this does not change anything - you need to look at the photo.. And why is the photo only blue month - because of the fact that it is straightened? So after all, they only dry for a few days.. these aren't your diaries..

02.06.2008 11:18, Трофим

And what's the hurry? While straightened, I will remove the weeks in 2. A few days I have never kept anyone on straightening. Although it may be so.

Good day, ladies and gentlemen!
Mr. RippeR, I hope you took all the pupae and all the larvae? I really want to hope so...
If so, then you need to immediately put them in boiling water. Immediately!
Bring to a boil (but only until small bubbles appear!!!) - and remove from heat. You can repeat the procedure after calming the water. Ready larvae and pupae should surface. Make sure that the pupae do not open the rudiments of the elytra!
Then throw it all on the filter (you can use a napkin) and let it dry. 10 minutes is enough. You have pure alcohol, I hope?" Put it in a container with pure alcohol and a pre-written label. Seal thoroughly. After a couple of weeks, you can change the alcohol. And that's it!
I need this and the more - the better!
And I have a lot of things for you, including "heartbreaks".
UPD. You're right about the larvae-it looks like Lucanus.

Nimrod:
there were 9 pupae - everything is there. They have already started to get a little dark (not all of them) - apparently they want to go out soon. There were no larvae. I did not take that larva of lucanus, I knew in advance that I would not bring it out frown.gif
Do you have any idea what kind of species it is? They're just a little bigger than affinis and vieberi, sort of.. maybe arugenos?
Post read-run to boil smile.gif

So the report:
the dumplings were cooked delicious, although not saltysmile.gif, now they are drying on cotton pads, waiting for the advent of alcohol smile.gif
Cooked well. they didn't open anything smile.gifso that they would die and the squirrels inside would turn over?
By the way, I went too far with the aruginos, they're not that big.. smile.gif I think it's probably affinis.

By the way, about maggots - if I find maggots, should I cook them all? And then I usually don't take them, but I understand it's worth it?
By the way, I don't remember whether I said it or not - I hatched Gnorimus nobilis, a male, about half a month ago. And the strangest thing is that it's made of pine! Either I collected the larvae themselves (larva) in a pine tree, or just threw the larva into an aquarium with a rotten stump of pine, but the result is on the face (last year's larva..) .

Gnorimus was a surprise to me - I had completely forgotten that I had maggots there.. It's just that a barbel escaped from the same place, which I found not far from the aquarium, and then naturally I looked there, and there it is...
Larvae sometimes come across - I'll take it.. If you take larvae-try to bring to the pupae or cook and larvae?

"I must have missed something? Where is it?"
in one message, I wrote about the assumption.. smile.gif

Today I'm going to that place again, but this time with a hatchet, so there may be a replenishment.

Nimrod, thank you. But still, I hope to find something else from the flower shop. Night fishing (alas, only under lanterns) is sacred. Small things (Aphodieev and Ontofagov) I can take for you, the main thing is to get hold of the appropriate substrate for fishingsmile.gif)

Nimrod:
Unfortunately, I cooked all 9-x frown.gifShould have left at least 1 for breeding?

Today I collected 2 larvae from the dead part of a live oak tree and 4 from oak logs (in a different place, exactly of a different species). What to do? From 2-x 1 cook - another try to withdraw. and from 4-x 1 try to bring out another cook?? Or how? Runny nose of those 4-x I do not know if it will be possible to withdraw-the substrate is very weak-they fell out it is not clear where, and the logs are hard and dry. do not break it was..
I watched it in the same place. I cut down all the possible wood, but there was nothing more.. frown.gif

Who's that?" Even a family?

This melandriid is Conopalpus, most likely testaceus (Olivier, 1790).

I'll try to make it shorter: for 5 days there were 16 glasses of mash, of which I found only 13. Bottom line: 1 cancellatus, ~6 convexus, ~60 excellens, 4 nebrii, a couple of pterostiches, a dozen abacuses.
In the forest 3 gnorimus, 3 dicercus, mesozoic, cool melandrid, cool grinder, 1 leiopus nebulosus, 1 Saperda octopunctata. Glamorous bronzer, apparently affinis with an interesting color and small size.
zhuzhlo and mesozoic change-fly in.

The most important detail is obscured. Namely, the seventh keel-like seam .In carinatus, it should extend along the entire length of the elytra.
Try clicking from a different angle.So that the sides are clearly visible. And the size is desirable

To RippeR:
"Melandriida" - from pollen traps-in my opinion, it looks like something from the unicolored Mycetochara. But it would be better to check by keys.
And the grinder is generally tin! I don't know about Rod, I've never seen one like it. It seems to me that it's out of control. Xyletininae. In the "green" there are no such things-you need to watch the" Fauna".

