Everything crashes earlier than usual. L. dumi will also fly at this rate this year in August.

3.06.2019 made a galloping inspection of the south of the Moscow region. The polyxena dot in the northern vicinity of Dedinov (in the Lukhovitsy city district, formerly Lukhovitsy district) is not just alive, but has already turned into an ellipsis at least one and a half kilometers long, judging by the marked caterpillars of various ages. A male Sinodendron cylindricum was also recorded in the same places.

A polyxena dot (tracks marked) was also found in the Kolomenskoye urban District, formerly Kolomenskoye district.

Photos of the selected item are available.

This is right on the script of an unforgettable 1995. Then it flew along the back of the Meadows-approximately behind the church, approximately from the kindergarten line along the plots and then to the edge of the massif. Matronula.

I just found an apollo station in the Orekhovo-Zuyevsky district, a lot of them, but only males so far, which is not surprising-on June 8! And in the morning I was in the swamp at Gennadich's, caught a singe, this year they are massive, but the swamp is dumb, it is very difficult to catch. At night the dominuli had already flown and even the female furcula had come

Do not share whether in PM? I can even promise not to catch him there, but only to take pictures.

Meanwhile, a different banal micra is flying to Pestovo

Lyonetia padifoliella



Brachmia inornatella



Mompha terminella

The weekend before last in the Lukhovitsky district: after a few years of break (although I didn't try on purpose - I was already too lazy), I caught Stenolophus skrimschiranus again. First found Thamiocolus nubeculosus. There were a lot of thistles flying around the garden and for some reason two egeria trees-I'd only seen them in the woods before, and much later than mid-May. Bedstraw hawks feed on flowers at dusk.
Today I decided to shine a light - as a result, the victims were 2 Dryops, 1 strange tentacle, 4 Leiopus (I'll give it to good hands), Aulonium trisulcum, 2 Colon, 1 Catops, 1 Mycetophagus (I don't know yet), 1 Bagous, 2 strange grinders. From butterflies, from what I remember:plum cocoonworms, purple dippers, hawk moth eyes, odorous woodworms. I didn't take these, because everyone probably already has them. Well, a bunch of willow volnyanok, mint-nettle dippers (figure it out for yourself), the same dippers, but yellow...I took Eupithecia innotata, or a person who looks very similar to it-maybe someone needs it for a point.

This is probably SNT pos. Poplar ! Gennadich has a dacha there. So there is a nearby forest (just outside the village) in a lowland, swampy, but apparently not an old swamp . Apparently there is a log flying.

The soul could not stand the strain-exhausted by stories about Apollons near Moscow, I went for a walk in the forest at 32 degrees. I didn't find it - as expected, although there were plenty of cleanings and harees. But hawthorns and myrmidons fly with might and main. I found fresh oyster mushrooms on a fallen oak tree and managed to catch 2 black-headed Triplax out of 4-the speed test failed. I caught a glimpse of an Agrilus on a broom tree, a bright-spotted splinter under the oak bark. I went to the road and looked at the old oaks that were dead from the fire. I noticed a long, scurrying, wobbling beetle - hooray, Nemozoma! Greedily caught, " no, not Nemozoma. It turns out that this is how Colydium runs! It's good. But I never saw Apollonov.

Under Kasimov apollo has not yet flown. Although the station is degraded and could simply not be seen with a superficial examination. For some reason, C. paleno this year I meet only females, but they are scattered throughout the forest. I didn't find any males even directly on the pigeon house. Camilla flew, the first generation myrmidons are almost out of years, served and lay eggs on plums... Most years are poorer than those of sdi: there are no dominulas, phages and cocoonworms, crested birds are in a limited assortment, and willow volnyanki are isolated. True, the lamp was poor, the DRL-ka was covered, and there was nothing to replace it with.

But in the Taldomsky district, the 8th numbers of C. palaeno were only in the form of males of varying degrees of freshness.

