Non-standard insects!

1. komar-hexatoma ussuriiskaya, sem. Lemoniidae (not a weevil!): a huge monster related to the smaller Amazon mosquitoes. (June 2002); there are isolated finds in Russia
2. what squad??? (even so): South China (there is also Borneo, even Massow). I assume such a diptera is equidistant?
3. what family of beetles? (Greece, 2007 - one young entomologist caught)
4. small beetle (Turkmenistan, Ipay-Kala, May 1987) - I understand, it is not very clear in the photo.

What are the antennae and legs (number of segments) of a beetle from Greece?

Here is a small moth (MO). Clearly not eupithecia, but no one (not even kotbegemot) has yet identified it!

isn't it Scopula rubiginata?

Specifically, Scopula rubiginata.

yes, this is it (somewhat flown, etc.); I have an ex-r, where the front and back wings are different colors.

"What are the antennae and legs (number of segments) of a beetle from Greece?" – that's all I have-this frame.

Let's be more active with beetles...

here is another example of an equal-winged bird (Primorye, very rare) - sometimes they look very strange

Is this a cicada from Primorye??? I'm shocked

Yes, I was also shocked when I saw Kolda :-). There is also another "mutant", both identified (one - only a few copies, the other-for the first time for Primorye (from China...); I will find a disk with photos (there is a close-up: the antennae are original, the genitals are revealed monstrically), post and sign.

Yes horseradish, sobsno.... Well, yes, in the blue band are not found, and in Japan there are already many different ones... Derbidae, maybe Zoraida pterophoroides

I've already posted something similar in the "What is it?"section. (p13)
http://molbiol.ru/forums/uploads/post-22026-1189872078.jpg
without much success. And in Southeast Asia, these insects are very abundant!

I wrote to him that I thought it was a male from the family of giant worms
- Margarodidae. In the description of families in Borchsenius - only in males
of this family . not many glands (protruding fingers) on the penultimate segment. The
rest have a couple (often) or none.
And he didn't learn anything, and then he answered-like nafig this belated answer....

Cosmos, yes, this is Zoraida, only Z. horishane Wats.
Regarding the worm: bravo, I assumed so (I don't know anything like this, but I knew that it should be something close to ours, but it's different...).

And in general, of course, you should not react like this... (you never know: forgot, missed, etc.), in order to have a forum (too), to learn and communicate, and... love, unity - in the end, this is more important than the truths of entomology : -) (the goals of our incarnations)

is there a humor section here or "a bad head doesn't give your hands any peace"?
in general, this is spam. but the insect is really unusual.

The result of entomobluda of his ancestors...: -)
fancy, but neat, soundly!

  
3. what family of beetles? (Greece, 2007 - one young entomologist caught)

Most likely, it is a female of some Rhipiceridae. For Greece, Arrhaphipterus olivetorum is indicated, and this may be it.

Another option: Arrhaphipterus vanderwolfi Wurst, 1999.

Here is such a larva caught recently after returning from shooting, in one of the puddles on the road. Right for a horror movie.Chelyabinsk. End of July 2008

Yopt, what is this?

the larva of a water lover eats something))

Well, shit to myself! Bravo! Although it looks like Photoshop... Well, if it eats-apparently, someone's endophallus ))
It seems that this can be done as a separate topic - there is also something there...

And what did it grow on the sides? Imho, not a water lover.

Imho, water lover, Hydrophilus caraboides.

Here is such a larva caught recently after returning from shooting, in one of the puddles on the road. Right for a horror movie.Chelyabinsk. The end of July 2008
, the larva of the Water-lover stuck food out of the water and eats.Since her esophagus is external in the water, she can not do this.He catches someone, puts his head out of the water, and swallows it.And on the sides of its body it has gills like fir branches.

Oh, I didn't think about H. caraboides, I'm sorry.

Not guys... no photoshop required.What this larva eats just resembles a human head... and that's why it's creepy...

figase larva size

Also, in my opinion, a rather unusual beetle - Atractocerus (so far sp.) from Vietnam (family Lymexylonidae).

Atractocerus (5 sp.) from Vietnam (family Lymexylonidae).

Sp. do you mean unknown or undescribed?

probably in the sense of a strange shape and appearance..

Sp. do you mean unknown or undescribed?

Yes, who knows - it's me in the hope that I will determine

Is it his jaws or his tentacles?

Mustache, I think.

Yes, it's his mustache. And the tentacles are not visible, but there is generally a PPC that is happening.

Cool bug!

here I found such a "non-standard" insect on a well-known site

On the photo I see a habitus ant Dendrolasius fuliginosus or Camponotus
And the insect under it is most likely from the Polyneoptera group Rhynchota, although it extremely resembles something akin to termites)) Or a larva
, I can't be more precise yet. Where and when was it taken?

Vladimir Nerush wrote
Take a look, if you don't mind, at the next photo - you can see better there.

It was shot on September 20 of this year in the Nizhny Novgorod region. I was very interested in an unusual animal with a huge trunk. It crawls slowly, it is not touched by ants, although the insect is completely helpless - it was able to roll over on its stomach after falling on its back in about 15 minutes. Yes, it was crawling up the birch tree. That's all I know about him. =)

Okay, here's what I found out (all speculation):
1) The creature belongs to Diaspididae (Homoptera, Coccoidea)
2) it is an egg-bearing female, while the larva is a vagrant
3) such a proboscis is used to penetrate the vascular system of the petiole, stem, branch
4) the female winters on the surface of the branch, where she stuck
5) the phenomenon of this creature on September 20 is apparently explained by the warm and late autumn of this year (4th generation)
For the kit, it is desirable to take a photo of the entire surrounding biotope, as well as study the branches of the tree for suckling females (in winter, they are observed as small dark scales or warts on the surface of thin branches)

Vladimir Nerush wrote
Small ones? It is not small at all - 7 millimeters. By the way, I can post a photo of that place. I also wonder how it unfolds its trunk.
But in any case, thank you-now I'll Google about these diaspidids.
...
I looked at the pictures and descriptions of these diaspidids - something doesn't look very similar. Yes, and they seem to be small, 2 millimeters. Horseradish knows, maybe really, what kind of larva. But I definitely haven't seen such a trunk in anyone else.

Dmitry Klemin wrote
These proboscises are not often seen. Well, let's say giganstkih iceria (reddish-brown, 5-7 mm long California worm) when moving, it is four times rolled up or dangles behind the body, in your photo the proboscis looks more like a non-invertible stiletto or egg-laying, but this is of course a proboscis, just a rare form...
....
Try creating a blog in the forum for detecting insects on the server molbiol.ru. They like to comment on such photos there. You can even collect decent material for scientific work))

I've never seen anything like it. A very interesting animal. It reminds me personally of a bedbug.

I think it's an aphid. So the ants don't touch it. And, indeed, probably a female.

What happened to this butterfly?

The picture was taken in April last year in Slovenia, Kamnik Alps.
