And, by the way, the other day I tried to figure out where the burdock (burdock) generally got such an inappropriate name, how sideways is it to the burdock (burdock)? In Yakhontov (1939), it is still an "honest" thistle, and in Plavilshchikov's translated Tyche (1958), it is already an incomprehensible burdock. At the same time, it is written that the book uses "names that are already available in Russian literature." So who and when christened cardui burdock?

I looked out for anything - budyakivka, chortopolokhivka, rep'yakhivka...
but Burdock-it's just a charm!

for okoem

I spent two hours looking for a connection...
Found it in the thistle description (see selection)
The Russian botanical name of the genus comes from the folk name of a group of prickly weeds belonging to different species Cardus, Arctium, Cirsium,
(Arctium=burdock)

Probably because burdock is a popular folk name for plants, which also includes thistle.

Yes, just talking about thistles. That is, burdock in a compartment with thistles used to be called thistles, and the butterfly thistle, and then burdock was called burdock, and the thistle remained thistle. At the same time, for some reason, the butterfly was also crossed, although it did not switch from carduus to arctium. confused.gif

Probably because burdock is a popular folk name for plants, which also includes thistle.

There was such an assumption, but I wasn't looking for confirmation.

It is still interesting to know what kind of " literature "Plavilshchikov took the name"burdock".

14.01.2012 0:36, Hierophis

Probably the name "burdock" sounds somehow more decent than "thistle" smile.gif

WHAT KIND OF INSECT HAS TAKEN UP RESIDENCE IN MY APARTMENT?

Girls,helpme!
I began to notice on the windowsill in the room corpses of small, brown, round, like a seed, beetles! At first, I didn't attach any importance to this - I thought it was from the flowers. Then I moved all the pots to another place, and I started noticing this stuff crawling on the curtains! And then - more: this crap settled in the pile of carpet! ! I washed the curtains, treated the carpet first with Vanish detergent, and then sprayed it with bleach and water, just in case. I stopped noticing them.
And now I'm sitting at the computer, and right in front of my nose again crawling this... on the curtain!!
Has anyone ever had this experience? And what should I do? I'm terrified of insects, even small ones like these beetles!((

Nadin (Expert Advisor)
Do they bite you, by any chance?"Just by the description can be bloodsuckers, faced with such.But they can't say for sure.

Just_me (pre-Star)
I don't know,thank God I didn't notice this stuff on myself!
And where do bloodsuckers come from?

Fuchik (pre-Star)
Do you happen to have a parquet floor? I have the same kaka settled, but there are very few of them. I have a strong suspicion that they are eating parquet... ttt, that they are not bedbugs, I am terribly afraid of bedbugs!

Just_me (pre-Star)
I have a thick pile carpet. I also suspected a wood-eater of some kind,but there is no wood in the curtains and carpet!
Although my desktop is right next to the window... Maybe they're sharpening it?

Fuchik (pre-Star)
Look at Mail's answers - many people have a similar problem, these creatures are called the skin-eating beetle.
It doesn't drink blood, but it spoils the decoration, furniture and things...

Just_me (pre-Star)
Buuuuee, what a horror!!

Anirka (Project Star)
if they do not bite you, then these are simple beetles that start up in flowers, when the soil is excessively moistened..they start up in the ground.
I sometimes have such small and hard ones ))

didgeridoo (Goddess)
those who live and fly in flowers-it seems to be blackbirds-start up when the soil dies down.
And these brown seeds just eat parquet-I saw in my parquet such a bug-it crawled out when we sat down to watch a movie and watched with us/

Just_me (pre-Star)
ahaha, she's a movie buff))

Fuchik (pre-Star)
By the way, yes! they look like apple seeds, right now I understand.

