European part of Russia

Ilya, thank you! How do I get there by public transport?

On an electric train only
Towards Karamysh. Bus stop-O. P. 19 km.
We went today, very successfully fished, there are a lot of things caught-dorcadions, T-shirts and so on. I'll post a report with photos later.

So. I continue my research in the Saratov region. Today we visited an interesting place - Budanov Mountain. Coordinates of the mountain (for Google Maps lovers) - 51°26 '9.35" N 45°47'46.59" E

You can only get to this natural wonder by taking the Saratov-Karamysh electric train.
Start of the journey from the "piece of iron" in the direction of ravines




Gullies of white clay that I initially thought were chalks.





Only here grows a penny large-flowered (Hedysarum grandiflorum), on which I mowed a dozen cool tithius (the type has not yet been determined, but clearly something is not banal).



After looking at the ravines, we move towards the mountain itself. Meet the procession of caterpillars (marching silkworm?)


And also a whole glade of my favorite cardaria draba, there were cool Aulacobaris janthina


There are many steppe vipers on the road


and root-eating crusaders



Swarming of woodworm ants


And finally, here it is, a natural wonder, a flat hill-Budanova Gora



We climb to the top. The climb wasn't easy ... but the view is gorgeous!




On the slopes of the mountain grows an egg-bearing astragalus, and on it came across its monophagus, a beautiful beetle, for which everything was started - Tychius molestus



I hope you enjoyed my short story. See you soon

Oh, I almost forgot, my fees

Ndya. The schedule is inspiring: two trains a day, at 07: 24 and 17: 24, to the O. P. 19 km. drive in 41 minutes.

Russia, 21st century...

Yes, this is normal. We drove like this all the time
In the summer, maybe they will start another one, at 8.36

For me, too, it was normal until there was no cub Seeds =)

And here is whether there is any thread jamshutki to Aleksandrovka... Places are definitely testable, you need to visit!

I am afraid that even if there is a minibus, it will not help - Alexandrovka is very far away there, and it is also separated by another ravine (we call them gullies). There are bushes, snags and vipers down there ...

This is how the grass has grown today,as an amateur in botany, I think that this is one of the types of motherwort.


Along with today's shooting.

So. I continue my research in the Saratov region. Today we visited an interesting place - Budanov Mountain. Coordinates of the mountain (for Google Maps lovers) - 51°26 '9.35" N 45°47'46.59" E

Oh, yeah. = ) Marching silkworms in Russia are only available in the Kaliningrad region!

In the photo -- Malacosoma castrense.

I continue my purposeful study of the Saratov land. Today I went to the vicinity of the village. Jasmine. Coordinates-51°34 '46.70" N 45°50 '58.95" E
The goal was to find a small salt marsh there. Found. Among the interesting finds are Asproparthenis vexata and Sibinia variata (for the first time in the region), as well as some interesting Stenus (I haven't looked at it yet).

You mean just here? I have a friend of a botanist, he is just engaged in a penny shop, he will collect a lot of points, both in the Right Bank and in the Trans-Volga region, Khvalynsk, Lysogorsky district at least...

Mantispid, that's the place you have there!!! Well, in general, a class, a huge forest is wedged right into the city, and around all sorts of ravines, gullies, steppes and forest!

I went to Budanov Mountain =)

Places in the Saratov region are notable, that's for sure!

P. afra is a rare local razve?

P. afra is a rare local razve?

No, I just didn't catch it before=)

We returned with Mikhail from the traditional annual trip to the Astrakhan region. In entomological terms, the trip was almost zero, in the Volgograd region there were no spini or gorgons; for some it was probably too late, for others it was too early. We visited Baskunchak, Dosang, and the lower reaches of Astrakhan. Fishing was more or less good, in Ilovl Mikhail fished fish for an ant, in the lower reaches caught different and in good quantity. On the beetles, too, everything is very poor, in the mass there were only scarabs, water lovers, floaters and crushers; everything is as usual, but unlike previous trips dorkash did not even see. Of the butterflies, I can only mention a massive number of absolutely fresh leghorn (it seemed that they were hatched right next to us), crested aeruginosa and as much as one Hyles zygophili.

By the way -- who catches fish in the Tambov region -- do you have Proterebia afra?

