Thank you, I didn't know that they vary so much in size, after meeting with large ones, I thought it was some other kind.

Here is another crushed one, collected in the city on the sidewalk two weeks ago, of the same size and color, but the type, in my opinion, is already different, I assume P. affinis:




Or not?

And, perhaps, not quite a relevant question in this topic, but how best to catch them today? They sit high in the crowns, fly rarely, and catch the eye even less often (crushed ones don't count). Crown traps with mash - so that's for drowned people, but I need live ones to try to introduce them to the culture. Maybe they are more active at certain times of the day?

This is affinis

As for trapping, I first thought about the crown, of course, but if alive, then it comes to mind either to climb a tree with a large net and catch them there on the fly, or, again, to find a place where they feed - a crack with leaking tree sap - there they can be collected simply by hand. But, again, this place is most likely at a high altitude.

or make a crown, without drowning (somewhere I saw a photo on the forum, so translucent, in the bottom a piece of PET bottle with bait and a rag, and in the lid a hole for the entrance with a piece of pipe), the catch is less, but also collecting alive

I found a photo here

Kirovo-Chepetsk, Kirov region, May 20, on Sambucus racemosa.

I found a photo
here [attachmentid ()=263136]

I've already seen this photo and even made something similar out of a five-liter PET cylinder, except for a couple of dustpans, which are badly skinned, piles of flies and ants-nothing. Even the squirrel's fur remained on a strip of scotch tape, which this structure was attached to the tree trunk. I used to make heating traps, there was a bigger catch, but again-aki without bronzes. Probably, the fact is that we have very, very few of them, not like, for example,in the floodplain forests of the Seversky Donets. Still, I suspect that an active search with a net on a long stick (I have one for picking apricots) would be more effective, but I would like to know at what time of day they move more actively: in the morning, in the middle of the day, or in the evening.

It is precisely this trap that bronzes do not fall into so well, it is difficult for them to get knocked up. From simple zhivolovok under bronzes I use a 4-5l bottle from under drinking water, in one of the walls of which a U-shaped slot measuring from 15x15cm is made in 2/3 of the height (below the upper constriction), so that the hand can get through. The cut tongue is first bent outwards for access to the bottle and a large-pored foam soaked in bait is placed on the bottom (it is easier to wash it than a rag, for reusable use). In the opposite wall from the slot, at a height of 3-5cm from the foam rubber, several small holes are made so that the smell spreads well. Then the tongue bends back and the top is bent slightly inside the bottle, so that a gap with a height of 2-3cm appears on top, into which it is easy for the bronze to fly. The trap for the plastic eye of the lid on a nylon cord is suspended at the desired height in a convenient place where the marks are marked or can be bronze (it is desirable to have a removable swing sinker for throwing the cord through the branch). The free end of the cord is fixed at the bottom with a margin for descent. As a live trap and for greater catchability, this trap needs to be checked often (at least once a day, in the evening, and preferably 2-3 times a day), so it is important to choose a good place so that it does not catch on the descent and ascent. I usually load and hang several traps near the camp from early morning on trips during the planned day, and keep them until dark, checking a couple of times. The bait can be very different, usually a mixture of strong-smelling juice (apricot, peach, etc.) with a small amount of natural kvass and liquid honey, and it is best to add tree juice and crushed bark from local trunks, if available. It works best as long as the mixture is fresh enough. In general, the effectiveness is very dependent on the correct choice of location and bait. It is clear that in addition to bronzes, many other things are caught, from deer to erotilids. This would seem to be the simplest thing, it is done in 5 minutes, and how much was described by

Barnaba, thanks, I'll try. Before foam rubber and mash with the addition of oak bark from sochniki (I think there is a special yeast that gives a special smell), I did not reach, but I did not reach this design of slots. And at what height is it better to raise?

With ampedus, it's more or less clear, but it won't work out to the end?

With them, it can be difficult to take photos from the same angle. A number of species with red elytra differ mainly in the details of the pronotum structure and, partly, in size. Yours, with a high probability, A. sanguineus-should be large (12-17mm).