Today I was in the field and in the forest-I set traps, where Lamostenus terricola was caught last year.
In addition, 1 Besseri and 1 scabriusculus were caught. Dorcadions are fulvum, tauricum, and neo-billineatum. Enough Chlorophorus figuratus, 1 Dorcus, 1 Litta vesicatoria, 1 agrilus biguttatus, 1 Stenocorus meridianus black, sitting on plantain ) Well, and a little more stuff.
My partner caught a big morimus.
There is also 1 cupreya, but a bronze one! And it looks like an aurata on top. Later I will post a photo of the bronze and something else, if anyone wants )

Finally, catching the light started working. (At least in our area).
The night before last, there was a swarm of dustpans (15-20 species), even more of some green stuff and all sorts of moths. We were pleased with the female rhino, the golden-bellied beauty, and the cute Drypta with a light head and back.
Last night (except for an even bigger swarm of dustpans and trivia): again, the beautiful and pleasantly surprised Hyles Hippophaes.

In the forest plantation, a deer flew sharply, several pieces got into the habit of circling around my lantern smile.gifThe density of beetles is large, but for some reason there are no females, maybe they haven't come out of the ground yet. But with the size is too tight: mostly everything is 4-5 cm, less often 5.5-6, something is probably missing for the larvae. In general, my search for a handsome giant has not yet been crowned, and a lot of beetles have been sorted out...

I just got back from checking out the traps from a week ago.. Fees are quite meager.
Just a tip: who puts traps, salt in the brew or wine is a must!!!! Potmou that in a week, some of the traps have already begun to rot.. very chepyalno frown.gifSo povaenivali, but I washed them well, so that's better smile.gif

So the field is:
2 coriaceus, 2 scabriusculus, a bunch of racehorses and some not interesting stuff frown.gifAnd a bunch of dead eaters, of course!

Forest:
2 traps were pulled frown.gifout In the rest:
what is strange, the traps in the forest did not stink..
3 coriaceus, 2 convexus, 2 cancellatus, 7 excellenses, 1 excellence of which is bronze with a green border-a rare form smile.gifof 2 black leistus, amarca.

manually assembled 1 potosia-a large fieberi or lugubris with a reduced almost, pattern. some Stenurella septempunctata, Pachytodes erraticus, Chlorophorus figuratus, Anoplodera sexguttata, 1 weevil, a pair of Thymelicus sp.

Good day to all.From June 10 to 13, he went on an expedition to the south-east of Ukraine-the south of the Kharkiv and Donetsk regions.Interesting facts:
10.06.08-Izyumsky district, Kharkiv region, born:
- Marumba quercus-2 males, flown,
- motley bird Z. statices,
- female M. rubi,
-2 specimens of the bear Arctinia caezarea.
Oak hawk moth and dipper were caught by me in Kharkiv region for the first time.Interestingly, the oak hawk moth, which was destroyed by pesticides in the region in the 1970s, began to reappear, although the bulk of the finds of the species lies to the south-Donetsk, Dnepropetrovsk region
12-13. 06. 08-south of the Donetsk region:
- After 8 years, the day hawk moth Hemaris croatica was found again (see photo), in good numbers-up to a dozen individuals could be found in a day.Only the quality of imago was lame-only a fifth of it is in good condition-they quickly get frayed in flight and the green pigment burns out.
We managed to take several high-quality photos, both in flight and at rest.This view was the main goal of the trip.
I considered the population in this place to be extinct-after 2000 there was only one find,but no-I just got caught for years.I took a few pieces, who needs it-I can share it, write to your personal address.
By the way, this is Budashkin's favorite hawk moth-he researched it a lot on Kara-Dag,wrote a lot of articles on this species...
I was still hoping to catch the miniature hawk moth Sph. gorgoniades and the bear C. maculosa, but they haven't come out yet...
Later, I'll write something else about this trip and add a photo.

The main cluster of flowering lime trees is just clouds, and in the evening they fly in hundreds, especially you can see how the clouds are spinning around the lanterns.

So that's who's flying. Thank you, we will know, and I chera when you left H. galii on the flowers intercepted. Grandmothers near the entrance immediately noticed that he was catching it there. It was a good thing that the backpack contained syringes and ethyl acetate. Quickly the bag was changed, what was at hand and sent hawkmoth there.

I was in Belarus near Vitebsk, the work did not give me the opportunity to catch, but a large number of large perelivnits caught my eye. On the way back, I stopped at 144 km of the Minsk highway to collect chanterelles, caught the bear dominula and several blackheads, probably ligei; in general, blackheads swarmed there. Can fish and jellyfish fly in those parts at all or not?

