On goloseritseyuma moreover not similar ((and on mattresses there is?

It's still there, but the photo will be taken later. But in my opinion, the usual kind of shabby goloseritseum....

To clarify (ask) I want: There on the sixth photo Dorkashika like-would Silpha obscura finish up? (just about these sylphs now in our city "stumble" at every step).

Some dried up from caught in the Don region.
Combined hodgepodge

Podalirium and polyxenes

Didyma, which may not be didyma


Phryns and afras

Didyma, which may not be didyma

... a trivia!

Or maybe Gennady is right and this is Robertsey? Trivia flies a month later, plus they write about Roberts that it flies together with polyxenes, phryns and afras...?

Very likely. I actually meant trivia sensu lato.

Work and family matters almost all of April and early May did not give the opportunity to escape "to the fields". It's finally happening this weekend . I didn't manage to go far - I went to my old places near the village of Melenki in the Rostov district of the Yaroslavl region. On May 15, I visited the old pine forest, where there is an Oxymirus cursor point. They are caught on low dry (but not rotten!) pine stumps. As a result, I collected 7 specimens (all females). I put some soil traps on zhuzhlo. While I was walking to the pine forest and back, I manually collected various small things, from which Ampedus tristis and Platydracus latebricola staff were pleased (I found it for the first time in general). Phytoecia cylindrica has already appeared on the growing umbrella plants. Butterflies flew a little and not rich in species composition: Inachis io, Araschnia levana, Pieris brassicae and napi, Callophrys rubi, males of some small pigeon (for me to identify them, and even in flight - unthinkable). I saw one Papilio machaon. Just as I was leaving the forest, it started to rain, which pretty much ruined my mood. It lasted until late in the evening. At night, as this morning, on May 16, there was no rain, but the forest is very wet (I did not regret that I put on my boots). Traps did not give the expected result the day before (apparently, the weather spoiled everything), except for Bembidion sp. (near a forest ditch), a few Harpalus and Pterostichus ("on the jump" nigrita, gracilis, minor). At the forest ditch grabbed some Donacia (it is necessary to determine). That's all for now. Thanks to Oxymirus cursor, I will not anger God - the first pancake is far from lumpy .

Victor, congratulations on the oximiruses! I need to go to my point, too, otherwise I still won't get out-maybe I'll finally find the male, but God forbid I find the females (the beetle is painfully "sly"). Catch class!!!

I put some soil traps on zhuzhlo.

Oxymirus cursor-a good bug!!! How much is a little???

Dmitrich:
Can you save 1-2 cursors for me and london?
We will be grateful

Andrey, although the question is not for me-I will also take a look (but not the fact that I will find it ). If there are still females, I will collect them specially for you.

well, the males are the same, of course! Thanks!

And I have a pair of Oxymirus cursor from Hoverla spoiled (
The mattresses were moldy in the Carpathians, it rained for a week... Brought - dried. Then soak, mount... I took a brush, and this mold, along with the antennae and paws, was photographed)

Of course! I hope to have another look next weekend, if nothing is out of the way. And from this batch, the first in line are ssacad (I promised him first) and you, Andrey .

Hardly got out on Saturday to the dacha, the north of the Ryazan region, Gus-Zhelezny. Having traveled to all the necessary points, I came to the conclusion that the butterflies that are set by the time of year are all available and fly ahead of schedule, but it seems that due to the very heavy winter, the number is 5-10 times less than last year. Fly:
- mnemosyne (fresh)
- swallowtail (single, well-worn))
- submitted documents (individual copies, failed to catch them)
- polyxena (ends years, butterflies are few and almost all - broken)
- colias mirmidone (isolated specimens)
- standard set of whiteflies, nymphalids, and pigeons.
A fairly long search for Tyria jacobaeae yielded only one random specimen, and that outside the examined station
At night, from 22:00 to 00:30, I fished in the forest. Unfortunately, I couldn't get to Dubrava and try it there. The results are interesting in composition and are shown in the photo. I apologize for the quality, I came back very late and had no time to mess around.
Please help me figure out the catch in rows 4-6 (fragments - separate photos). In the bottom row, the five middle scoops are similar to Heliothis viriplaca, but somehow completely out of time...
I was pleased with a couple of Phyllodesma tremulifolium, proserpine and a male Macrothylacia rubi. Everyone arrived within half an hour immediately after turning on the lamp, i.e. still at dusk. Pine hawkmoth and may beetles got sick of it. There are also sickle-wings in the mass. Polar bear (urticae?) there was only one and it was very shabby. When folding the screen, I found a trampled large brown barbel, but it was not possible to understand its species affiliation From the rest of the beetle during the day, only textor (apparently), a couple of hefty goldfish (apparently mariana), and a few ribbed black dead eaters were born.

