Photos of collections

Ilyukha well, finally, at least look at your super
I also took a photo, if all the elephants were the size of bronzes
Here is a small part of my elephant collection

Wow! pretty cool
and what are the red chlorophanuses (3 pieces)?
and where do the barinotuses in trachyfloenini come from? they are also in geonemini

And I also have blackbirds (Tenebrionidae).
True, I don't collect them anymore, and there are mostly old fees here.
By the way, almost all Blaps are undefined.

the good villagers will soon start blowing up their money, shouting drunkenly and not so loudly.Happy children will find iPhones under Christmas trees and not happy ones will continue to freeze in snowdrifts.The president will say something about a difficult year and another 3.14 zdets in the country.
In general, happy new year colleagues.
And here I am Junius piled.

in my opinion, this is his Canadian balsam

Why are there so many tendrils at the bottom? did they drop boxes or something?

Nope, this is from the old stuff, I've already removed them from here

Start of the collection. Maybe something will work out.

It will definitely work!

and what is the strange way-to prick the dies from both sides? what's the point?

Of course, this is all a matter of taste, now very few people pierce beetles. But, hefty dies with large beetles will certainly spin in the box "like a propeller". If not immediately, then eventually. And so people start to "sculpt little towns" - they pin the die with additional pins from all sides. Your method is even more elaborate. And what prevents you from sticking a large beetle on a small die and piercing it with a pin next to it on the side? Imho, it is better to prick the beetle itself than to sculpt a palisade in a box.

Scoops from the Republic of Tatarstan.
If you notice an error in the definition, please let us know.

You don't have Euroctis chrysorrhoea Linnaeus, 1758 in the box with volnyanki. Only one view is present there: Euproctis (Sphrageidus) similis Fuessly, 1775.

But I am sure that in any position of the box my dies will not spin like a propeller

It's a good idea, but since then, with further additions to the collection and as a result of rearranging the material, it will turn out to be muryzhny . It is better to fix the ploughs with needles No. 00.
So far, this is the most reliable way to prevent beetles from turning into legless and beardless mummies over time (scientific collection)

Usually, beetles turn into legless and beardless mummies when "crooked" handles climb into the box. Well, actually, accuracy and scrupulousness is generally an indicator of working with a collection of dry insects. It is clear that the die gives a certain result in the safety of insect limbs, but this is not a 100% guarantee. I have a collection of impaled beetles from 30 years ago in complete safety. But in one open box with barbels pasted on the dies, I "crooked" handle dropped tweezers. The dies did not help, there was sadness. I repeat - all this is more a matter of taste of the collector. Then it is necessary to adopt the experience of the Chinese-fill the insect with polymer or resin with a hardener and there will be happiness.

I had 2 similar episodes during 4 seasons of collecting-at the time of editing, the cat jumped on its knees and its front paws fell into a box with barbels,but it was not fatal and in a short time the damaged animals were restored.But the second time-I left a 40x30 box with tropical beetles on the floor in a standing position, went to smoke, and the same cat dropped it flat on the floor-these consequences have not yet been completely eliminated - and 2.5 years have passed.Much is not recoverable, the tips of whiskers and paws, - and every time watching and considering disabled people-I remember about my imprudence and treachery of my beloved cat.....

I would have drowned him in the toilet for that!

You can't drown that, damn model...

For what? such a handsome man who is drawn to the beautiful? Here you need to deal with those who allow him to freely go through the collections, but if the owner does not mind, then you do not need to drown anyone

Maxim M: It mattered to you.

My cat also jumped into the box with Central Asian wasps

The other day, my cat dropped a die with dried Madagascar junonias from the table.the material cannot be restored.sorry.but the fool himself.

No cat - no problem

No cat - no problem

...no wife, children, neighbors, cockroaches, cats, moles, hamsters, Azt parrots and leatherworms, vacuum cleaners and fans, sneezing and coughing..... there is only YOU in the "clean room" with your BUGS/BUTTERFLIES
but, since we are not completely isolated from the outside world, then the safety of our "jewels" depends on US, and if someone or something has ruined it, it is only because WE allowed it to be done! you need to stay ahead of dark events doors-closed, cabinets-closed, boxes-closed, shelves-higher! a momentary weakening of the defense can turn into years of labor if at all recoverable! I know,... many people collected genitals from the carpet - and how? do you need it?! it is better to be "on the alert" always!
PS don't forget to keep an eye on the person who looks at you from the mirror! "he's a really bad guy

golden words! in this situation, you can only blame yourself

Without a cat-life is not the same!

P. S. Something we all offtopit izvolim.

Luchche, than Roma Ishin, probably already not write, vital and succinctly!!!!!

You can't drown that, damn model...

Smug face!Knows, I'll knock over a couple more boxes - I won't be left without whiskey!

doors are closed, cabinets are closed, boxes are closed...

...the cats are drowned!

You're wrong.New apartment made a type of office, on the loggia.There's always been a little bit of a mess over the last 10 months.So my cat is not bothered by the sacred-and those cases took place thanks to my carelessness and razdolbaystva.Photo attached[attachmentid ()=215852][attachmentid()=215853]

And after that, a few photos of the prepared material, which I gradually, slowly put in order.These aren't collections yet,but still...

I continue...

No cat - no problem

"this is not our method"

In a new apartment, I made myself a type of office, on the loggia.

Maxim, the loggia is heated?

And what kind of ants, they must be small, and these, where are they from!?

Maxim, the loggia is heated?

Made static insulation of the floor, cold walls and ceiling and removed the window opening, without installing additional radiators.Raisins-it is necessary to cover all cold walls with mirror film-foil without holes, and you will be warm.

Ants - from Praporamus the great.A place of capture - most likely-PERU OR ARGENTINA-I'll clarify a little later, and then after the congress, where I bought it, a little confusion about the material from the mattresses-after installation, the catcher will come to check the location....I changed and purchased quite a lot of material at the congress,mostly removing it from mattresses...
