European part of Russia

And how did you manage to catch them, if it's not a secret? Did you come to the light at dusk?

Yes, that's right, the first one is at 20: 50, the second one is at 21: 05. I caught everything until 23.00 and it flew badly, although the month was very small, calm and when I left it was still +14!

By the way, today at lunch I drove to a small forest near work for an hour. A lot of Lycaena phlaeas and even more tityrus fly, only 2 mnemosyne came into view, polyxene was already garazdo less, 3 lemongrass and 1 Melitaea cinxia. And in the end, I gave a hundred-meter race for the swallowtail over very rough terrain, at the finish of which I still tripped over some root and the swallowtail won by a clear advantage)))

Well, actually a photo of the catch.

What a person in the photo!

... the report author himself .

I decided after work to quickly drive to a pile of logs, see what was happening.....Nothing new flew-ran, but after 18-00 kukuzhesy climbed, caught them for the first time!!!And on the way I came across some wrong T-shirt-is it different from the others??Kukuzhesy ran and disappeared, actively caught on the lower rows of logs-about 19-00 all disappeared, as if on cue.

I came across some wrong T-shirt on the way-is it different from the others??

Great trip! Got a couple of wonderful weevils-Sibinia vittata! I've been looking for this striped charm for a long time and now I've finally found it. http://coleop123.narod.ru/key/curculionina...ia_vittata.jpg) This is a new view, both for me and for the area. Also caught Pleurocleonus quadrivittatus. I was pleased with the very characteristic spikenard Hispa atra L. In addition, I mowed down a bunch of Anthonomus (Anthonomidius) germanicus Dieckmann, 1968, and I am very happy.

Hello everybody!
And near St. Petersburg, at +3C, insects fly very poorly to the light.
The only catch is a duck (eggs are really bigger than chicken!) and half
a moon, which also did not contribute to fishing. In short-failed !
Good luck to you !

On the 25th there was a hot day. I spent the whole day naked to the waist in Lembolovo. Burned. I caught about fifty bees alone. Lots of beetles. Bark beetle flies, elephant, nutcrackers of 10 species, barbels.

This is on the 25th in the afternoon. And he tried to catch the light before that, the nights are very cold. It was one warm night, from the 26th to the 27th, I turned on the lamp, but it was still a lousy year because of the cold spring in general.

And we have +35 in Saratov.
Come visit us!

Babochkisty.....Start catching normal insects already.

Come visit us!

Laugh it out-we'll take it and come

I have a university friend who lives near Volsk. I also remember once in the late 80's calling every other day, telling them how hot it was, how they bathed. So I finally flew. The plane lands in Saratov-rain and +15. I will never forget how I stomped 4 km along the steppe road in the pouring rain. And how wet I was freezing in the front door and waiting for my friend to come home from work

But in the entomological sense, the region is wonderful.

Don't worry, we'll just come and get it

I'm not kidding

26.05 I went to water a tomato and combined the pleasant with the useful) Only the wind of course was terrible!

On May 26 and 27, he visited the border of Tatarstan and the Orenburg region, 350 km away from Kazan. Here is the border between forest and steppe, and you can catch new marginal species for 2 regions at the same time-steppe species for Tatarstan and forest species for Orenburg. The weather was clear, and if it is hot during the day, then it is very cold at night and the climate is continental in comparison with the surroundings of Kazan.



Pseudophilotes bavius, Oeneis tarpeja, and 4-5 species of bighead moth, as well as many moth moth Scotopteryx coarctaria, Phibalapteryx virgata, and Philereme vetulata flew from diaries on steppe slopes.


Such steppe scoops as Mythimna albiradiosa, Sideridis lampra were new to the Republic of Tatarstan from large species



An interesting kind of Cucullia sp.


The western part of Orenburg is poorly studied and such species as Watsonarctia deserta are new to it.


as well as such forest species
as Falcaria lacertinaria, Drepana falcataria, Peridea anceps, Pheosia gnoma, Petrophora chlorosata, Rheumaptera hastata, Minoa murinata, etc.




The places are interesting and there are plans to come here more than once.

yes, this is some kind of garbage, it is soft, apparently not strong enough, so it is so crumpled

On the last plantaginis photo?

On May 30, I checked the soil traps with vinegar on the flooded riverbank for 4 days, changed the vinegar to a brew with beer, let's see what changes in the species composition, and just wandered for a couple of hours along the bank

On June 7, near Oryol, the village of Luzhki
Met golubyanki icarus, argus, argyrognomon, arisii, Osiris, chervontsy unpaired and alcifron. For this time in a very small amount.
Glycerion and pamphylia haylofts flew out, meadow and southern yolks met, already badly battered. For many years there was a large population of myrmidons in this place, but two years ago, in the spring, the broom thickets were burned out and the yolk disappeared.

We went to Voskresenskoye yesterday.
We reached Khlopkov Buhor Mountain (about 4 km south of Voskresenskoye). Perhaps one of the most aesthetic places we've ever been. Magnificent mountains! And they also fished well. There were especially a lot of butterflies (this is because I forgot the envelopes, but if I had taken them, then there were no butterflies, everything is as usual).
I saw 4-5 ascalaphs Libelloides macaronius - KK Sar. region. Here they live almost on the border of their range.

I apologize for my inexperience. How did you search for Catocala sponsa & promisa caterpillars? I'd look it up, too. Thank you.

I was in the village from 6 to 7 years ago, just awful! Until 22: 30, at least something flew, and after it died out in general, but the temperature already fell below 10(( And while I went to get water at the spring, I found a freshly beaten fresh male raspberry cocoonworm in the headlight, which I never held in my hands in my life, that's a shame! And all the meager catch is still in the village in the refrigerator forgot. Maybe this is a bad weekend?

only my experience!!! I collected them in the comlevoy part (up to 1.5-2 m) of large oaks in late May and early June. in the afternoon and late afternoon they sit in the cracks of the bark. moreover, they come across different ages. then you finish feeding the oak tree at home. Last time I collected about 20 geese in a couple of hours. in July, about 10-12 butterflies came out, a few riders and a few pupae did not come out for unknown reasons. I kept everyone together, but in a spacious aquarium, they say they can bite each other and it's better to keep them separate, but I didn't see this.
it is better to immediately pay attention to those places where you have previously seen imagos, but I came across a new place completely by accident. and look at photos of geese on the web to know what you are looking for. their disguise is great, you look at the trunk-you see it-you look at the pocket or jar-you return your eyes to the place, but it is not there and you are looking again go ahead

[quote=AGG, 08.06.2015 22: 57] More often they sit at the ends of branches, in front of a young shoot. It looks something like this:
It's a little late for you to look for them, they've probably pupated already. Better used tau searched

If I was late, it was only a little late. The last time I collected them was on the 20th of may

You are not alone. For example, in the Leningrad region this year there was no spring, just as there is no summer yet.

Yes full zvizdets! On June 9, there are still no mosquitoes on the Karelian Isthmus. This is certainly good, but it is bad that there are no other insects either.
Today I caught Andrena vaga. They usually fly in April-the first half of May. But only in mid-June...

Yes, it seems that a certain thaw is planned on Saturday... let's see.

Thank you very much! Maybe I'll find it again. Imagos come to the world regularly, but I have never seen caterpillars.

God grant it.

And we already have mnemosyne flying off! And in general, some kind of garbage-except for horseflies and there is no one to run after!
