And if it's not a secret - more detailed conditions of capture and the total length of the beetle?

The length is 8 millimeters. Actually, the cell of gauze on which the beetle is photographed is millimeter.
Indeed, it's a male armiger, I looked it up.
The beetle was caught in flight at 23.15 (i.e. at the very beginning of the night) on the edge of the forest. That place was well reached at that moment (due to the calmness, because usually the wind from the field drives all the forest smells back into the forest) by the dung stink: there are feeders visited by wild boars nearby in the forest (a year earlier, a herd of 18-19 heads was recorded and filmed leaving the feeders late at night). Location-Serebryanoprudsky district, near the village. Extra people.
By the way, from interesting things in the same place regularly comes across Carabus sibiricus (both sexes).
Victor: can you remind me where this armiger was mentioned in the reports specifically for the Ministry of Defense? I can't find something by name using the search. Except that it is mentioned by Konstantin (Kemist) in the plans for 2014 as a desirable find in the Ministry of Defense. And so only from the south. It seems, however, that in the CC of the Ivanovo region. specified...

http://oopt.aari.ru/rbdata/2401/bio/67761 In the same place, I found instructions in the Criminal Code of the Yaroslavl region (based on finds from almost 100 years ago!)

Why a hundred years old?

Once again: this year I took a female armiger into a soil trap in the Rostov district of the Yaroslavl region (05.06.2014). Biotope - border of meadow and mixed forest (spruce, pine, small-leaved species). This is one of my top finds of the current season!

I looked it up, thank you. Interestingly, it flies to the light, and there for two nights of fishing with a generator for two lamps, nothing like this arrived. Yes, and the forest there is not old deciduous, old deciduous except that it is found among old and medium-aged conifers and even young deciduous along the edges; plus bayrachny oak forests, but the nearest one is about a kilometer away. So still on MO-marked here on the forum it in MO or not?In the CC there are three regions (but not for the Moscow Region), plus it is indicated for the Smolensk region, but I don't see it for the Moscow Region.

Andrey, finds from the Moscow region on the forum, if my memory serves me correctly, were noted-now I'm too lazy

to look (in my opinion, I need to look in the topic "Definition of beetles"). But I can cite reliable sources about the finds in the Moscow region:
1) N. B. Nikitsky, I. N. Osipov, M. V. Chemeris, V. B. Semenov, and A. A. Gusakov
Coleoptera-xylobionts, mycetobionts, and lamelliferae of the Prioksko-Terrasny Biosphere Reserve (with an overview of the fauna of these groups in the Moscow Region).
Proceedings of the Zoological Museum of Moscow State University, vol. 36. Series "Research on fauna". Moscow, MSU Publishing House, 1996, 197 p.:
"Known from the vicinity of Pushchino and Zvenigorod (collected in a window trap). Finds occur in June-July"
2) N. B. Nikitsky, 2009 New and interesting finds of xylophilic and some other Coleoptera insects (Coleoptera) in the Moscow region and Moscow / / Bulletin of the MOIP, Department of Biology, Vol. 114, Issue 5, pp. 50-58:
"It was recorded in significant numbers in the Alpatievo station area from collections in window and soil traps in June-July 2001, 2004 and 2007, as well as singly in the Lishnyagi village area in June-July 2002. In addition, it was caught in artificial light in the Lenkovo village of the Ruzsky district in June-July 2002.July 2005-2008"

This is data from the Yaroslavl Region CC, and only (we are talking about instructions in official documents).

Do you think I don't know the contents of the Yar region CC? Not modestly, but perhaps it is appropriate here: there is a link to my data in this publication

, and a number of its authors are my colleagues and friends. Naturally, I informed them about my discovery of the current season. As for the official documents, I gave references to a more than reputable author - Nikitsky N. B.-these are relatively regular (though not frequent) finds in the Moscow region. Rummaging around, I found a link to messages about nakhodakhs in M. O. on the forum: http://molbiol.ru/forums/index.php?showtop...537#entry518537
Therefore, your surprise about the discovery of the respected A. Y. Elez is not so justified - the right emotions here are joy for a colleague and for what has once again been confirmed-the view (a tramp like that!) it still occurs here.

Flying in, skidding is excluded: firstly, this is unlikely given the biology of this species, and secondly, in fact, I had two copies this year (also a female) - I didn't immediately write about the second copy, since I can only confirm the first find with a collector's copy, and the second" girl " armiger(a) I, clumsy incompetent missed (to fantasize is not inclined ). Third, the beetles were taken to soil traps in their usual biotope (armiger was also found in the Kaluga Region in similar ones, as I indicated above). So your skepticism about the Yaroslavl origin of the beetle in this case is inappropriate. As for the lack of knowledge about his food preferences - that's probably the point.

Accepted. The only thing I didn't understand about skepticism.

And it is expensive only because it is practically not artificially bred (like mushrooms and oyster mushrooms), and collecting it in nature is fraught with significant difficulties (dogs/pigs are trained there...). We just don't know how to look for it. Expensive truffles, by the way, are only real, so-called white, and there are other types that can be found (and are found!) in the middle lane. In addition, there is evidence in the literature that armiger develops not only and not exclusively on truffles, but on underground parts of mushrooms in general.

Colleagues, why argue? Truffles were and still are, both in the Moscow region and in the Yaroslavl region! Especially in Kaluzhskaya and further south. Previously, they were held under the name"black truffle". I don't know the specific name. Quite an edible, delicious mushroom. He himself found it back in the 70s on the edges of mixed forests, along the edges of large clearings... I searched with the help of a dog. Found the bm successfully.
