12.09.09 Kiev region, Desna River, near the village of Dubechnya (N50°42 '44’, E030°41' 53’), from 20-00 to 06-00, DRV 250 lamp and 8 watt UVL.
The evening is warm, but until the morning the temperature dropped to +12. The goal is autumn butterflies, but the years are weak and mostly ragged summer. Icteritia and c-nigrum predominated among scoops (where without it) in 15 specimens each, and dimidiata and comae predominated among moths.

The weather didn't help , but I really wanted to-we went to the Kiev polesie in the Black Grouse area (Milkovo tract N50°45’29’,E029°29’15’). At 19-00, the lamps were turned on, +13, scoops seemed to fly a little-helvola, macilenta, rubiginea, shabby satura, fraxini, nok 21-00 the moon rose and the temperature dropped to +7, except for Epirrita autumnata, nothing flew, so at 22-00 we gathered and left for Kiev, in some lowlands in the forest the thermometer is in the car it showed +3.
So all that arrived were 5 types of scoops,one of them is a moth (but a lot), another hornet, a larger geotrup, and a couple of diptera.
I spread out the female helvola,macilenta, and a couple of colorful epiriths to make the trip worthwhile. A week ago, dilutats were caught near Kiev , and here-otumnats(the distance is about 100 km).
I hope the season is not closed yet, last year 01.11 on the Bukrine there was a very good year

Due to the expected cold snap, we decided to take a short trip in the middle of the week on a warm night. Kiev area, near Kruglyk, 09.10.09 (N50°19 '02’, E030°25' 46’), from 18-30 to 23-00, quite comfortable temperature of 20 at the beginning, 18 at the end. Mixed forest with a predominance of deciduous trees.
The flight is good, the first butterflies arrived at 18-50. Lamps 3 DRV 250..
Here is the result
.

1-C. pennaria
2-Ch. siterata
3-Th. obeliscata
4-Th. juniperata
5-E. dilutata-at least 100 specimens in bulk
6-Epirrita autumnata-very few
7-Eupithecia. sp1

1-H.proboscidalis
2-C.nupta

1-A.oxyacanthae
2-D.caeruleocephala
3-A.perflua
4-H.armigera
5-T.aureago
6-C.icteritia
7-A.helvola
8-A.macilenta

10-C.vaccinii
11-L.ornitopus
12-G.aprilina

There are many diptera (including species of 5 flies), webs (hornets up to three dozen specimens). and some other wasps), a couple of types of bedbugs.
Beetles –one species-many specimens. yellow light-mottled cows. Well, up to 10 types of micro.

24.10.09 Cherkasy region, Smelyansky district, near the village of Starosillya (N49°17 '08’, E031°40' 11’) deciduous forest, from 18-00 to 21-30, lamps 2 DRV 250.
Dull.something is trying to drizzle, +17 at the beginning, +12 at the end. Years are very, very old, but the set of species is naturally not very diverse . The goal was-plumigera, poplar cocoonworm, sphinx scoop and colorful defoliaries.

1-N.revayana

2-E. dilutata may have been found and removed, but we did not carefully consider them, and there are probably several hundred of them.
3-O.brumata-до сотни
4-C.pennaria
5-A.aurantiaria
6-E.defoliaria

7-P.populi

8-P. plumigera-at first they took all of them, then large ones, then multicolored ones, and then they didn't take them anymore-at least a hundred crawled and flew, but only males and very fresh ones, I counted 29 specimens at home that I took.

9-A. pyramidea
10-M. albipuncta-these two species have gone on a spree so
long ago 11-A. circellaris
12-A. macilenta
13-A. litura
14-E. transversa
15-C.vaccinii-a lot, collected dark ones with the hope of a ligule,but unfortunately there is no such thing, there seems to be one ligule in the collection. If they dry out, I'll put them out, if I make a mistake .16
-A. sphinx-four females have arrived
17-X. togata

That's all macro, several types of leaf-twisters, a couple of types of fireflies (like), at least two types of bedbugs, eardrums, some flies and crawled on duty karabus-convexus (definition of Gerasimov's colleague).
Here's part of the catch

07.11.09. I really don't want to finish the season,after the frosts we decided to go to the area of V. Bukrina , and suddenly something interesting . Lamps 3DRV 250. From 17-00 to 20-00. Strong wind, I had to go into the forest and stand on the edge of the ravine. Plus 14 at the beginning, 12 at the end.Clearly
Our "suddenly" was justified, the years for this time are not bad. A lot of webs and diptera, 10 micro species that I. Kostyuk collected for colleagues, a couple of species of bedbugs, beetles, unfortunately only the usual ladybug, well, macro

1-P. populi-9ex. two of them are good females

2-A. aceraria-in all 10 specimens-first caught by us, a new species in my collection.
3-Ch. siterata
4-O.brumata-there are a lot
of them 5-E. dilutata
6-E. autumnata-perhaps some females are difficult to distinguish at night

7-P. plumigera - only a few specimens, in contrast to the massive summer two weeks ago in the Cherkasy region.

8-A. circellaris
9-A. macilenta
10-A. laevis - these three species are not the first freshness, especially-8
11-E. transversa
12-C. vaccinii
13-C. rubiginosa-these are the most among the scoops. The last three types are fresh, as if from a maternity hospital

November 15, 2009
A small expedition to the vicinity of the village of Kamenskoye on the Azov Sea. Structure: Y. I. Budashkin, N. Kaigorodova and I.

The goal is to search for the moth Ithysia pravata, which is still known within Ukraine only from a few finds.
The weather is overcast, around +10. We examined several sections of stony steppe along the coast. In many places, the steppe is pitted with quarries, in some places small gullies descend to the sea.
The following species were encountered:
Vanessa atalanta
Colias crocea
Autographa gamma
Udea ferrugalis
Nomophila noctuella
Deuterotinea casanella
Plutella xylostella
And finally, in the last examined area, two males of Ithysia pravata were found at once!
