Can you tell me how to distinguish the caterpillar of the Ocular hawk moth from the Poplar moth?What and where do Poplar hawkmoth prefer for lunch?

They are very similar.At certain stages, the ages are almost indistinguishable.The caterpillar of the poplar feeds on poplar, willow, aspen, less often-apple, eye-shaped on willow, poplar, aspen, rarely-on apple, pear. As you can see, the forage plants match. It is necessary to feed,hatch and see then whose caterpillar is already.

I tried to identify the pupa (Kharkiv, June) and came to a dead end. There don't seem to be any such places during the day, but Copenhagen isn't enough at night. Help. Interesting...

This is a nymphalid pupa. For me, so Neptis rivularis.

Like scoops of Antitype chi


Ehh, nope not her, although it looks like it. Or maybe it's a caterpillar of the Autographa gamma Metalloid (Linnaeus, 1758)?

Please tell me what kind of caterpillar is this? Found today in the Kharkiv region.

I also wonder how long it is before pupation and whether there is a chance to grow at home?

Does it look like a hawk moth, only Cheto's horns are invisible?Put it in a jar on the sand and cover with cotton wool, it should pupate.lessa like summer, maybe a couple of weeks will be enough for the butterfly to come out.

Yes, that's how it's not euphorbiae!That's why I'm asking.In that case, the caterpillars are blackish with red.(seen it)And this is someone else!

Good day to all! I also want to ask you whose caterpillar it is. shuffle.gif I didn't find something in the atlas. Caught in the Crimea, size about 2-2. 5 cm, diameter about 1 cm. When pressed with a finger, it sticks out orange horns and a characteristic smell of bitter almonds appears. Apparently, the defense is like this.

Yes, he himself thought that it looked like a hawk moth, but there were no horns-this was why he was baffled.
I put it in a jar with leaves - for the first night-my threads fastened two lime leaves, and between them myself. It has been in this condition for 4 days.
Is this even normal for her?

There was a question about the humidity conditions in cans with a caterpillar, what should it be? .
Just in case, slkchay put a lid with water in the jar - to maintain humidity, so to speak

In general I look like this it reminds me very much of a caterpillar

Red peacock's eye or Red Night peacock's eye-Aglia tau L. Peacock Eyes Family-Saturniidae

17.07.2008 7:24, Raptor

In princep, you can agree, of course, I never met a red peacock-eye, but somehow in all respects it is very suitable.Here you probably need to take into account how and where the caterpillar was found.Probably there should be birches side by side?but the cocoon, as I think, should be more complicated....But in any case, now we can only wait.about humidity bohego knows, lizhby neusokhla.

Hyles euphorbiae это.

17.07.2008 8:13, DYNASTES

It was found in a broad-leaved forest - oak, but with an admixture of other deciduous trees. The caterpillar itself was taken from the ants that were dragging it. Near this place there are no birches-oaks, there are wild pears, linden, hazel.

Read it, it is written that they live on beech, birch, oak, alder and other deciduous trees. It also seems to fit.

17.07.2008 8:25, DYNASTES

Yes, that's how it's not euphorbiae!That's why I'm asking.In that case, the caterpillars are blackish with red.(seen it)And this is someone else!


And can it be just a variation in color, depending on the living conditions of the caterpillar ?

Because it really is very similar to euphorbiae

here for example is a photo of his own caterpillar c butterflies-moths.com -completely green without a reddish tinge

Milkweed moth caterpillars are very variable in color. Another thing is that in Kazakhstan there may be something else similar, not only euphorbia. If there was a caterpillar from the European part, then definitely euphorbia.

1-I would venture to assume that Calliteara pudibunda.
2-some kind of nymphalid, M. b. Nymphalis sp..

Yes, it doesn't look like pudibunda at all... Although definitely some kind of excitement.

during the first night , I tied two lime leaves together with my own threads, and myself between them. It has been in this condition for 4 days.
Is this even normal for her?

This is normal.

At the expense of the lid with water-I think it will not hurt.

Caterpillar scoops from the subfamily Noctuinae. More precisely, I think it is not possible to determine.
I can't say anything about the moth.

Carcharodus alceae. Only on the eyes it could hardly be caught, because it lives among the leaves glued together by cobwebs. umnik.gif Next time please report the circumstances of the discovery wink.gif

Maybe someone disturbed it or lost it -)? I found it on the top side of the sheet, where it was captured. That is, there was no effort on my part to extract it from somewhere!

And who will emerge from it? Lives in my yard on Pupavka krasilnaya (Anthemis tinctoria). The second frame was already in the fishing reports, but it's too funny smile.gif

21.07.2008 23:39, Zhuk

Scoops of some kind. From Cuculia?

And who will emerge from it? Lives in my yard on Pupavka krasilnaya (Anthemis tinctoria). The second frame was already in the fishing reports, but it was too funny smile.gif

It is very likely that this is Cucullia (Shargacucullia) sp. -- of which only C. (Sh.) lychnitis is known in the Ryazan region, and C. (Sh.) verbasci and C. (Sh.) scrophulariae are also recorded in the region.

Is it really this yellow?

The forage plant is not very important here, except as an interesting fact: they all develop on norichnikovs, but sometimes they also eat plants of other families (I fed S. (Sh.) verbasci buddleia last year).

I wish you success in breeding, I wonder who it will be...

22.07.2008 1:41, okoem

It is very similar to Cucullia (Shargacucullia) sp.

I think that this is not Shargacucullia, they do not choose asteroids of their own free will. This is either a non-standard colored Cucullia tanaceti (it just feeds on Anthemis), or some similar species.

The color is NOT distorted, as you can see by the color of the flower (navel). But with the removal-more difficult, I only go there on weekends, and even then not every day... So, the caterpillar lives in the wild and there is a very high chance of its death or that it will hide during pupation...
