And the sixth - I looked at Ophthalmis vithoroides from agaristidae-probably the only example to follow. Вот ссылка: gorodinski.ru/lepidoptera_agaristidae-ophthalmus.html

Yes, it looks like it. By the way, I didn't find this photo on Google: apparently, it just appeared (the site is commercial). It seems that mine will be lighter - the ratio of black and white is more like that of a moth (but this may be individual variability in the size of spots). The abdomen of the ophthalmis and moth is exactly the same. And the sawyere of ophthalmis is just threadlike.
In general, I was strengthened in my intention to get my own and compare it.

At Elena mikhaylovna about 5 years ago I determined Eupithecia moth. Cooked - determined. I docked with Samodurov. Since then, I decided to deal with moths. Also, the crested ones take up a lot of space.

Interestingly, by the way, a Google search for this species (Ophthalmis vithoroides) gives only 3 results, and all on Gorodinsky's website, about how.

Malinnitsa is also from the Astrakhan region?

Yes, all of them are from Astrakhan. So Raspberries ? And the full name ?

Granny-Callophrys rubi

Not so easy. In the Astrakhan region, there is also Callophrys chalybeitincta - in addition to the Lower Volga, it is found in the Caucasus (the type locality is Dagestan), in the Kazakhstan Caspian region. That's why I asked where it was filmed.
I will not be able to specify the definition of the underside, but the top of the chalybeitincta is not pure brown, but with a grayish-bluish sheen.

19.05.2006 13:30, Vlad Proklov

+About raspberries.

The subspecies Callophrys chalybeitincta eitschbergeri Dantchenko, 2000 was described from the Astrakhan region. And it seems that it is more widespread there than rubi.

Something I doubt that this is livida. And why is the color of the elytra so strange? Variability?

20.05.2006 10:25, Dmitry Vlasov

About myagkotelki. Indeed, in C. livida, the elytra are black in the north (the so-called var. rufipes), and yellow in the south! By the way, this species with yellow elytra is also very rare in the north.

Help me determine more precisely :
A scoop .
Roisterer.
The hornet? Very large ~3cm. Caught. It seems to eat honey, (but they are predators and feed on wasps). I would like to watch and take pictures . I would be grateful for advice on keeping this animal in captivity.
All shot in Astrakhan.

Hawk moth (Smerinthus ocellatus).
It looks like a maple arrowhead (Acronicta aceris), but I'm not sure about that.

The hornet is real. They really have a sweet tooth, and animal food, like all social wasps, feeds the larvae.

P.S. Hornets are social wasps, you won't be able to keep one at home. You need to start a nest smile.gif

IMHO, the caterpillar of some crested bird is similar to the European Stauropus fagi-see, for example., http://www.rosfoto.ru/shop/photo/4197/

06.06.2006 10:12, Guest

And then what will hatch out of it - some kind of butterfly?

06.06.2006 10:51, Nilson

Precisely! It is very similar to the caterpillar of the beech moth S. fagi. If it comes to imago, you'll get a cute, plump moth.

06.06.2006 11:25, Guest

Yes, I found a picture of a butterfly. The worm in the photo is seven centimeters long - what size will the butterfly be? ...

06.06.2006 14:11, BO.

Help me identify the butterfly.

I am afraid to make a mistake, I have only seen S. fagi caterpillars, but the adult individual is not very large, the body length is about half that of the caterpillar, i.e. about 3 cm.

Long legs as if to intimidate predators (if I'm not mistaken).
But the fact that this is Stauropus fagi is not a fact. There are as many as 5 species of the genus Stauropus in the Japanese archipelago.
Although the caterpillar is quite suitable for the Japanese subspecies stauropus fagi persimilis.

The view, even more likely some kind of local, Japanese. And I agree about the paws. Anyway, it seems like someone is sort of eating someone.

False chicken pox again. It looks like a dotted line-Dysauxes punctata.
And phegea is now in dipper, if I'm not mistaken.

If it is in dipper, then all false chickenpox - on the rights of the subfamily smile.gif

07.06.2006 18:18, sealor

Yes, that's right, all the pseudopestrels as subfamilies of the Arctidae are also phegea with a dot in different subfamilies. But in fact, the Russian name of the species does not change, so as they were pseudo-chicken pox, so they are not .. there are probably smile.gif

Can you tell me what these micros are?
Photographed today, June 11, in South London.
The first two are from a light trap, the third is on lavender in the garden.
The second and third ones are obviously fireballs, but I would like to be more precise.

I found a baggy bank today. The cover is quite long, ~40mm. Can you tell me what kind? I have drawings where the most similar one in size and shape is C. vilosella.
Interestingly, the material of the cover is almost all artificial-dark shreds are burnt paper, there are still pieces of plasmass of some kind. Where I found it, construction debris was poured out.

Butterfly-flour firefly (Pyralis farinalis) or, possibly, another species of this genus (like, it does not look like either regalis or lienigialis, but it can still be found near Astrakhan).
