Actually, everything is in the title. A question for experts. In late July-early August, what interesting things can be fished on the Curonian Spit, maybe there are endemics? In the Internet, except for "zelenukh" did not find anything...
Thank you in advance for the inf..

If I'm not mistaken, this is the Kaliningrad region. In the spring there is a western May crunch and dung typheus. In late July or early August, I don't think that there will be anything traveling there.

Yes, the Kaliningrad region. Thank you for the information and clarification!

Can anyone else tell me?

At the end of July, the western May already definitely departs, but the numbers 20-25 will probably still be able to catch years of Polyphylla fullo. I don't know about Typheus, but unfortunately I didn't see him there. Look for pastures of hares, in theory it should live on them. Well, try to catch the light, maybe it will fly.
Other interesting things there are Cicindela maritima and Rhamnisium bicolor (I didn't catch the latter myself, but there is information about its presence on the Lithuanian part of the spit). Plus all sorts of psammophiles, like Phylopedon plagiatus, Melanimon tibialis and Phylan gibbus.

Of the butterflies there is a satyr semele, just at this time should fly.

And what kind of "zelenukh" did you find on the Internet?

Thank you, Dergg!

I'm not a great specialist in entomology, I didn't find anything serious about the mentioned braid. Your post contains exactly what I'm interested in! About pastures of hares, not a practical joke? smile.gif

Here is the most banal thing about Zelenukh http://www.klops.ru/news/Obschestvo/3970/U...hskoj-kose.html

Sincerely.

Ah, so it's about mosquitoes... Yes, there is enough of this stuff there smile.gif

As for pastures, well, it's just from the literature that typheus seems to feed on rabbit feces. Of which there are really quite a lot on the dunes in some places.

We will look for dunes, and Cicindela maritima is probably connected with them...

Why bother looking for them? And the spit itself is small and the dunes are by no means small smile.gif

sciurus, you can try searching in the sea sediments Aegialia arenariaAegialia arenaria
Apart from the Kaliningrad region, this beetle is not found anywhere else in Russia.

The entire spit is essentially a dune. From the sea side there is a great beach, from the bay side there are solid reeds, a bird's paradise. The ZINA ornithological biostation is located on the spit. Solid building with territory.
In general, the spit is a paradise!

By the smile.gifway, the most interesting things (Polyphylla, Cicindela maritima) came across me mainly on the dunes from the sea. On the bay side, there are mostly ordinary alder / pine forests, and all sorts of banals live in them...

By the way, did anyone catch arenaria there, and if so, when and where? How many of these sediments I shoveled there, but there is no sense frown.gif

I was not there, judging by the description of the spit 90 km, width 0.38-3.8 km, I wrote "we will search" in the sense of paying attention to them...
