Posted your photos for identification - http://snake.spbland.ru. To begin with, a few caterpillars. I know that they are very difficult to identify (especially from photos). If anyone helps, I will be very grateful.

Something doesn't open for me. I got like this:
http://foto.spbland.ru/categories/7/page/0/
However, it still doesn't open in full size. It is very inconvenient that the images are not numbered. I think I found some caterpillars there:
Nymphalids, hawkmoth, scoops(and sagittarii), dippers, pigeons? In general, it is better to display the found caterpillar, then it will be clear exactly what kind of species it is.

Why it doesn't open in full size, I just tried everything opens just now. I agree with you about the numbering of images - it's my fault. How to understand "found caterpillar output" in the sense of zoom in on the picture? Let me still try to forward the archive to you(about 2 MB), it seems to me that it will be much easier.

Everything opens normally, don't worry! You can zoom in and record it!

Output - a caterpillar, not a picture! Well, grow up to pupate and hatch a butterfly smile.gif
Wow, I never thought about it. that "bring out the caterpillar" is already slang that is not clear to everyone...

02.12.2005 16:50, Maxim Ryzhov

Thanks for the definition! And other types? All photos were taken from the Central Strip of Russia (Rep. Mordovia). This is for ease of definition, so that there are no questions about where.

P.S. About the breeding of caterpillars (Helene) I created a topic in the content section. Answer/those if you don't mind.

02.12.2005 16:54, sealor

Snake,
"bring out the found caterpillar", I meant-bring out the butterfly from the found caterpillar.
I am not an expert to determine your materials. yes, and now I have the connection by which I would be able to get 2MB-does not workfrown.gif

P.S. About the breeding of caterpillars (Helene) I created a topic in the content section. Answer/those if you don't mind.

Have you noticed that there is one already there? (Raising caterpillars in captivity)? Why breed the same ones? And in the existing topic, by the way, there is already some information... Write there - what we know, we will answer smile.gif

It seems to me that the caterpillar, which is defined as Macrothylocia rubi, is more like the caterpillar of some bear, there are many similar ones.
385x516 is similar to ..a cabbage scoop? and 409x467 on the caterpillar of the ribbon cutter.
397x338 nymphalid probably, and 997x335 hawk moth, maybe even .. proserpine?
463x724 like some kind of strelchataka, or maybe also kistekhvost.

Thank you so much for your help!!!! What's the Russian word for Diloba caeruleocephala? I didn't find a translation in Plavilshchikov's determinant (there are no others).

They remain unrecognized (as it has already become customary to write sizes):
1 - 337х339 (lrg56058250wv.jpg)
2 - 843x583 (lrg56059265xw.jpg)
3 - 463x724 (lrg5604540ci.jpg)
4 - 383x428 (rg56050138ck.jpg)
5 - 409x467 (lrg56051154cc.jpg)
6 - 236x281 (lrg56052197nl.jpg)
7 - 553x637 (lrg56056235zq.jpg)

P.S. If I post butterflies and beetles one of these days, won't you throw me some slippers?

Sovkovidka sinegolovaya from the family of sovkovidok.

2 Mamestra oleracea garden scoop?
3 Pyrgus malvae Thickhead black and white.
5 Callistege mi Shovel clover
The rest-some kind of moth and microlepidoptera like all sorts.

Who is it? Southern Primorye, the coast of the Sea of Japan.
There were other - very large, roughly speaking-flies. My companion was terrified of both, even refusing to get out of the car. For some reason they didn't touch me, I walked calmly. And around the car swarm, sit on the warm hood. A local woman said they bite and hurt. What kind of animals?

Insects in the lower photo are not visible at allfrown.gif, and on the top-no fly, but some kind of hawk moth. A butterfly, by the way. The real thing. I don't think it can bite anyone, because it feeds on nectar. By the way, it makes it very interesting: it sucks it out of the flowers right on the fly, like a hummingbird.

29.12.2005 15:38, andr_mih

The bottom photo shows 2 silhouettes of some hefty flies. Most likely, these are ordinary horseflies, or, as they are called in the Vologda region, blind people. They drink bad blood. If your blood is good, then don't be afraid of them, they won't touch you. And if there is an excess of sugar in the blood or some kind of disease-they bite. In addition, they can drink the blood of fallen animals, so it is not recommended to feed them just for the sake of experiment.

29.12.2005 16:13, гость: Д

Come on, horseflies, intimidated straight, painfully healthy! Maybe beetles or eardrums, but what time was it taken?
I hope we won't talk about bad blood tongue.gif

By the way, I wonder what kind of hawk moth is this?

Taken at the end of July. By the way, there are lakes, marshy terrain. They don't look like beetles, they look like big flies.

29.12.2005 20:22, Guest

How many wings? Two pairs or one

29.12.2005 20:27, Pavel Morozov

Oh, my gosh! Yes, this is the hawk moth Clanis undulosa! (wavy clanis). This is a very cool hawk moth, probably the largest in Russia.
You should definitely catch them!
By the way, can you tell me exactly the place and date of the meeting?

29.12.2005 22:10, Bad Den

That is: This one?
http://images.google.com/images?num=100&hs...lr=&sa=N&tab=wi

Yes, 110+ mm in wingspan... Inspires!
Why do you have to catch it?

29.12.2005 23:29, Rosomaxa

Oh, my gosh! Why, it's the hawk moth of Tslanis Undulosa! (wavy clanis). This is a very cool hawk moth, probably the largest in Russia.
You should definitely catch them!
By the way, can you tell me exactly the place and date of the meeting?


July 27 of this year, Primorsky Krai, Khasansky district, Andreevka village, beach cafe by the sea. Primorye generally has a lot of bioexotics for Russia (which is not surprising, given the geographical location).
For example, I collected large blue-green butterflies right on the road (with a span of more than 10 cm), which fly in flocks over the road all over Primorye (see photo).
I've seen similar butterflies in the Kuril Islands. I regret that I do not understand botany at all - there are so many interesting things (bamboo, lianas, etc.)!

These are the gorgeous and Red-book Maak Swallowtails (Maak Tail-bearers) Achillides maackii. In the photo like male.

As I understand you! smile.gif
By the way, Rosomaxa, in the Kuril Islands you may not necessarily have seen the Maak tail-bearer, but its closest relative, the Achillides bianor Cramer, is also common there. It usually flies in broad-leaved forests.

Yes, A. bianor is even cooler!

Guest D, and we also drove all over Sakhalin wink.gif

If you are going to Primorye or the Kuril Islands, then the best time, I don't know how for entomologists, but in general - the second half of August-September. At this time, it is usually warm, sunny and dry. And the summer is capricious because of cyclones.
Yes, you need a pass to the Kuril Islands - it turns out that the border guards in Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk have a formality (if you are not a spy).

As for the hawk moth , I would venture to suggest that it is Agrias convolvuli (L.) (bindweed hawk moth)
