Coleoptera

Now it's time for me to unsubscribe.. The package reached me.
Almost all the material is broken. Only Grantie and Avinovi remained "alive". "Damaster", or rather some kind of morphocarabus, for example - there are almost no limbs, and certainly no whole ones.. loshnikova is not very broken - only a couple of pieces of legs, Lamprim without 2 pieces of medium legs-apparently suffered even before sending
"Avinovi" turned out to be a Hygrocarabus. I suspect that there is a slyness in the labels. Is there a Hygrocarabus on Sakhalin?? Please tell us - it's interesting to know.. Suddenly some interesting species, although I suspect varicose veins.. It's just that he's the 2nd one who's not broken at all, but I have a variolosus.. horror

By the way it's packed exactly the same as Dan's
Unless I don't have a quirk cake, just some waffle tubes

Yeah... I would have swallowed my tongue in indignation. probably.

No, I don't know why.. you will also need the language

Hm...
I have my suspicions that the "Archiplectes starckianus" from my parcel is actually C. prometheus

starkianus has a strongly concave pronotum, 2-3 furrows between neat small grains (1 stands out more, others are smaller), prometheus has 1 line, coarse grains, the pronotum is either slightly concave or straight.. I looked at the photos, I advise you to do the same to make sure that they are not difficult to compare.. Well, the dimensions, respectively, should seem to differ, although not much.

Well, guys, analyzing the material from S. Pushkin, you become experts in the genus karabus.

I agree, dear colleagues, we should not turn the forum into an inquisition. I believe that there should be correctness in everything, including in discussing the actions of any person. It is clear that you should not take the material from him, but dig into his biography, raise the abstract, raise speculation to the rank of a paradigm... This is too much!

the author of the message clearly did not receive material from Pushkin and did not deal with him. I can imagine the feelings of entomologists who opened the long-awaited packages and studied their contents! I didn't have anything to do with this friend myself, but a friend tried to change. But I could have thrown information at the time, but I was too lazy, and I didn't want to scold someone ahead of time...

I wrote him a letter asking him to repair the damage with new beetles. He went to the meeting and promised to send new beetles, packing them well so that none of them would get hurt. I hope for the best. Maybe everything will change, well, let's see.
