Excellent representative of the post-Soviet space
Acosmeryx naga hissarica
Uzbekistan, Zap. Hissar Gorge. Sangardak
05.05.2003.


This photo, if I'm not mistaken, shows the cobra hawk moth for the first time for Uzbekistan, although it is logical that it inhabits the entire Hissar, and not just the vicinity of Dushanbe ))) A nominative subspecies of it began to be collected not so long ago in the Far East. Very nice find.

Excuse me and you do not know what hawkmoth is found on the territory of the Leningrad region?tell me the Russian names(if any). wall.gif

12.11.2010 13:01, Grigory Grigoryev

lilac-pine-eye - poplar-bedstraw - small and medium wine-lime-bumblebee scabiose and honeysuckle.

Something with Russian names is a bit heavy, better look at the first pages of this topic.

I can't find out the size of the caterpillar of the lilac hawk moth(Sphinx ligustri).Please tell me!!!!

I was thinking that some of my hawk moth caterpillars immediately pupated after finding them because I found them not on food plants, but on a "walk".From this I understood that," on a walk - to pupation!!!!! "

What you call a walk is actually finding a suitable place to pupate after a period of fattening up on forage plants.

Help me identify a handsome man:
[attachmentid ()=29637]
Southern Baikal, Slyudyanka!!! June.
The pattern resembles Callambulyx tatarinovi, but in color... Does this happen?

This is a female, in Transbaikalia all females are brown, and males are green.
Exactly Mica? They were not found outside the Selenga srednegorye (there are no elms to the west).

According to the above methods of determination (bending of the white stripe), I conclude that this is Chuvilin's hawk moth... Am I right?

Dmitry, when did you catch hawk moth Hyles hippophaeas in your region? As I understand it, the female received eggs and caterpillars from them were fed on sea buckthorn? Or another plant?
The fact is that I have already been told twice that hawk moth caterpillars were found on sea buckthorn (the one that grows in suburban areas) - clearly Hyles hippophaeas !?? But I myself did not catch this species in the region, and I do not know if it exists in the Volga region.

The plant in the photo, something painful on the loch silvery looks like, probably not sea buckthorn. In Ukraine, Hyles hippophaeas goes exclusively to loch landings.

13.09.2011 21:09, Dmitry.F

Oleg-it was a little bit the other way around. Photos are all in chronological order-near Sol-Iletsk I found eggs on a narrow-leaved loch, then a caterpillar, a pupa and the last photo is actually just a hatched butterfly.
Upon arrival home, I tried to feed the caterpillar with sea buckthorn, but she refused to cut it. Fortunately, there are no problems with a sucker in our area - I fed them.
I found the eggs in mid-June, when the butterflies were born.
In the Volga region, the species is definitely present, there are at least two articles on this topic
1) Anikin V. V., Sachkov S. A., Zolotuhin V. V. "Fauna lepidopterologica Volgo-Uralensis" 150 years later: changes and additions. Part 2. Bombyces and Sphinges. / / Atalanta. 2000. B. 31. Heft. S. 265-292
2) Anikin V. V. On the distribution of sea buckthorn hawkmoth-Hyles hippophaes (Esper, 1973) (Lepidoptera, Sphingidae) in the Lower Volga region // Entomological and parasitological studies in the Volga region. - Saratov, 2004. p. 40-41.

Well, now in print my article "On the spread of HAWK MOTH in the URAL-CASPIAN REGION (LEPIDOPTERA, SPHINGIDAE)" as soon as published, I will post here pdf-ku

Yes, by the way, maybe the forum members do not know, there is an interesting brochure by A. N. Poltavsky (2004). Brazhniki of the Rostov region and the south of Russia. Rostov-on-Don. Ed. -2 per. 55 p.
As far as I know, he was working on a new version of this very useful publication.

One of the signs: L. populi has an orange spot at the base of the hindwing, while L. amurensis does not.

Populi have ochreous spots on the lower wings, on the upper side, in the basal part.
In amurensis, there are no ochreous basal spots on the lower wings on the upper side.
If you are interested in how to distinguish them from the bottom side. smile.gif, then this is somewhat more complicated. One of the signs, in my opinion, is the outer edge of the lower wings. In poplar, it is more or less evenly wavy, in aspen, the two upper veins protrude forward. It's hard to put it into words. smile.gif

Aspen still, as a rule (but not always), has a very beautiful blue tint, which poplar does not have.
