Pamphilius ?gyllenhali

Please help me decide on the bear's tracks. Two different larvae, but possibly the same butterfly species. 12.06.2015 .

Most likely it is gus. P. plantaginis

Most likely it is a goose. P. plantaginis

Indeed, it looks very similar and fits the size. Thank you very much.

Chrysopidae gen. sp., but I think a specialist will determine much more accurately from this photo.

This is generally an underwater larva, I doubt that this is zlatoglazka

I didn't notice that it was water-based. Then really not goldeneye. But the similarity is great. From the water, perhaps, only beetles remain, probably Hydrophilidae, but I have not met similar ones (neither live nor in the photo).

Help me identify the caterpillar, please! Moscow region, found yesterday, crawling on the snow.

It is also available via links

It is about 2 cm long. I crawled in the snow, but I can't say for sure.

Phragmatobia fuliginosa

  Phragmatobia fuliginosa

Thank you very much! I read that she should not eat now, but should pupate immediately after waking up. Should we take her back to the forest?" Or will it still freeze there (zero-minus on the street, a lot of snow)?

(Or is it better to create conditions for her to pupate at home?) "while I was thinking, she started making a cocoon in the corner of her jar. Now the question is whether it will starve to death if it is bred as a butterfly before everything and everything blooms...

Butterflies from the group of bears (which also includes P. fuliginosa) do not feed in the adult state, and live only a few days due to the reserves accumulated by the caterpillar. So, in the conditions of a living room, the pupal stage will last one and a half to two weeks, and the butterfly will in any case be released before the flowering of everything and everything, and in a few days it will die.

Who can tell you the name of the butterflies? all found at the end of August in the north of the Rivne region (hawk moth caterpillar was taken away from ants - it is a little dragged...)

Thanks! I'll know in the future.

for example?

1 Brushes like volnyanka caterpillars. Acronicta auricoma doesn't have any of these.
2 The head of Acronicta auricoma is dark brown, almost black
3 It is necessary to look at what volnyanki are found in Ukraine (suppose Laelia coenosa)

1. I agree with the bundles (I didn't see them clearly).
2. Auricoma may also have a light head. ( you can see it from the Germans)
3 . It doesn't look like volnyanka, but I can offer you another option - Colocasia coryli

It looks like this is it

Help pozh-sta with the definition. Tatarstan, Nizhnekamsk district On July 23, 2015, they crawled en masse on country roads.

Help me identify the caterpillar (before the species)?
March 13, Kharkiv region, Russkaya Lozovaya street.
What should I feed her? He gave dandelion - does not eat, there were no plants around the caterpillar, there was almost only asphalt.

Please help me with the definition:

Looks like a kaya bear, but I doubt it. I found it today on the road in St. Petersburg. There is no greenery on the street at all what to feed?

Phragmatobia fuliginosa
You don't need to feed anything. Caterpillars of this species spend the winter almost as adults, and pupate in the spring without taking food.

TEMPUS, if it's not a secret, how do you do it? In my unsophisticated opinion, it is impossible to determine the family further from such a photo. Or is there a third eye to open?

I'll give you my opinion on the feed: it never hurts to give it a try. Bears with similar caterpillars are usually broad polyphages, all the green that you will find at this time, offer a little bit. I once had a very similar caterpillar placed in a 1.5-liter jar immediately began to eat any greens, from stargazer to wheatgrass, then wove a cocoon, then... shed in a cocoon, then got out and began to eat again, and then again wove a cocoon, from which it came out in the form of a butterfly Arctia villica. With these words, I do not question the definition of Tempus, but only remind you that in such cases it is better to have too much than not enough.

There is no secret here. Just 99% of all caterpillars that can be found at this time of year (March) in the specified area (the city of St. Petersburg) belong to the Phragmatobia fuliginosa species. The chances of meeting caterpillars of any other species at this time in the area indicated above are negligible. And the third eye has nothing to do with it.

thank you very much for the information)
Sent a miracle in a jar, gave cabbage, parsley (nothing else is special) while not eating-sleeping and crawling in circles. Standing in the shadows.

doesn't eat - sleeps and crawls in circles.

If he doesn't eat, this is another significant argument for Phragmatobia fuliginosa. This means that you will soon have a brood butterfly in your collection. Well, or flies...

Why flies?((

Why flies?((

Because the caterpillar can be infected with larvae tahini flies.

Good afternoon!
Can you tell me whose larvae chewed the trunk of the spruce?
Yel - the neighborhood of d. Kandinka in the Tomsk region.

I found something similar on a fallen spruce tree on May 20, 2013. Now I don't remember who defined it (probably myself and incorrectly), but I have signed it as Lasius (Dendrolasius) fuliginosus (Formicidae).
