Still Cool! The photos are absolutely mesmerizing! Brahmei, scoops cool.... Eh, Agapantii!!!!!

Not, Nemophora sp. the coolest ~

Cajarc Well, Thank God, flew, and then I chegoy something, already zaperezhival. Didn't the engine fail on your flight?

The engine failed on my plane, which was flying back to Vladik. On my flight, it was all "chicky peaks".

Cajarc, can you make another theme - BORNEO?! You will delight people with photos and stories. You and Frozz are looking at it, and others will go to the tropics. As you correctly said-stop going for myrmidons in neighboring areas, it's time to hunt like an adult!!!

And more photos from Primorye!! It's so nice to look at such photos!

There will be photos, but there is no time right now.

Well, now the " sad " story about Sphecodina caudata:
I've never caught a butterfly myself, so since the weather wasn't very good, and there wasn't much to do during the day, I looked for caterpillars. And, naturally, I tried to find the caterpillar from this butterfly first. Photo 5 shows a birch tree entwined with gus grapes. they sit quite high, singly, in bright and warm places. As I understand it, the butterfly does not shy away from the thickets, but tends to paths along the edges of which grapes grow, but, again, lays eggs not from below in the thickets, where it is wet and dark, but always at the top. These are my personal observations.
The caterpillar changes color from green to brown before pupation, but in both forms it is very beautiful.
I found only three tracks, which, to be honest, I was very happy about, having spent a lot of time searching for them. To say that I "hated" grapes is an understatement.
The story has not ended quite sadly yet - from 2 caterpillars, fly larvae were hatched, according to puparia, apparently, tachins. In photo 10 on gus. black dots are visible-spots, most likely, these are the traces of larval penetration.
And the latter is still in the pronimfa state. Maybe you'll be lucky enough to get a pupa.
That's the story .....

And this is the caterpillar Acosmeryx naga naga. I didn't look for it on purpose - it caught my eye.Actinidia was eaten, which the locals call "kish-mish", and fruits are collected in autumn.
Gus. and gave the name of the butterfly, like a hawk moth-cobra, as can be seen in the photo.
Before pupation, it changes color to brown-crimson. Safely pupated, I'll take a picture and add a photo.

the " sad " story of Sphecodina caudata:

My condolences... For the sake of information: I saw and filmed such caterpillars at the biostation of the Institute of the Sea near Nakhodna (15 km south of Dushkino). There were quite a few of them there. I didn't look for it on purpose, but I kept coming across it in a gazebo surrounded by grapes.

Here are some more photos, mostly taken at night by the screen.
Bramea didn't want to "spread out" for a long time, I had to poke (it didn't hurt!..) hit it with your finger.
Artemis - male and female (on hand). Her ponytails are shorter.
There were a lot of sailors, but everyone had already "lived" well.

Sincerely, cajarc

Thank you, Cajarc, for the heartwarming photos.

Here are photos of Cerura erminea candida, which I found in the afternoon, and she began to pretend, sorry, "bird poop". I didn't wait for her to get tired of it, so she flew into the bushes .... in the form of poop.
The following photos of a female of the same Cerura erminea candida at night at the screen, and the screen itself.

And ground beetle #2, I believe, is hummeli

Yes, the second zhuzha 100% hummeli

Yeah, that's the beauty of it!!!!!

Tapeworms, perelivnitsy and pestrushki.
I understand that these were already remnants of the former luxury ....

Just no words

Yeah, nice shots. I'm feeling nostalgic. I've never seen Yankovsky's karabus...
Some minor changes to the captions of daytime butterflies:
Pestles are clearly N. thisbe.
Shashechnitsa-definitely not suchana, probably a female M. phoebe, if Sikhote-Alin (if west of Ussuriysk, probably M. scotosia)
Melanargy-both M. epimede
Sincerely,

Thank you, I made a mistake with the checker, it's a shame. And melenargy is all the same to me. It is strange that the butterfly with closed wings was correctly identified.

And this is Dymbovsky's horn.... that's how formidable he is.