M. O., Orekhovo-Zuyevsky district, Poplar 6-8. 06. 2019
Went on the 6th to the swamp behind the sphagnum. and there they fly with all their might and main. Males and females are smaller, but running after them is not really possible to break your legs, just stand and wait for them to fly by.

Then Seryoga Didenko called and offered to go for a log in Tugolesye, but in the end he caught it in Poplar.
About Apollo, all the photos were taken in nature, although I had to run after him in 37 degree heat, but it was worth it. Do not ask about the point and do not write to your personal account, please.





It's on the light in Poplar. Cosmopterix orichalcea ?

Cosmopterix - most likely orichalcea, but it is unfortunately worn at the base of the wings. If there's a big shiny spot, you're right.

Apollons near Moscow - they are like extraterrestrials, shown only to the enlightened... I'm still unworthy, and I drink less and less...

So maybe that's what it's all about? Gennady and I do not limit ourselves as much as we want, we drink as much as we want, as a result, he was even able to photograph the Apollo females at the new station.

Sergey, what time of night did dominula arrive?

Fragmentary news on the Ministry of Defense for the first half of this week.

In the Lukhovitsky district, both sexes of Rhagium sycophanta are used for bait at a point in the vicinity of Dedinov; in general, its harvest this season at this point is fair. It's still off-season for bronzes, even for baits-zero points. Phymatopus hecta has been singly recorded. It makes no sense to check the stations of polyxena (in general, the caterpillars there this season were numerous on a large total area, but the latter should have pupated by last weekend). In the previous report on this point, I forgot to indicate that the bait was taken by a few Plagionotus detritus, Protaetia lugubris, and a few Protaetia fieberi and Cetonia aurata (these species did not come in the last inter-verification interval).

In the Yegoryevsky district, the apollo habitat has been confirmed and increased in total (due to the discovery of a new site very close to the old one these days) to 2.6 km in length. So far, only males (few in number) - either the freshest, or almost. A completely fresh female zorka, the freshest adippe and aglaja (only males are reliable) were found (on a new site). Xanthomelas is common. Only 1 copy is marked. Cetonia aurata.

In the Orekhovo-Zuyevsky district, the apollo site was confirmed (males are few, females are rare, the station is really almost hungry for adults at the moment, and they clearly need to fly somewhere to feed), one specimen was found. Chrysolina sanguinolenta and one fresh male jurtina. Xanthomelas is common. Presumably 1 copy. Cetonia aurata in flight. Males of argus and alciphron pigeons are common (despite the fact that both sexes of these species are common three kilometers south of the point). Single-winged myrmidons of both sexes (females are slightly more preserved).

In the Lukhovitsky district in the east. in the vicinity of Beloomut (examined in the evening), there are no more polixena caterpillars; one male hawthorn moth and a few lineola, britomartis, and athalia were recorded; one female Sinodendron cylindricum was recorded.

Moths of immorata and atomaria, fresh urticaria, broken burdock, and so on. Banals seemed to be everywhere.

M. O., Ramenskiy district, Zhukovo 12.06.2019, Cucullia chamomillae caterpillars were found in sufficient quantity on a daisy similar to dill (most likely odorless Tripleurospermum inodorum), I mowed about half an hour, 18 pieces of different ages.




So mow on this plant maybe and you will be lucky.

Fragmentary news on the Ministry of Defense for the first half of this week.

Have you ever seen a wild hawthorn tree in MO? (there will be no landings). I still can't find it.

Yesterday in Pestovo, in a clearing in the middle of a forest that is not even broad-leaved with the prefix " elovo -", I came across such a gift:



Gift wrapper:



And a supplement in the form of Olindia schumacherana

Hello everyone. Suggest a place in the Moscow region that can be reached by train in any direction, then from the station you can take a bus.
I would like a quiet place where you can stand in two tents (food with a colleague) for the night, and during the day mow in a mixed grass meadow and a pond in the vicinity, so that dragonfly larvae can be collected, and near-water animals.
The main wish is that this is not a protected area and that the fine for the tent does not have to be paid.

