Already understood I do not like these liktids. They look better than they actually are.

The most fun thing is when the beetles break up and mate. Sorry, I couldn't get a picture of Rhynocyllus conicus c Lixus filiformis. But here is one of the variations of the position "Tiriam" performed by the pair Anatolica impressa

And here is a photo of how different species of pigeons do this Here is a typical male Polyommatus icarus mating with a typical female P. tsvetajevi Photo taken in June last year in an alfalfa meadow on the floodplain terrace of the Amur River near Khabarovsk. Both of these species fly there together and en masse. And sometimes there are individuals that are intermediate in color between ikarus and tsvetaevi. Probably hybrids. Additional research is needed to accurately establish this fact. And I often see there when opposite individuals of different species are courting each other

An interesting topic, but what is it here that you have only beetles and butterflies?

Nabis limbatus, if I'm not mistaken.


There are also beetles in the assortment







well, the elephants + who joined them are out of competition!

It is very rare to see a copulating shovel. They don't fly into the light, but go find them in the dark...
