The first post on this forum - if something is wrong, please do not judge strictly.
Photographed in Antananarivo (Madagascar).

This is a hawk moth - Cephonodes hylas subspecies virescens, the photo is excellent.
If you regularly post your photos of Madagascar butterflies here, then you can not remove the topic, but constantly replenish it. But you shouldn't create a theme just for one photo.

By definition, if you need: topics are located in a subforum "Classification of insects"
Defining butterflies
Identifying beetles
and so on for the rest of the units. Welcome! Get used to it. This is a good forum.

There are probably moderators here and they can move the photo to the desired topic. Isn't that right?

There are moderators, but they may not be able to transfer them in this case, since you didn't make a big violation. It's just that if you don't add photos to this topic, it will become dead.
Here is an example of a topic: Australia, Northern Territories. http://molbiol.ru/forums/index.php?showtopic=238127&st=1900
But maintaining it is entirely up to Elena, forum participants help identify insects and applaud the beautiful photos.

Unfortunately, I don't know the exact names. Therefore, I will be glad if you correct it.
Some kind of flower spider:

Spider-IMHO, some kind of oxiopida, spider-lynx.
Very characteristic stray spiders, loved by macaroons smile.gif

By the way, there should be at least two oenotomologists on the island right now from here-although they wanted to go to Masoala, I don't know if they did or not smile.gif

I doubt very much that they succeeded.
My job is exporting spices. So from Mananara and Maruancetra it is impossible to export products either by water (15 tons of cloves were recently drowned), or by land - there were 3 cyclones in the last month and there are no roads.

That is, if they flew to Marouancetra by plane, then most likely they are sitting there. Unless of course not quite "crazy"!

I have a small vegetable garden here.
On the most common Russian dill, a lot of all sorts of "reptiles" fly together.

Have you ever tried to catch them? shuffle.gif

05.03.2013 21:15, Mantispid

yes... In Madagascar, you need to catch faster, I heard that forests are being cut down there and soon all endemic beetles will die out =(

05.03.2013 21:29, adderley

I haven't even thought about it yet.

I think that I did not wander here in vain - I will read your forum and start catching it.

I always wondered why Nabokov used to catch butterflies while living in Montreux, where there are so many interesting things! Maybe it's time to understand?

Exactly. Forests are being cut down, grass is being burned...

Probably a bronzer from the large genus Pachnoda.
Try Googling: maybe you'll find it.

Something I think is from the Madagascar genus Euchroea
http://www.madagascar-library.com/images/7...ar-57-plate.jpg

05.03.2013 22:27, smax

Not at all. The animal is called Euryomia argentea (Ol.)
And pachnodes don't live in Madagascar, yes.

Dragonfly #4 - female Orthetrum sp. I can't say which species, but there are several options; you need to know the Madagascar representatives of the genus well... smile.gif

People, do not force a person to engage in fishing,in Madagascar it is fraught.

Yes, I've heard that a fellow Krasnoyarsk citizen (a fellow countryman, by the way) spent a couple of months in prison here because of butterflies. I don't want to offend him, but to get a WHITE MAN in jail in Madagascar, you have to be either very stupid or very greedy.

Not so scary here! You give the gendarme "three kopecks" and he will protect you every day. Yes, and wear things.

Tenebrionidae is the name of a family of blackbirds in Latin smile.gif
The genus is Macellocerus, the species is unknown, so "sp.", i.e.-species

Hell knows him confused.gif
Two other naturphotographers I know are hanging out there lol.gifright now , full house on the island lol.gif
I have no contact with them, unfortunately-they were supposed to fly to Maruancetra on March 1 and then get to Masoala. I don't know how or what happens next.
I hope to find out what was successful and what was not - soon, people, in theory, should return to Nerezinovaya on March 10.

I always go to the provinces for work - it's even easier there than to Antananarivo. Although I almost always use the services of metropolitan cops - I already know them well.

This is just the caterpillar of a friend from the message No. 34
Papilio demodocus and is.
These horns are called osmeteria (osmeterium lat.)=odorous glands and have them on the treads of sailboats to deter attackers.
