.
You have nothing to fear release the animals on voly

Apparently, yes, this is a female or pupa of a fan-winged bird. Females can be extracted from the abdomen of wasps and bees, and males can be extracted from pupae, and all this is stored in alcohol. This type of material can be identified. On bees in the spring, they are not so rare.

Yesterday it was only on a beetle, today on a nymph of an equal-winged dragonfly
. Does someone lay eggs on them, or are they some kind of protozoa?

Do any of the aquatic insects feed on them? or is it better to get rid of them?

Sessile infusoria, probably Opercularia.

I didn't think much about it. Maybe aquarists will advise something. And whether it is necessary...

they have already captured almost all the insects, I wanted to dry the dragonfly skins, but if these amoebas grow, they will all be covered with a plaque that cannot be cleaned from the tender skins

Aquarists treat fish from protozoa / bacteria passing through solutions of table salt, iodine, blue, I think you need to look in the field of diseases of aquarium fish

26.04.2014 1:19, AlexEvs

As far as I remember, my friends treated fish from protozoa with methylene blue. Although, as it seems to me, sessile ciliates do not pose a danger to insects

Unfortunately, it didn't work out well - it was small (about seven millimeters) and quick. Maybe you can still identify who it is. Taken on 27.04.2014 in the Moscow region.

Please tell me who they are and how harmful they are to fruit crops. Today is the first time I saw such wonderful birds, flying in pairs, hairy, in a pair of one yellow second green, desperately devouring flowers.

Thank you very much. We will think about how to deal with this scourge sitting on every third flower. This has never happened before.