PS. Cuckoos promise eternal life, and (for me - a discovery), even at night, nightingales on the Oka go crazy... Everything is rapidly fading, the bird cherry tree "burned out" in just 5 days. Lilies of the valley are already blooming in the oak grove.

After the report of Dmitrich, I unbearably wanted to go to the forest, pick up Oximirus, especially since I've never collected it so early. But due to lack of time, we had to visit pine forests near the city, where we did not meet Oximirus... I was unpleasantly surprised by the number of mosquitoes - just a few days ago, only a few flew. And I somehow relaxed and did not take the repellent. Therefore, the fishing turned out to be extreme-with obscenities and the killing of hundreds of Aedes. As a result, in two hours I picked up a series of Phytoecia (cylindrica?)on umbrella leaves. and I found a single-numbered Cortodera femorata. Oximirus was not caught, M. B. it is not here... From the rest, nothing interesting - small weevils, various leaf eaters, males of crestmouthed nutcrackers regularly flew by. I survived only two hours, then shamefully left, unable to withstand the terrible scratching and the beginning of an allergic reaction, so such a small catch.

In the south of the Leningrad region, too, the first mosquitoes appeared, so far a little. It's just that spring has finally arrived in Peter, exhausted by the long, harsh winter and cold April... If on the ninth of May O. carmelita came to the lamp at four o'clock in the morning, then on the last weekend A. tau already flew, in the morning in the bright sun and on the lamp just after dusk - two males. And twenty minutes after them-a female pavonia! I don't remember such warm nights in May...

I always confuse these scoops, can anyone tell me who this is?

For sdi: top row from left: Pheosia gnoma; Notodonta torva; two Pygaera timon. Bottom row - all Heliothis viriplaca scoops.

Everything is clear about khokhlatok, the question about the scoop is exactly all viriplaks or maybe something else?

sort of like the last two viriplaks, and the two on the left are adaucta

May 15, Volga-Akhtuba floodplain. The oaks are almost completely gnawed by all sorts of caterpillars. In the mass of ash and polyxenes, mnemosyne comes across. There is still a small variety of barbels. There are a lot of leaf beetles E. adonidis.

A small report dated 16. V. 2010 with a delay:

Today I went to the garage - I have it almost on top of the Lysogorsky massif of the city of Saratov, right in front of the forest... and it was a sin not to go into the local forest.
Previously, I phoned Nikolai Rodnev and, having arranged a meeting, decided to visit our native expanses together. While I was waiting for Nikolai at the meeting point, which, as they say, cannot be changed, I came across 1 copy each. female Valgus hemipterus and some Otiorhynchus, probably ovatus, all these animals just crawled on the asphalt.
The climb to the garage, especially on hot summer days, always gave me an unforgettable experience, because the slope there is very steep, and the climb is long. Sweating profusely, we climbed our Everest ,and with a warm breeze blowing over us, we made our way to my potato dump. Having opened the door to this "Moria" from the garage, coolness broke out, and I got the most orgasms when I went down to the cellar, it was 5 or even 6 degrees cooler there. We picked up a cart of columbine berries and set off for the woods.

