Ele, yes you have a house (balcony) - just like a trap! And zlatki, and sawyere, and something like bronzes (previously, I think, published photos)...


It won't be enough.© shuffle.gifI would like someone to get knocked up more often.

Do I understand correctly that this beetle is called a barbel? smile.gif

Right. yes.gif Although the name is very general, a group name: this is a whole large family - barbels (Cerambycidae). As for the sight of your Australian ones, I'll pass.

They talked about traps ,but it seems they didn't finish a little. You can take cheap canned food-gobies in tomato sauce or the like and from there part of the goby or any tulki in the trap let rot.Maybe dead eaters or gravediggers will arrive, maybe there will be more animals in December. Thank you for your self-authorized work

Yeah, I see! Thank you. smile.gif

I can listen endlessly about traps right now. I've already tortured everyone around me. lol.gif I continue to read and look at pictures of structures, in a week I will have more or less free time, I will try to make something more simple than cups.

Yes, two and a half days in the bush - traps with vinegar and honey and plates catch all the same ants.

In the caves (which are cool cave) found only spiders, cobwebs and a couple of dragonflies. That's all, there are no beetles there, although I maniacally climbed all the nooks and crannies and turned everything that turns over. By the way, I didn't find any bats either.

Photos of spiders and webs will be available later.

I also found a ruined (collapsed) nest of wild bees with combs on the rocks and a lot of termite mounds Marribanggag (rock termites). The termites themselves, however, could not be seen, they are nocturnal insects.

Alas, we have to admit that there really aren't many beetles. Complicating the glasses probably won't work. At dusk go out into the bush near the house and listen maybe large barbels will fly with a buzzing sound maybe those that came out of ficusa

I admire Ele! We tortured her with our advice. Give us the beetles, you see... mad.gif

Yes, I would serve beetles - with a dear soul! If there were any. smile.gif But don't stop giving me advice, I need it for inspiration. shuffle.gif

Marribanggag (rock termites). I can't find out what they are called in Latin and Russian, I only know the local name. These termites build a variety of termite mounds, live at night, and feed on the local spiny grass (spinifex).

This one looks like a real termite patch, but I've only ever seen one like it.

Droshky cars that run in all directions from the termite patch.

Another construction option is when the termite pit is "smeared" on the rock. And there are a lot of them on the rocks there.

Thanks for the photo!
Have you tried picking the path?

Thanks for the photo!


You are welcome. smile.gif Then there will be more, I didn't sort out all the folders from the trip.

In the rock crevices found a lot of huge cobwebs.

An incomprehensible blob from which, as I understand it, someone has already hatched.

And this one, high up on the cliff, is the biggest I've ever seen. Just huge, 5 meters or more across.

But this is a small formation, a little more than a palm, but I think it's also Marribanggag.

Incomprehensible blooms, in my humble opinion, are more like the nests of some kind of eardrums. Experts will tell you more precisely.

Google showed me some flies with antennae. I think I saw something similar in the rocks. smile.gif

Thank you, I signed the title to the pictures. smile.gif

Thank you for your dedication. smile.gif
And for the fact that we can see, even with your eyes, a distant Australia. rolleyes.gif

Here's the third post from the top.

http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/sear...u&client=safari

4th post (next) - with definitions: "...Halictus (Seladonia) tumulorum and Astata boops". The first is from single bees, the second is from burrowing wasps-sphecids. Yes, the nests are clearly not fly nests. wink.gif shuffle.gif
It would be interesting to see the owners of the nests... rolleyes.gif

In dragonflies, to put it mildly, not strong. But, I think, something close to the genus Aeshna confused.gif...

In the topic "Definition of dragonflies", it is possible to determine. Elena M identified" overseas " dragonflies from India and from somewhere else. Maybe he'll look at this one, too. In dragonflies, it is also useful to take photos of the caudal appendages (the lower part of the body).

Of course, I'm a long way from Elena, however... judging by the huge eyes and general appearance, it looks like some kind of Gynacantha. I strongly suspect that Gynacantha nurlangie is the English name "cave duskhawker" ... wink.gifThey write that it lives in cave reservoirs!

Wow, it turns out it's possible and true-a cave dragonfly! I thought the most ordinary one was just hiding in a cave from the heat.

Gynacantha nurlangie - 60 km from this cave where I shot the dragonfly, there are Nurlangie Rock

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nourlangie_Rock

It looks like the name is related to this place.

I'm sorry, but such a big-eyed CAVE beast is nonsense. Another thing is that many animals climb into caves, often going very far from the entrance. This is unlikely to apply to the dragonfly.

Here the word "cave" is not exactly what is usually understood by it. In ordinary caves - deep and dark - aborigines, and with them whites, are forbidden by law to descend (unwritten laws, of course, but still smile.gif). There is a special term that distinguishes the present cave from the "normal cave" - cool cave, that is, a cool cave. They are shallow and must be ventilated, there are many holes in the walls and it is shady, but not dark. It is dark only in the "pockets", in the recesses. Now I'll show you the pictures to make it clear.
