European part of Russia

Guarantee even for Batkovsky - if you comb at least until mid-June!

16.11.13-Pskov region, Palkinsky district, d. Rozhkopolye, forest of oaks and birches. I decided to conduct a certain experiment, picking out completely one rotten birch stump. Bottom line in the photo - all the beetles are only from this stump. Carabus cancellatus caught with some kind of emerald tint.

Not a bad and rare species, at least in our country -- Silpha tristis Illiger, 1798.

It was necessary to sow more seeds around the stump...

Then the stump...
Tonight I sowed a little Sasha's (eviforester) mattresses. Total - an excellent pair of Isorhipis melasoides (Laporte de Castelnau 1835).

Sinodendron cylindricum are good, I have never found it here........
The hornbills are all solid Platycerus caraboides and caprea. And even then in May or early June.
And here in the state of imago overwinters. Interesting.

Our antlers are all in the state of imago hibernate... Only in the fall you need to try and manage to find the wood in which they developed. Synodendrons are quite common in aspen forests in June and early July in aspen trunks, where beetles make their mating and egg-laying moves. Although they develop in other deciduous trees - birch, elm (my data) and others.

Not a bad and rare species, at least in our country, came across-Silpha tristis Illiger, 1798.

I quite often come across it under rocks and in rotten stumps...

Strange... It seems that they are quite common in our country. So in 2012, I found one copy right near the Okhotny Ryad metro station (the very center of Moscow). Ceruchus chrysomelinus is much rarer in the Moscow region.

Dim, for example, Vasya Upisov, like dirt, and I have never met finally, and sinodendron caught one in years, for 3 years..

Today 22.11.13. While there are no frosts, and winter is not in a hurry, I decided not to waste time and went to the pine forest of the suburb of Cheryokha. I came across an old clearing planted with young trees. In total, I managed to spend half an hour in the forest before it got dark, and I managed to pick up a lot of interesting beetles for me. In general I am very happy

And who are these long ones?

Honestly, I have no idea, this is the first time I've found them... I will be glad if someone determines.

And the skull belonged to the previous Pskov entomologist?- jok

so to say pioneer..

Throw beetles at them.

And who are these long ones?

I think that this is most likely Boros schneideri (Panzer, 1795), too much like

Yes, they are the same...

And in the family Boridae, there is only one genus with two species (one in Russia and the other in North America).: http://www.zin.ru/Animalia/Coleoptera/rus/boridae.htm
Don't confuse it with anyone else

But really, whose skull is it?

Nikolos: And how did you get Necrodes litoralis?

dogs

This one was found under moss, near a tree stump.

dogs

yes, most likely there was a dog...

I did some digging today..Pskov city outskirts

Danosoma fasciatum (Linnaeus 1758) : if under the pine bark? Very nice nutcracker and a good find in my opinion. Congratulations

vasiliy: thank you for defining the animal, this is the first time I've found it myself.
The nutcracker was found under the peeling bark of a fallen pine tree, at first mistaking it for dead...

In a pancake pret to the people, I saw enough and on Sunday in the forest, pine, the result-2 types of microklopikov, 1 piece of micro R. mordax, 1 type of small. beetles, but stopped, for the reason-under the bark of pine trees there were a lot of all sorts of barbel larvae, next year I would like to catch them, if poluchitso I will go to the ravines to pick up old alders,and in about 4 trips I can say that I have not observed a variety of species yet..

2 shiny flatfish (Dendrophagus crenatus), by the way, are also very good. I can only envy white envy

In the mass under the pine bark collected earlier: http://insectamo.ru/coleo/62-zhuki/silvani...phagus-crenatus I haven't found it there for a long time, alas

Probably, the last report on autumn collections in 2013 (and autumn ends today, and the European part (at least the north and center) is flooded with snow).
I was in St. Petersburg for the Kataev readings from November 24 to 27. Since I arrived on Sunday and there were a couple of hours of daylight left after checking in, I went to Sosnovka Park to take a walk and look for beetles. People were walking in the park, feeding impudent squirrels, but I spat on the opinions of vacationers and began to look for beetles: in stumps, dead wood, under bark and stones. I managed to walk for a little less than an hour, because it started raining and I had to dump. But a few beetles were found:
Pterostichus aethiops-in the stumps of pine-more than 10; one Loricera pilicornis - in the stump; two Patrobus atrorufus under a stone; under the bark of pine - one Nudobius lenthus and many Pytho depressus of different color forms.
The rest of the days were devoted to sitting at Readings, only on Tuesday the lights went out for a few hours, so Yakov Kovalenko and I walked around the LTA park for half an hour. My part of the catch: one beetle Silvanus sp., Corticeus bicolor was found under the bark of a shrunken elm tree, the larvae of sapwort and Aulonium trisulcum were also found there, some kind of lurker (Lathidiidae) was found in the dry roadside of an oak tree, and the remains of weevils (Cossonus parallelepipedus) were found in the comlev hollow of a collapsed poplar. the bug couldn't be found!). Here is the report...
I practically didn't take any photos during the training camp, I only post one, this is an attempt to take a picture of a squirrel…

Tell me, please, what is the name of the plant on which tibialis and bedbugs sit?

Euphorbia. Euphórbia sp.

In my opinion, this is volodushka (Bupleurum) of some kind.
The bug is Dicranocephalus sp. (Stenocephalidae).

Good day to all!
At the weekend I went to the dacha, well, I took a walk along the forest near the railway station. I picked at old tree stumps.. mostly birch and oak trees.
By the way, the street is still +4 , and before NG nothing at all...
I apologize for the photo from my mobile phone

Nikita, you still haven't had any snow there?

Nikita, you still haven't had any snow there?

That's right, and if it fell out, then it's not a dream g.. more than half a day was not delayed, so you will have to celebrate the New Year

And we have snow, but not very much. Now it's melting again - the last three days have been quite strong warming.

01.01.2014 near Saint Petersburg. I was in the forest, picked up chanterelles. I didn't take the net.
Happy New Year to all of you !

Yesterday the photo didn't want to be attached, the connection is bad in the forest!