The forest was nice, just gorgeous, everything was blooming, smelling and green ... this idyll was interrupted by fleeting cyclists and poachers collecting lilies of the valley. On the way "Bilbo, there and back" we met:

Calosoma (s. str.) inquisitor ssp. inquisitor (Linnaeus, 1758)
Carabus (s. str.) stscheglowi Mannerheim, 1827
Carabus (Trachycarabus) estreicheri Fischer von Waldheim, 1822
Poecilus (Poecilus) cupreus Linnaeus, 1758
Harpalus (Pseudoophonus) rufipes De Geer, 1774
Dendroxena quadrimaculata (Scopoli, 1772)
Silpha obscura Linnaeus, 1758
Anoplotrupes stercorosus Scriba, 1791
Melolontha hippocastani Fabricius, 1801
Melanotus villosus (Fourcroy, 1785)
Prosternon tessellatum (Linnaeus, 1758)
Selatosomus (Pristilophus) cruciatus (Linnaeus, 1758)
Coccinella (Coccinella) septempunctata Linnaeus, 1758
Otiorhynchus (Cryphiphorus) ligustici (Linnaeus, 1758)

These are the ones that were not aggregated... and so there were scoops, angleflies, there were a lot of different things from beetles, both on leaves, flowers and grasses, and on the ground. Mosquitoes and flies were plaguing the floor, and spiders and bedbugs were running rampant...

Saratov, Vishnevaya; Saratov, Lysogorsky massif, forest, 16. V. 2010 A. S. Sazhnev leg.

List of collected coleoptera:

1. Anaspis (s. str.) sp.
2. Anaspis (s. str.) sp.1
3. Anoplodera (Anoplodera) rufipes ssp. rufipes (Schaller, 1783)
4. Bruchus sp.
5. Cantharis sp.
6. Cassida sp.
7. Cidnopus minutus (Linnaeus, 1758)
8. Dasytes sp.
9. Derocrepis rufipes (Linnaeus, 1758)
10. Drusilla (s. str.) canaliculata (Fabricius, 1787)
11. Elateridae gen. sp.
12. Meligethes sp.
13. Olibrus sp.
14. Orsodacne cerasi (Linnaeus, 1758)
15. Otiorhynchus (Pendragon) ovatus (Linnaeus, 1758)
16. Prosternon tessellatum (Linnaeus, 1758)
17. Tilloidea unifasciata (Fabricius, 1787)
18. Valgus hemipterus (Linnaeus, 1758)
19. Xantholinus (Purrolinus) tricolor (Fabricius, 1787)

Thanks to A. Kovalev and I. Zabaluev for their help in determining the problem.

From what I remember, Nikolai caught Chilocorus bipustulatus (Linnaeus, 1758) and Mesosa (Mesosa) myops (Dalman, 1817).

No, well, people are lucky!!!!! And today we have all day 0 Celsius and heavy snow falls [color=blue]

Nothing, nothing, but then the heat will be trampled down, and we will probably have a hell of a summer again...

I went today to my favorite fishing spots in the vicinity of Yaroslavl. The main goal is to check the soil traps. Beetles ran, walked and flew a lot... But even more striking was the number of mosquitoes - it was only necessary to stop and immediately they were stuck in a solid layer... It's been a long time since I've seen anything like this... It seems to me that I lost quite a lot of blood during this trip, and there were a lot of things in the traps... But it is still to be disassembled and disassembled... On the paths caught 6 pieces of Lamia textor. So Ripper and London will have them at the convention... I promised you... The photo shows a small part of the fees...

really great places! Lamias, nitinsi..

Yes, where there are cool beetles - there are a lot of lumps!

Dicerca furcata

During the week, I went out of town several times to check the effectiveness of anti-tick treatment in health camps and collect ticks from nature for encephalitis infection. Of course, in the camps, beetles were common and isolated, and when collecting ticks in the hearths, we managed to catch beetles...
In total, I found more than 10 species of bark beetles (I haven't looked at them yet), and there were also plenty of short-tailed weevils, leaf beetles, ladybirds, apionids, raspberry beetles, blestyanki, anaspids, and nutcrackers (I don't write any species because they are mostly background ones). From the interesting (infrequent): Acalles sp., Rhyncolus ater, Anthribus nebulosus, Cimberis attelaboides, and a complete list of barbels (almost all new points): Oxymirus cursor, Brachyta interrogationis, Carilia virginea, Dinoptera collaris, Cortodera femorata (3 pcs. of different colors), Alosterna tabacicolor, Molorchus minor, Phytoecia cylindrica, Agapanthia villosoviridescens - the latter went en masse. Surprisingly, I did not find any May beetles, a gray long-whiskered barbel, or both ragi...
From an interesting "scale" (which I did not catch, but noted...) - the "zero" female swallowtail, dawns and mnemosyne flew (!) - a new point of the Red Book species was accidentally discovered.

