The butterfly is cool. It's a pity-fat. Put the butterfly in lighter oil for three days, it will be generally chic

I would like to present to your attention a gallery of Cerura crested whales, often mistakenly (and habitually) called harpies.
There will be a lot of photos, PLEASE DO NOT BREAK THE SELECTION!

The genus Cerura is mainly distributed almost throughout the Palearctic, partly in South and Southeast Asia. Conventionally, the genus can be divided into two groups - vinula and erminea. According to recent work on the Palearctic, the genus has at least 15 species, which are difficult to distinguish from each other in appearance and are divided by geographical features and genitals.

Cerura vinula Linnaeus, 1758
is the most popular member of the genus. Several subspecies from Britain to Western Siberia, from north to south from Lapland to Western Asia.
Nominative subspecies in most of Europe and SW of the European part. In Lapland, very dark butterflies of the subspecies phantoma fly.

Cerura vinula estonica Hoynihgen-Huene, 1905
Fennoscandia, ECR, Ural and West Siberia. In the Altai and Western Siberia. It differs from the nominative to some extent by its semi-transparent front wings.
male and female from MO, Chigasovo and Poryadino (Odintsovo and Naro-Fominsk districts) leg. Morozzz

Cerura iberica (Templado & Ortitz, 1966)
male, Spain.
Replaces vinula on the Pyrenean Peninsula, flying with her sympatrically on the border of France and Spain. In some works it is listed as a subspecies of vinula.

Cerura erminea erminea (Esper, 1783)

Distribution of this subspecies is temperate Europe to the South. The Urals.
the main distinguishing feature from vinula and others is a black belly with a white tip.

I have long wanted to show anyone interested in this topic the distinctive features of two very similar species flying in the Far East.
Hagapteryx admirabilis (Staudinger, 1887) and Hagapteryx mirabilior (Oberthur, 1911)
Both species are found in the south of Primorye, flying at the same time. In addition to Russia, they are also available in Korea, China, and Japan. The range of H. mirabilior is much wider - it reaches Vietnam and the Himalayas.

How do you distinguish them?
If you look closely, you will notice that admirabilis has a wider front wing, its outer edge is not so jagged and slightly rounded. The general background is cherry-chocolate. White spots near the costal margin. The "teeth" of the dorsal margin are shorter. The rear wing is wider and rounded with a slightly pronounced sash.

In mirabilior, the forewing is more elongated, the outer edge is more pronounced jagged. The overall background is rusty brown. At the costal edge there are yellowish spots. The "teeth" of the dorsal margin are longer. The rear wing has an almost triangular shape, the sling on it is more pronounced.

The most important distinguishing feature is the structure of the antennas. In admirabilis, they are thicker and longer "feathered".

I got a little confused about the possible number of generations per year in some species of relatively common crested whales. Do I correctly believe that in the central part of Russia (in Moscow,Ivanovo, and other nearby regions) in the AVERAGE weather conditions of the year (not abnormally hot, as this year was, or not abnormally cold) The species Peridea anceps, Leucodonta bicoloria, Furcula bicuspis, F. bifida. F. furcula,and Ptilodon capucina develop one generation per year,while the species Notodonta tritophus,Pheosia tremula,Clostera anastomosis,and Gluphisia crenata develop two generations?Further.Which of our species of tufts (not only from the above,but in general) in warm years can give the second/third supersymmetric generations?Help me figure it out.