Anirka (Project Star)
they are generally different from blackbirds, they are more like midges, and these are just such beetles as the author of the question describes and also get out of the soil. )

didgeridoo (Goddess)
and I didn't know that these are also made of flowers)) brrr! in the photo exactly my bug-kinolyub))

Just_me (pre-Star)
By the way, yes.I just pulled the curtain-and this shit came from somewhere!!
I was so scared...

Anirka (Project Star)
read the info on the link, and then Google it again )

Fuchik (pre-Star)
Definitely him. I recognized him.

Just_me (pre-Star)
Oh, that's creepy...I've never looked at them so closely!)

Brunetka (Expert Advisor)
today, too, they came across look on the windowsill in the corner lie. only they are dead dried up some were
they already dangerous? how to get rid of them?

Anirka (Project Star)
here I mean such on the feed, they are tiny as a flea ))) mm 2 somewhere. Do you have them??

Wild Yuri, imho, this example is somewhat incorrect. It makes no sense to demand any correct judgments from people who are obviously far from entomology and do not claim any knowledge in this field. I, for example, also do not know much about fashion and applying makeup.

I don't ask them to make the right judgments. I just posted some funny stuff. Corresponding to the topic of the section. When I myself blurt out something out of ignorance (it happens) and they laugh at me, I laugh with everyone. This is humor. Then I try to find out more about the topic where I said "wrong"...

But this example is remarkable for me here. After all, in the discussion that took place, there is an answer to the question originally posed, and the "unknown animals" that so frightened the initiator of the discussion have been identified. So what? They don't give a damn about anything, the path "to knowing the truth" is practically ignored. They continue to discuss the problem of self-generation of beetles in flower pots (apparently, such a vision of the reason for the appearance of insects in the apartment is closer to them - why read about some leatherworms, delve...). I agree with Bad Den that it makes no sense to demand from people who are obviously far from entomology and do not pretend to any knowledge in this area, any correct judgments. I also agree with him that each of us, to put it mildly, is ignorant of many issues. But after all, the vast majority of us do not even try to talk intelligently about what they don't understand a fig, to give advice on issues that are far from their profile. But the participants in the above discussion about " film-loving beetles "are just trying, judging by their statements, to groundlessly claim the role of"experts". In my opinion, the Wild Yuri link perfectly illustrates one of the main, in my opinion, qualities of a person called a philistine (in the worst sense of the word): the willingness to reason and give advice on issues in which he doesn't understand a damn thing, instead of realizing his incompetence and turning to a specialist.

I think it's much simpler: many of them sincerely believe that they can deal with these frivolous beetles themselves, with their "inquisitive mind". And they do not even think about the fact that in this area, too, it is necessary to be guided not by prejudices and information from the OBS agency ("one woman said"), but by special knowledge.

More fun stuff. Here are abbreviated-the most interesting opinions. smile.gif
http://www.drive2.ru/users/vnz/blog/4035225266124026954/

What are these insects?

vnz
Went out on the balcony today to take a breath. In the corner is winter tires in bags slightly open. I look at what "shmokodyavki" run, insects, 0.5 mm in length. Inside the package, they sit in "flocks", on the package itself and rubber. The strange thing is that they are only where the wheels are. What kind of animal is this? Where could they have come from? And how to get rid of them?

SeregaA
Insect called rezinoed (this is the second name) or platentus ... very strange or you have very hot on the balcony toli do not know how you created the conditions for them... as far as I know in our country it is very rare…

vnz
Duc here on the balcony is really hot, the sun warms, but direct rays do not fall on the rubber in bags.

SeregaA
well, I would also fuss =) and then everything happens… = ) and so I think from insects in pet stores can be or type EVERYTHING FOR THE HOUSE... something like that…

vnz
ok, I will look for funds )

annushka
chot in my opinion is a moth poplar
coat can eat for 2 accounts

vnz
hmm, I don't have wool in my wheels )
She might have drifted into the poplar fluff, right? Pooh was not lost recently (

annushka
well, if it's her, then these things start up in poplars. and since there are plenty of poplars, there's plenty of this stuff, too

vnz
hmm, I don't see any poplars, but there was a lot of fluff

Baka
All ... kapets rubber. This is only outside, and inside their larvae have already gnawed holes.
Just kidding... are you keeping your chasuble properly?

vnz
is honestly not very correct. My balcony is warm, even hot. Rubber without rims, stand vertically, sometimes I roll it so that there is no oval shape.