On June 16, in the evening, during a business trip, I accidentally managed to look under the Lishnyagi for a minute. I noticed on the main hump, below it on the slope and even more on the shore itself an abundance of nigricornis and very numerous mating. The females are fresh, while the males are only a few fresh ones, most of them are flown.

Last week, I collected a fairly fresh false mottle in my house. What is it called - not nigricornis? I'll put it in good hands if necessary.

Yesterday I went to Tugolesye for paleno. The vicinity of the station, as well as a dry section of the clearing that crosses the railway and the swamp, were colonized by didyms in large quantities:





Aurelia-not Aurelia?




The first thing I did was go to the northern swamp, where sinenos were supposed to fly, or even eunomies might stay. But they weren't there at all - was it because butterflies are now a hundred times easier to find in this swamp than water?





The haymakers didn't want to hang out in the general pile, and they were too lazy to chase them:




I mowed down the Argyroploce lediana leaf wrapper from the rosemary.




On the way back, in a damp place in the forest, I came across a mottled tree that was not the first freshness, as a hint that it was too late to look for May-June species. And it would be fine minos - according to the rear wings, which are visible in the first photo, it comes out osterodensis! And what was she doing there?




A chervonets was found nearby:



I decided to check if there was a singe in the swamp next to the railway, on a dry section of the clearing I came across Menesia bipunctata and some Ampedus, and on the outskirts of the swamp - morpheus:







But there was no sign of singe in the swamp, either. It was only when I had already decided to go back to the station that a psychotic female (unless of course it was myrmidon) flew towards me from the dry part of the clearing, and then some sluggish male who flew worse than a hawthorn. That's what I caught.

Have you ever seen a wild hawthorn tree in MO? (there will be no landings). I still can't find it.

As far as I know, it is considered that initially there are no wild autochthonous hawthorn species in the Moscow region. Blood-red hawthorn (C. sanguinea) is most widely distributed, especially in the south of the Moscow region (Chekhov district and along the Oka River to the east), but it is considered to have run wild from plantings, the western border of natural populations passes through the Vladimir and Ryazan regions and further far to the east, it is a Euro-Siberian species that prefers woodlands and forest-steppe. Less common is C. monogina, a Western European forest species, 100% introduced. Both types are available in parks in Moscow, for example, in Maryino. Well, the whole range of other European, Mediterranean and American types and garden forms in cultivated plantings. So if you need an elephant from the hawthorn in the north-west of the range, you need to look in the south of the Vladimir, Ryazan and Nizhny Novgorod regions.

Thanks! The bug I'm interested in is listed for the MO, but I can't find it yet.

Ilya. and what "elephant"?

Anthonomus pedicularis natural

This is right on the script of an unforgettable 1995. Then it flew along the back of the Meadows-approximately behind the church, approximately from the kindergarten line along the plots and then to the edge of the massif. And along the glade of the power line along the zap. border of the PTZ (within 1 km from the corner of the fence to the north), a matronula flew.

Today, on the eastern border of the PTZ(forest glades in the district of d. Springs) observed P. matronula. Startled out of the grass and she went high into the oak crown. So unfortunately, there is no documentary confirmation.

Today I visited a point not far from the Oilman and mowed it down.
Here's what they found

Mowed on a plant resembling goldenrod or Sept.

Cucullia asteris to figs of different ages


Not perceptible Cucullia gnaphalii these are much smaller, but I found a dozen.

You don't have to drive much now, but there are some small things to tell who needs to be saved.