Crimea - Feodosia.
11 days. Due to the presence of a wife, nephew and wine and beer products in the kit, combined with a chaotic schedule, we managed to catch just a couple of days, and also along the way, which ran through.
Now in order.
Anti-report (failed to catch):
1. Scorpio. I searched under the rocks in the New World, Ordzhonikidze. No one frown.gif
2. The phalanx. I was looking for it in the same place as the scorpion. And this is despite the fact that a guy in Feodosia showed me a live phalanx caught in the New World, and on the beach a couple of times I heard shrill stories of aunts about " yesterday's meeting with a terrible monster." Hurtful.
3. Empusa. This is generally a mystery - where to get it, it is not clear. Ordzhonikidze, Koktebel, Sudak, Novy Svet... The landscapes are the best, but there are no mantises.
4. Crimean ground beetle (and others). I realized now that I wasn't exactly looking for them there.
Only one tarantula was caught in the traps set on the slopes with steppe vegetation, drowned in vinegar. And so full 0. Although in the morning, several small green ground beetles brazenly ran past me, pulling out empty glasses.
5. Dybka steppe (somehow I didn't really hope, but still). About tolstun mnogobugorchaty generally silent smile.gifBut even izofii not caught.
Immediately about catching the light: I took a flashlight with powerful diodes, 7 pieces. I caught it by shining it on the sheets. In addition to the 2 red-headed nutcrackers, something large flashed in the beam, such as a hawk moth or a large sea lion. As a result, I had to take offense at them all and go to bed.

Now about what was caught seen:
1. Black cockroach is everywhere in huge numbers, lives in the wild, "in nature", but miraculously teleports to homes and pleases in the morning with a friendly smile from the ceiling.
2. A rampart of various locusts, in adult form (almost did not catch). Thick mottled grasshoppers, various fillies. Upon arrival in Donetsk, I found that we still have small larvae jumping (except for tettigonia, which is abnormally many now flying to the light).
3. With the membranes, too, full order, but I don't really catch them, I took a couple of scolias for aesthetics. There were interesting bees, similar to xylocops, but slightly larger in size than the usual honeybee. I was impressed by 2 wasp species, one similar to an ammophila, only larger and more powerful dragged hefty spiders along the ground, and the second, something between a scolia and a hornet, caught large cicadas and carried them off in an unknown direction. There were also various cool wild bees and small previously unseen scolias. Now I regret that I was too lazy to catch them, but I am sure that they will not go anywhere from there and will be followed. once caught.
4. From the actual Crimean fauna, we were pleased with askalafs, funny creatures. 1 time caught satanas, eating Kuzka. As luck would have it, the net was not with him, the reptile did not give in to bare hands, deftly escaping from me at the very last moment and continuing to eat at the same time. There were many other ktyrs, smaller ones, both red and gray, but I didn't see the giant one anymore.
5. In the Fox Bay, I finally reached the cicadas. So far, attempts to catch the big man sitting high in the trees have been futile. Last year, in Alushta, I almost fell off a rocky slope with a wild desire to grab this screaming creature, and here I took it calmly, with my hands, at 6 o'clock in the morning. Cicadas at this time only warm up their chirping equipment and are not so active. Under the tree I found, there was a bush with dozens of empty skins, and there were still belated ones being hatched and dealt with. From the tree itself, it was easy to collect hundreds of cicadas, 2 types: large size with dots on the wings and very large. But I didn't want to put out the harmless tummies for nothing, so I took a few for myself. Steppe cicadas are also plentiful, with a total catch of approx. 5 types.
6. Deer beetles: yes. I caught a small one right on the embankment, and also saw a crushed beetle of an interesting shape: the size is huge, approx. 8 cm. But at the same time, small horns and just unmeasured elytra, in general, a giant minor form.
7. Butterflies: many beautiful circe and other marigolds, as yet undefined, swallowtails, mother-of-pearl pandoras. In the Karadag Nature Reserve for the evil of enemies caught polychrome.smile.gif
8. From under the stone in Ordzhonikidze in an unequal battle was extracted 10-cm. scolopendra, named Vitenka, because already on arrival home, this Vitenka made a dark night escape. My wife was extremely happy and refused to sleep at home... The next night I had to save the cat from the aggressive Vitenka.

The huntsmen left a special impression, especially in the New World. Judging by their appearance, according to their jaeger's charter, it is mandatory to drink antifreeze during the day, and at night to ride with horns on the ground. Some of them offend not only others, but also all protected areas in general. But so carefully look at the mountains-yes, so that tourists accidentally miss!, and on mopeds along the serpentine, with strawberry faces. There were also normal ones, but less often.

And now I want to appeal to the Crimeans and Crimeans: I ask you to comment on my points about nepoymannom-where, what I did not catch and look for, and vice versa, maybe tips and recommendations in order to follow. just close these gaps.

Now the slides smile.gif

Most likely, they were bees from the genus Chalicodoma-mason bees ( in English mason bee). Sorry we didn't get caught.....
