user posted imageOxythyrea funesta is a small (8.5-13 mm) black beetle of the Lamellidae family, a pest of many agricultural crops. It is widespread everywhere in the forest-steppe and steppe zone and in the Caucasus. Beetles fly out in early spring, greatly harm agriculture, eating the flowers of fruit trees, ornamental plants, etc. Eggs are laid in the soil in areas rich in humus. Larvae feed on dead roots and humus, do not cause harm. Adult beetles spend the winter burrowing into the soil.
The picture was taken in the Astrakhan region.

This year, in the Volokolamsk district of the Moscow region, there were a lot of shaggy bronzes. Well, very much. This refers to the surroundings of the village of Teryaevo.

Duc, and in the Volokolamsk district, most likely, a stinker, and not a furry one.

17.10.2008 15:00, Dmitry Vlasov

Definitely.....

18.10.2008 12:26, Гость Кундуз

I agree with you. Not shaggy. I was wrong, I overreacted. Care is not enough.

These stinkers are already flying around St. Petersburg with might and main!

Somehow, in Russia, Oxythyrea funesta is strictly called a smelly bronzer... frown.gif
The Germans call her Trauer-Rosenkäfer. Yes, and in other languages they are more often called gloomy bronze, etc. frown.gif
And my Czech entomologist colleague wrote to me that they had this species under protection, only recently its population began to increase. So it's not such a simple, smelly bronze thing. smile.gif

Why Oxythyrea funesta is called "smelly" in Russian literature is not clear to me. The Latin species name means, in my opinion (please correct me if anyone knows better), "mourning", which is logical with its black color.
I didn't smell much from this beetle.

amara, you are right, in Latin funestus [a, um] - mourning, tragic.

11.04.2010 20:30, Kemist

Catch a few of these bronzes, hold them alive for a couple of hours in a small vessel, and it will become clear why it is so called

11.04.2010 22:46, Morfey

Kemist, if you hold other types of bronzes in a small pot for a couple of hours,it will be surprising that they were not called smelly. The same Cetonia aurata can smell like this, horror... Remember how your hands smell if you hold it longer... The smell is still the same, however, called golden. smile.gif

By the way, here in this book: B. M. Mamaev, L. N. Medvedev, F. N. Pravdin " Determinant of insects of the European part of the USSR "(Moscow, Prosveshchenie 1976) this species (O. funesta) is named Ryabaya Olenka (which I personally consider the most correct).

Actually, this determinant is worth referring to.
I have always used "ryabaya olenka"in my publications regarding this species.

On 21.05.2015, I met Oxythyrea funesta in my yard. This gave me great joy, because, firstly, I had never seen it before, and secondly, it is mainly distributed in Southern Europe, and its range only recently began to expand northward, reaching the south of the northern regions of Ukraine. The Cherkasy region lies just to the south of this line, so the discovery of O. funesta here was a great discovery for me.

Vasily, in the Moscow, Vladimir, etc. regions of Russia (much north and east of the Cherkasy region) it is already 20 years old (if not more) the most common, massive and ubiquitous beetle. It is even strange why it is so rare in your confused.gifcountry Do not believe these fairy tales about Southern Europe wink.gif

Thanks! I'll know. But it's really rare, and I don't even know why. confused.gif It may have been in the Cherkasy region for quite a long time, but in small quantities and, it seems, only in the coming years will it become a mass species.

Don't believe these tales of Southern Europe

Southern Europe has its own Oxytherae. wink.gif

23.05.2015 22:11, Лавр Большаков

O. funesta has been spreading throughout the Tula region since 1990, and in 1993 it became almost ubiquitous there and was recorded in the adjacent regions of the Moscow and Kaluga regions. These facts are published-see " Biodiversity of the Tula region...", issue 2, 2002.
Now it is ubiquitous in the Kaluga region, but I don't know exactly about the Moscow region.

In 1996, I personally collected the first ones in Obiralovka. I don't know: it's quite possible that it was there before. At that time, there were no special Internets of any kind smile.gif

In the extreme south of the Moscow Region on the border with the Tula region. It was already present in 93. Then, in the book of Nikitsky et al. (1996) on PTZ, it was also mentioned for the south of the Moscow Region. It seems that northward settlement has not been recorded in the literature yet?

In St. Petersburg, it has been one of the most common beetle species for at least several years.
