There are)

Hello,
with the type of ant help to decide-now it is relevant, since all the forms are in the Red Book)

and no one will help with bumblebees?)

Here are such funny e-mails in the summer constantly fly into the apartment. What they need is not clear, but I'm curious to know the name;-)

In one of Grebennikov's books, I saw a drawing of a similar eardrum...

I have a couple of specimens from the Krasnodar Territory-identified as Evania punctata (Evaniidae). Looks like. Looks like your animal is from the same family. They are common in houses on the windows in the south. They write that they are parasitic on cockroaches.

I'll try to think about your bumblebees and ant this weekend.
But for me, the definition of Bombus and Formica by photo is a matter of constant doubt. So all the options will be just a guess...

Thank you. I think given the variability and similarity of the assumption, this is normal. They are needed for illustrations for the training course on the Red Data Book of the region. In general, it might be enough as in the book itself "weight ants of the genus foromika and bumblebees of the genus bombus", but I would like to be more specific

Correctly identified. There are only 3 species from 3 genera in Europe. Only the name of this parasite in the cockroach ootecs is Blatta orientalis and Periplaneta americana now Prosevania fuscipes Illiger

to Dr Niko

It is unlikely that this is Ophion, the stalk of the abdomen should be more slender at this time, and it is desirable to see the venation of the wings. And the sawyere of Ophion is much longer. And for the future-the images should be larger, so to say something is very difficult, besides the object takes up at most 10% of the entire image, which is not good


to Furslen

Photo # 4 shows Arge ustulata L. (family Argidae), the most common member of the family

In photo 6, it seems to me that Ammophila sabulosa L. is distinguished by the metallic luster of the apical tergites of the abdomen (bluish or greenish). More precisely, we can say by seeing the venation of the forewing - the 3rd radiomedial (also known as cubital) cell (2Rs) should be sessile from above, whereas in A. campestris it is stalked. This is if there is not caught any Siberian species, which I do not undertake to judge-the Urals...

I haven't looked in for a long time...
The prey is very similar to Actinotia polyodon (Noctuidae).

Only the name of this parasite in the cockroach ooteks is Blatta orientalis and Periplaneta americana now Prosevania fuscipes Illiger

This is all available literature on this group of families in the first half of the 20th century. I really need a fresh one. But where can I find it?

Join us!!!! Friends, if you want the correct definition, take several photos from different angles. In the photo of an ant, for example, I miss the front view of the face. I want to look at the trim panel. And there, as if on purpose, the mustache closes everything.

Here's the platband chuut barely visible )

Great! Photography is great! Indeed, you can insert them into books.
Now about the case. I reviewed almost all the Formica species found in the north and central part of Russia. I'll probably disappoint you. Most closely resembles Formica polyctena Forster, 1850 The most common species.
Very similar. Most likely it is.

Thank you)
the view is normal, but in our regional Red Book there is)) - Small Forest Ant

"The Chelyabinsk Red Data Book is so severe that even Formica polyctena is listed in it"
Sorry for the offtop

Well, what did they bring in) well, at least the Lasius and Myrmica genera were not brought in)

"The Chelyabinsk Red Data Book is so severe that even Formica polyctena is listed in it" :) :)
Sorry for the offtop:)

And they decided not to think much about it there. Just en masse, the entire genus Formica was recorded in the Red Book and that's it. Like, the average person can't tell one view from another anyway.
So it turns out all sorts of garbage.
As I understand it: a simple Chelyabinsk resident stepped on an ant-that's all, a criminal

Well, no one became worse from entering ants en masse in the Red Book (since no one actually protects the Red Book except for individual enthusiasts), as well as better (except for those who write reports on monitoring, imagine how many detection points of Red Book forms and bombs can be painted).

What about bumblebees? You also wanted to see them

About the first one I can say-perhaps Bombus agrorum F. And even then... It differs from our agricultural forums in some way.
2 and 3 vaashche pitchfork. The third one is rather peculiar, and not easy to define. Maybe it's a Siberian species? My bumblebees are so-so. I know the main European types

Here is such an Oska. Can I say something?" There are other angles, although not very high-quality...

Polistes sp.

If from the Yaroslavl region-probably Polistes nimpha

Yes, from Yaroslavl: Borisoglebsky district, Borushki village.

This is all available literature on this group of families in the first half of the 20th century. I really need a fresh one. But where can I find it?

There is a recent catalog:
Deans, Andrew R. 2005. Annotated catalog of the world's ensign wasp species (Hymenoptera: Evaniidae). Contributions of the American Entomological Institute, vol. 34, no. 1. 1-164.

a bibliography on Evanioidea is available here: http://evaniid.tamu.edu/public/ref

Small membrane (in my opinion less than 1 cm), Crimea, August...

Looks like an asshole infecting the worshippers of the ooteka. I just don't know the name

Thanks! Family at least...: -)

Thanks! The family at least... :-)

Maybe Chalcididae?
I'm probably wrong. But I noticed that as soon as you express the wrong version, a specialist immediately appears and puts the layman in his place.

That's for sure. We're starting to get closer...

I found something like it in the picture, but I don't understand what it's called
? Brachymeria intermedia

Look at this! Did you really guess?

South of Primorye, October

to Juglans
sub-family. Ichneumoninae

Yes, this is Polistes for sure! In addition, the twisted segments of the antennae (the latter) speak very eloquently-MALE!!!

It is hardly definable up to the genus, but who knows:
Primorye, early October

Dear colleagues! Please help me identify this sawfly! I'm not an expert on eardrums, so I tried to identify it, of course, using the Green Identifier. I only realized that he was from the tentredinids, but there were already problems with the genus, I don't have any comparative material. The photos were taken in April of this year in the east of Ukraine. Biotope — flower beds in a city park. The area is steppe, but on the site of the park there were previously gardens, and even earlier (before the 20th century) - bayrachnaya oak grove with steppe areas. This sawfly is one of the most common in high summer, preferring to feed on the yellow flowers of herbaceous plants (dandelion, tulips of the local flora, primroses, chistyak, etc.).

Hello, can you tell me what kind of Moscow insects they are?

The first three images belong to the same insect
(beginning of June, on mountain clover), and the 4th-to another (end of June, on mouse pea).
(they seem to differ in their wings-shape and sklydyvayut differently)

PS: the second one carries pollen on the lower leg in a basket (the first time I saw it with such luggage)?
Thanks

The first three images are the bumblebee-cuckoo Psithyrus sp.
And three times-yes, it transfers pollen, but not on the lower legs, I'm on the first segment of the legs, in the so-called "basket"

The first three images are the bumblebee-cuckoo Psithyrus sp.

I would call this animal Psithyrus rupestris.