07.05.2013г. Vladimir region, Petushinsky district, district, village Old Pools.
Today I took advantage of the good weather and left for several train stops outside the Moscow region. In principle, nothing particularly interesting except for the discovery of the male Meloe (Meloe) violaceus Marsham, 1802 thanks to this discovery, we can say: the trip paid off . Well, I was unlucky on T-shirts up to this point and that's it. And I was also struck by Callophrys rubi (Linnaeus, 1758), which flew out in a completely wild amount. He brushed them off like mosquitoes
At least I got some air:

In the hope of finding more T-shirts, I repeated my trip to these parts today.
Bottom line: T-shirts didn't find any, even though he'd been grazing like hell in the heat all day in the same place
The usual beetles at this time: Acanthocinus aedilis; Rhagium inquisitor; Rhagium mordax did not take at all because of their obscenity (as always they are full).
Chalcophora mariana has already flown out in a fair amount (I took one for the point).
From the pleasant: I found a pair of Pogonocherus sp. I think on ?Pogonocherus fasciculatus (DeGeer, 1775)? I put it in the "definition"section just in case.
UPD Thanks to Dmitrich (y), my suspicions about the barbel were justified.
This is indeed Pogonocherus fasciculatus (DeGeer, 1775)
A new view for me, however
And there are also very beautiful lizards running around: just like" little dragons".

I haven't seen it yet, maybe somewhere in the south (the border with Saratov) and there is, but there was no information

A small report for the May days in the Pskov region, more precisely 35 km. from Pskov.
I didn't catch much light, but I was pleased with two female pavonias. Some photos of the area and part of the fees.

Many thanks for the photo of leaf beetles (Entomoscelis adonidis (Pallas, 1771))

Many thanks for the photo of leaf beetles (Entomoscelis adonidis (Pallas, 1771))

Is this something rare? There they were in fucking numbers (literally hundreds, but on a small patch) - and only on cruciferous ones. And judging by the name, they should be on the buttercups... Or is it like Thecla betulae among butterflies, which is indifferent to birch, give it rosaceae?

I've never met anyone in Muscovy (this is from myself). Apparently it depends on the region.

with him, the story is rather murky.... the species is quite rare steppe. I know only 1 location in the Tambov region. Development occurs on adonis (which is quite rare in our country) and cruciferous (according to Medvedev-the one that is used for leaf beetles), but...I've only caught it on Adonis. Benkovsky is also only on adonis and even tried to feed cruciferous plants in the gardens, but was refused, and your photos confirm Medvedev's words. It would be interesting to see the egg laying at the cruciflower and there Adonis was in the area?

Interesting! I haven't seen Adonis , but he's probably faded by now...
Tomorrow, perhaps, I'll go there again - I can dial if anyone needs it-maybe I should give them a lecture?..

How many of them are there (clickable):

a faded adonis bush is still unmistakable.
pay attention to the beetles - there are beetles of the same species, but without the black stripe on the ndcr.
please check the presence of mating beetles and egg laying. they are quite large and clearly visible a la the Colorado potato beetle and on what plants.
If you are going to leave , I can throw in material from both Kazakhstan and the Tambov region

I didn't even see so much Coloradsky here Okay: I went to drink beer so as not to get upset

I'm not so familiar with this plant to identify the faded bush =)

I'll pay attention to the stripes, thank you!

I'm definitely not going to start working on beetles as well - I'd like to finish everything with butterflies at last - but I'll pick them up if anyone needs them for business - I'll share them.

when does the plant bloom? faded the same, but without yellow flowers
please look at the eggs and take a picture of the grass
if there is an opportunity, take five beetles for me - I will change it if necessary for a mattress with a micra

Where do they lay their eggs? On the underside of the leaves or something?
This, in theory, should be a bunch of orange (well, or another color) eggs?

I'll take it, of course! But not in exchange - I have to deal with the Moscow micros first. You can take a picture of the mattresses - what can be identified from the photo, I will identify - and what requires cooking-cook it yourself or arrange with someone, here with Bolshakov at least or from ZIN with whom =) But I don't need to send it! ))

on the underside of the leaf, petiole, or trunk.
mattresses will not be photographed - scrap (current arrived and I want to sleep) . let them lie there for now. I myself have no desire to deal with them either, tk with macro and bug to deal with half my life

The main thing is that they are preserved, then I can sort it out=)

They're waiting for you, be Spock
we are responsible for those who were killed (c)

Vasya, I'll bring it to you =)

Thank you, Vlad. Beer with me I now hike, too, not for nothing did I drink it: probably another type of trox took (larger than T. scaber twice) I'll post it in the definition later.
