February 15, 2009
Temperature +10 ... 12, thick clouds, calm.
I took a walk in the vicinity of Feodosia.
The first thing I saw was an adult caterpillar Nebula ablutaria. Nebula achromaria

A little later, another caterpillar was caught Arctia festiva

Biotope.


I go ashore. Gifts of the sea.


Sea.


I climb back up the ridge, bird's eye view.



The last evergreens bloom here.


And nearby, in a bottle left by someone, hidden treasure.

In addition, there were three species of wasps, similar to bag butterflies, sawflies, a couple of dipteran species, and bedbugs. Poor thing, but not surprising in this gray weather.

Does anyone know how to find a catchy spot or do you need to check all the places in the forest (all slopes, parts) to find out the question?
And can it be that in a few meters there may be a difference in the catch?
Maybe you can find something on the map (where there is dense vegetation or a southern slope)

I went out of town for a couple of hours on February 19.
Photo notes – "Life under the bark"

















And in the same place, but on March 9





A little further on, on the bank of a small river.
09.03.09 Cattle grazing has already started.
Photo notes – "Life under a cow cake"
(or "The harsh truth of life", or
" Homeland is not chosen...")













PS in the first pictures, a cut of a tree, it wasn't me who sawed, it was so.

We tried to open the season on 21.03,the weather, of course, is non-flying (+4), but we can't wait any longer.
There is almost no summer-5 E. transversa, 1-A. pilosaria, 1-A. aescularia, 1-D. fagella, a couple of leafhoppers on trees, two floaters and some other interesting little beetle, a few diptera-that is, almost nothing, but the season is open .
And to the question of what flies better. Left lamp 250 DRV 250 with bluish light+on the other side of the screen 30watt bakterotsydnaya. Right -250 DRV with a yellowish color. Lamps are located at 90 degrees.
On the right flew all the beetles , one scoop , alsophila and diurnea, everything else on the left. Statistics really no ..
Caught from 18 to 20, until we got home it snowed and the temperature dropped to 0.

Another small report.
March 17. About +10, light wind, partly cloudy. Surroundings of Feodosia. Route-Karadag biostation-Ashlamalyk-ur. Lisya Bay - Echki-Dag.
At the biological station, I dropped by for a couple of minutes to see Yu. I. Budashkin. There is almost always a lepidoptera sitting near its doors - this time three pieces of Agriopis marginaria were found.
On the slopes of Ashlamalyk, Satyrus virbius caterpillars graze in large numbers in fescue mounds. There is also a wingless sawfly.
Fringed mulberry trees and Callie tulips bloom in Fox Bay.
A couple of dorcadions-Dorcadion cinerarium and Dorcadion sericatum - were found on the slopes of Echki-Dag, as well as the mining stem moth Digitivalva christophi.
On the photo: Agriopis marginaria, Satyrus virbius, fringed mulberry, Callie tulip, Digitivalva christophi, biotopes.

A report with a week's delay - either the site is not working, or there is no time...

... several types of flies...

20090316_094153.jpg -female Cheilosia grossa, a species of babbler that is quite common on the northern macroslope of the Crimean Mountains. A typical spring view, but you caught it a week earlier than the earliest imago departure date in the 19th and 20th centuries...

Pseudo-report on non-fishing. Kharkiv Forest Park, March 21, +6, partly cloudy. If someone can identify a bee, I would be very grateful... And also noted a few flies, spiders-tops... Mother-and-stepmother is in full bloom...

And the last, third report.
March 22, near Feodosia. Around +10, clear, quite strong and very cold wind.
There was a caterpillar Eilema caniola, covers (?)Stychobasis helicinoides minimus, caterpillars Melitaea cinxia, bedbugs Neides sp., lizards Lacerta taurica, various small animals running in the grass. Crocuses bloom, doubtful violet, spring adonis, rock double-seeded. Thin-leaved peony in buds.
In a remote place from the trails, I become a random witness of a pagan rite-on the temple people are praying loudly around the campfire: "I believe!..... I believe!......" Ah, yes, now it's the Equinox!

On the photo: Eilema caniola, Stychobasis helicinoides minimus, Lacerta taurica, Melitaea cinxia, Neides sp., doubtful violet, thin-leaved peony, spring adonis, rock double-seed, biotopes, temple.

update
"A temple was consecrated in Feodosia"

To Bad Den-to the report for 21.03 this beetle
is most likely a leaf beetle from the galerucin group, possibly heather (preliminary assumption of R. Gerasimov).
