another batch of poison for children's minds from the Kharkiv publishing house Ranok. Keep in mind that the photo shows a dead dragonfly, apparently placed on a flower specifically for the "beauty" of the composition. The blunder lies in the fact that the pretty girl, like other types of dragonflies, are not pollinators of flowers, because they are all predators and hunt other insects, and some even spiders.

There is no sign of Drury's Antimacnus. It meant the butterfly sailboat antimachus (Latin Papilio antimachus). Only here it is not named after Drew Drury, he is just a scientist who first described this species back in 1782.
The picture shows a completely different butterfly from a different family-it shows a male butterfly called Mother-of-Pearl big (Argynnis paphia), which, firstly, is from the family of Nymphalids, and antimachus, respectively, belongs to the family of Sailboats.
Secondly, the great mother-of-pearl in Africa lives only in Algeria, and otherwise is widely distributed in the temperate zone throughout Eurasia. And third, the wingspan of a true antimachus is on average more than the specified 12 cm, and is 18-23 cm, up to a maximum of 25 cm.
But in general, the antimachus sailboat is very similar in the nature of the pattern and the general coloring of the wings to this butterfly, although the differences are quite well expressed.

From the genus Lucanus there are certainly species, but in the photo, judging by the shape and color of the mandibles, it is the European deer beetle L. cervus

From the series "entokinolyapy".

Screenshot from the movie "Red Dragon". An interior element in the house of Hannibal Lecter. Both the form and content of signatures of Latin names of insects are "pleasing". Hannibal probably doesn't know as much about entomology as he does about psychiatry and cooking, since he keeps such a place frown.gif

All the disadvantages are a continuation of the advantages. The gastronomic taste is particularly developed, and the entomological one has failed smile.gif

Not only did they manage to put spiders, worms, snails and other invertebrates that are not related to insects in the book called" insects".

It turns out that Goliath beetles have learned to fly with raised elytra. Like all members of the bronzer family, unlike ALL other beetles, they fly without lifting the elytra, releasing their wings through special cutouts on the sides of the elytra.

Text in Russian - " Imagine, some butterflies eat with their paws. But tigger likes to taste dishes with his tongue."

He draws us a scene straight out of a horror movie - a butterfly that feeds on nectar through its legs.

Tasting and eating with your paws are clearly two completely different things.

Well, here the most specific mess is with grasshoppers, and very strange and confusing ))))
Maybe there is a short sawyere, although it is not for nothing that they divided the short sawyere and long sawyere, but in the photo 100% not a grasshopper, moreover, as far as I know, long - sawyered straight-winged stridulates rub their wings, but short-moustached ones-with a leg on the wing.
That is, what we are talking about-you will understand figs-some kind of locust is drawn, it is written about grasshoppers, and the method of stridulation is described as locust))))))

I wonder what - if this book is copied from the west, then they mess up no worse than we do)

11.01.2014 23:22, PVOzerski

>I wonder what - if this book is copied from the west, it means that they mess up no worse than we do)
Uh, no... It doesn't look like it. I'll explain. The mechanism of chirping there (in the Russian version), indeed, is described specifically for locusts: with their feet on the elytra. And vegetarianism is more about locusts. With the "long sawyers", it is really strange. But I would rather assume that the translator translated " grasshopper "as" grasshopper "(in fact, grasshoppers in the scientific literature are so called only by Australians, and usually" grasshopper " is a filly). Well, and then he "went crazy", adding "long sawyers"from himself.

However, I didn't see the original source.

12.01.2014 18:09, Hierophis

PVOzerski, I also came to a similar conclusion later, thinking about this paradox, but.. everything would be fine, but what about Goliath, who spread his elytra? wink.gif

13.01.2014 14:33, DYNASTES

but what about Goliath, who spread his wings? wink.gif


here the creators of the original source have already screwed up. I still couldn't figure out if it was a photo or a drawing. The head looks like it was photographed, and the elytra and wings seem to be drawn.

Gymnopleurus (Gymnopleurus and related genera) also fly without raising their elytra

The option with a photo of a straightened dry beetle is excluded?

I read this news here today: http://vk.com/theunicornhorn
Example and details of embroidery with beetle wings. Established in 1880 at the Hobart School for Muslim Girls in Madras, India. Embroidered with gold thread on a black muslin net. Elytra - from goldenrod beetles, which shed them naturally throughout life.
Clothing and accessories containing such embroidery became extremely fashionable during the Victorian period.

Interestingly, the original message read: "The elytra are from goldenrod beetles, which are harvested after their natural death."
But good people corrected it...