Baka
What is vertical is correct. You can't store them vertically on disks.

vnz
ugums, I read about it. I'm only tormented by doubts that the river is nice to be so warm and hot... and there is nowhere else to put them

curren
I looked in Vekipedia )
These are:
The Poltava tire eater (Politavicus tiredeat — is a pest rodent that came from Ukraine. It feeds exclusively on low-profile rubber, but at the beginning of the 21st century it began to eat ordinary rubber, this is due to genetic metamorphosis and adaptation to new polymers…

Xunter585
cool shmokodyavki. and it seems tenacious )

vnz
yeah, cool ) just do not lend themselves to training, and were not going to leave my tires at my request This year they were not noticed, although I have not looked at summer tires for a long time )

End of discussion.

I remembered the unforgettable Alexander Ivanov with his " great is the mighty Russian language!" http://svelteds.livejournal.com/2722.html
Yes, a funny translation! Clearly "machine-generated". But this does not deprive the authors of the site of the opportunity (responsibility?) verify and correct everything. I was also pleased with "... some Khrushchevs, several types of butterflies... like steppe and giant ... "
But I didn't find the epic "rhino is strong" there. There is a somewhat outdated, but still used, Russian name for the beetle Phyllognathus excavatus (Forster, 1771) - "rhinoceros-strong". It is derived from the synonym Phyllognathus silenus (Fabricius, 1775). So with rhino-everything is almost correct wink.gif.

Funny website... About the bread beetle there is also interesting:
"The head and thoracic body segments of larvae are dark brown, the abdomen of larvae of the first, second and in the middle of the third century
is gray-green..." During the day, they are kept in different storage facilities, and after sunset they climb up the stems to the ear, where they first gnaw out the ovary, and later the soft grain of wheat "
" The larvae feed on the ladder of winter crops, and the food can continue under the snow. The larvae eat the young leaves of the shoots, leaving only the veins. Damaged plants have a terrible appearance. "

11.03.2012 20:19, scarit

But this is not even clear what language was translated:
"The beetle is a small invertebrate animal known for its extraordinary mobility and has a variety of shapes and sizes. Beetles live in almost all areas on Earth and can not be found only in the icy polar regions.
Beetles have the largest number of subspecies of all insects, 40% of all known insects belong to the order beetles. There are more than 350,000 different known beetle species, but scientists estimate its actual population to be between 4 and 8 million beetle species.
Like other insect species, the beetle's body consists of three sections covered with a hard outer shell-the head, chest, and abdomen. The beetles also have antennae, which are used to recognize the beetle's environment and which consist of 10 different sections.
Beetles are thought to play an important role in any ecosystem they inhabit, mainly by ingesting debris from plants and animals, including fallen petals and animal feces. All animals that absorb decomposing substances help the earth in an amazing way, as they absorb large amounts of substances that would otherwise be absorbed into the soil, such as carbon dioxide and nitrogen.
Some large beetle species feed on small birds and even small mammal species. Other types of beetles feed on wood dust and therefore love to burrow into trees.
Recently, the Asian barbel can be found in some North American states, this beetle quickly acquired the characteristic of an agricultural pest. The Asian barbel is a type of bark-boring beetle that buries itself in trees."

You can view both views Here. God forbid that I was wrong wall.gif

The question raised on 15.04.2012 is removed:
On the Zinovsky site, the name of zlatka is currently valid Acmaeodera (Acmaeotethya) degener (Scopoli 1763) this.
The suspicions were unjustified.