In Moscow, from Victory Park to the west – where the most floodplain of Setuni and the part of the meadow closest to Minskaya Street was razed (after removing the stands about the reserve and bans and occasionally replacing one stand with the end date of work with another), and the rest of the meadow was flooded in the spring-the pigeons icarus, dispar and argiades (male)definitely survived: yesterday, the second generations were marked, and argiades was marked five times in a few minutes, which was unthinkable in former times (previously, the maximum for the entire second generation was three males per season, not per excursion, but the first generation was always unique, and the third was massive). Of the most interesting (above the usual), alexis was not marked (in fact, its stations were most affected by earthworks). Cleaning became less, but the milkweed spread very strongly (by the way, the milkweed hawk moth was once removed from the caterpillars from there). Ilia is marked on the span; this season I come across (maybe just by chance) both in Moscow, and in the region, and in other nearby regions, almost entirely yellow uniforms.

In the hawthorn (which is mentioned here) I don't know much about it, but I didn't come across it in the wild (at least, I don't remember it), and in the anthropogenic one - in a rampart; here near the metro station "Minskaya", in my opinion, there are two species this time, along the edge of the forest belt at the beginning of Starovolynskaya Street. Photos are available, but what to no avail. True, there used to be villages there (which I personally found), so this find is hardly interesting (there is an apple tree growing there, and nearby there are garden strawberries, plums, cherries, strawberries, pears, gooseberries, both currants, sea buckthorn, raspberries and, of course, horseradish). However, it is quite possible that the "elephant" in the MO is listed because the anthropogenic history of hawthorn in our region does not bother him. By the way, anyone who goes to TSHA Park to crush the night, that hawthorn there just saw enough.

In Moscow, on Dmitry Ulyanov Street at the gas station opposite the Darwin Museum, a female poplar ribbon fly was recently recorded, not fresh,but not torn.

The other day I rechecked the Apollo station in the Yegoryevsky district, both sexes are not numerous, there are more males, the females are all fresh, the males are also occasionally fresh. A single bedstraw hawk moth was recorded on Smolevka (where it has not yet faded).

June 22 on the same meadow to zap. from Victory Park and the metro station "Minskaya" marked flown male Amanda and the freshest female argiada. Other things are completely banal. But of the pigeons, before the violation and partial destruction of the station of the usual ones on it, alexis and virgaureae have not yet been noted.

Here, I flew to the light of the Moscow Region, Tuchkovo, 22.06.2019

I also got lucky with her in Pestovo recently) I wonder if it is being settled from the east, or if the degradation of local biotopes due to bark beetles and tornadoes contributed to it?

Settlement is possible in principle, but in this case, most likely, it is a local increase in population. Biotopically, why shouldn't the species be there? The abundance of biotopes is not a guarantee of the presence of a species, but a sufficient reason not to be limited to the version of settlement. I wouldn't be surprised if this species is discovered under Staraya Ruza, where I've toured more than once over the past half-century, and there are plenty of suitable stations there. It is hardly necessary to underestimate its capabilities (both in terms of spreading and manifesting "waves of life").

And, by the way, Lake Zabolotskoye, in the south-east. in the vicinity of which a fairly dense population was found at one time, it is no longer the east, but the north of the Moscow Region. The conditions there at the time of discovery of the species (we were there with the late V. P. Volkov and T. insectamo, whose collections the last CC of the Ministry of Defense mistakenly attributed to T. Gumenyuk) are the consequences of a violation (!) of the biotope due to a noticeable change in the hydrological regime. Further, in the Ministry of Defense, the species is clearly not necessarily "confined to old coniferous-broad-leaved and broad-leaved forests" and "intact (!) damp clearings" (as, say, it is noted in the CC of the Tula region), which are out of the question in middle-aged or young woodlands and in meadowsweet-nettle-willow meadows of the specified station it couldn't be.

Today I visited a point not far from the Oilman and mowed it down.

Well, it's not close at all. Probably 8 kilometers from the Oilman..This is SNT Maisky.or an Albatross..In the direction of Shatura. The places are painfully familiar. Forest fires.. along the highway.

Today, a friend of mine in Korolev accidentally caught a female Prionus coriarius. One MONTH earlier than the usual deadlines for the Moscow region. Well, if you compare it with abnormally warm years, for 15 days, according to my data. Something is wrong in the Kingdom of Denmark...