On Saturday, May 22, Sergey Svetlov (ssacad) came to visit me with his son Anton, who pleasantly surprised me with a genuine and sincere desire to share his father's passion. The main purpose of our meeting was to survey a mixed forest in the vicinity of the village of Melenki, Rostov district, Yaroslavl region, with the hope of repeating my success from 15.05 and finding Oxymirus cursor. Our hope was generally justified, although only three female cursors were collected: 2-on shrunken clippings of sawn pine trunks and one-in the forest. In addition, Rhagium inquisitor, Anastrangalia reyi, Tetrops praeusta, and Agapanthia villosoviridescens were recorded from barbels. Oddly enough, the flowers of mountain ash were completely absent from the usually abundant Molorchus minor in those places. Apart from cursors, nothing particularly interesting was found; perhaps it is only worth noting the false elephant Anthribus nebulosus, collected by Sergey on a lime tree and kindly donated to my benefit (the specimen is quite large, at first I doubted that it was nebulosus, but at home I identified and made sure that it was him). There were very few butterflies (thick-headed blackbirds, raspberries, whiteflies of the genus Pieris), but I noticed a swallowtail.
After seeing Sergei off, my wife and I went for a walk in the quiet streets of the Spaso-Yakovlevsky Monastery in the evening. The walk was also successful from an entomological point of view: two species of bark beetles were collected on spruce logs stored near a private house (it was necessary to determine, and it didn't hurt to show Elizar), a baby Cylister sp., two species of barbels - Asemum striatum and Tetropium fuscum(I personally found this friend for the first time).
On May 23, I again managed to combine the useful with the pleasant: by agreement with a friend, I went to help him with household chores at the dacha in the Borisoglebsky district. I managed to
finish my chores relatively quickly, and instead of having a barbecue picnic, I decided to spend the rest of the day walking in the woods. I had a good walk: I collected one female and three males on the rowan flowers, not only Nivellia sanguinosa (I released another disabled female with three legs in peace), I took two Asemum striatum from the fence of dry spruce logs near the spring. I do not write about the collected trifles, I will also note Lebia cruxminor. I found a mnemosyne point that was not previously known and not specified in the Yaroslavl region CC, which has already flown (I confirm with a photo).

2 Dmitrich

Mnemosyne is a common species throughout its range.

Many thanks to Dmitrich for his hospitality and showing us the place where Oxymirus cursor still lives.The beetle is very funny, you can absolutely accurately distinguish 3 points in its biology, it inhabits dry, but not fungal pine wood, which should be in contact with the ground.The place is warmed up, in the thicket in 30-40 meters from the brood of the beetle is no longer there.And he flies low, low.It is sporadic throughout its range.The thickness of the stump or trunk of a pine tree, in my opinion, does not matter.Males could not be found,they remained a mystery???In the report, Dmitrich forgot to mention a few more barbels, which he took away:Lamia textor L,Xylotrechus rusticus L.

Mnemosyne is a banal species throughout its range.

Stas, you've made a big mistake!

Duc, this... What I know is what I said. For those who can't find a lot of mnemosyne, I send them to search for their biotopes and forage plants. And you will have mnemosyne in large numbers.

I would like to take this opportunity to present a report on my trip to Staraya Pustyn (Arzamas River, Nizhny Novgorod region) on the last weekend of May. Participated: D. Potanin, A. Potanina, P. Ivanov, your humble servant and his wife.

Mnemosyne is a banal species throughout its range.

Duc, who's arguing? I'm not talking about that - I'm talking about the accuracy and completeness of the CC (already published). That's all!

In the report, Dmitrich forgot to mention a few more barbels, which he took away:Lamia textor L,Xylotrechus rusticus L.

Damn it! Precisely! I didn't even notice the elephant...
