Moscow and the Moscow region

20.06. we visited the Batkovskoe swamp for the first time. Lots of impressions! The main task was to develop "swamp" butterfly species. Despite the comfortable temperature, the swamp itself is terribly stuffy, a lot of mosquitoes and horseflies.
In the mass were Coenonympha hero, but most flew.
Boloria eunomia and Boloria aquilonaris were also quite common, but the former prevailed.
Coenonympha tullia was smaller, all fresh.
Colias palaeno was not patched up in the swamp itself. I caught a single male specimen on the road adjacent to the swamp. Can't figure out why? Years at the end or not caught there?
Aporia crataegi flew everywhere, flew into the swamp.
We managed to catch a few Lasiommata maera on the road.
Also, there were many "nights" in the swamp, but I'm not an expert in this, so I didn't define it.
We walked for about two or three hours. We reached the lake. Small, beautiful there. From there, they went along a clearing to the road.
We met a bird. There is a photo, can someone tell me who it is?

I was recently brought to the page with old reports, and there is Orgyia antiquoides near Moscow (not mine, if anything)

Judging by the route in that report, the photo was most likely taken on the territory of the Yaroslavl region.

This is true, but there are two regions, and the swamp is one!

Svetil 13.04 in Poplar on the pond. Lanestris arrived in the number of about 10 males and 1 female.
One branch. Otherwise, everything is normal. There were no versicolors.
14.04 luminaries in Neftyanik (55.777173, 39.214028). Countless crowds of siversi (managed to grab one female) and nubeculose, 4 male versicolor.
There are a lot of saboteurs in both places.
18.04-Tugolesye (but the night is already cold). A lot of opima, one male versicolor, one sprig, a little siversi. The rest is banal.

Is Orgyia antiquoides a good thing? I've seen a couple of males around here, sitting on the leaves of small oaks.

It was never specified for the MO. But are you sure it's not antiqua?

I'm not sure. Is antiqua good?

This is bullshit that is everywhere.

But now I think-since lamda and interrogations successfully skerked in my swamp, until I brought them out of the tracks, maybe some antiqua in the vicinity are not antiqua at all? True, to do this, antiquoides must feed on cranberries or Chamaedaphne.

Orgyia recens is very likely to occur in O-Zuyevo, and it may also occur in other places. I'm not sure about antiquoides exactly, but I've seen some Antiguas with almost solid-colored wings and a slightly pronounced white spot at the bottom of the upper wings.

Well, at least recens has a remarkable appearance. And here is a clone of antiqua, which if you do not know, then you will not pay attention to.

Tell me, in what biotopes to put glasses on carbuses: coriaceus, arvensis, glabratus, cancellatus, convexus, so that it is not a waste of time and vinegar? I put it in a pine forest, no one came, while nemoralis and once or twice granulatus climb into glasses in the yard in droves.

Right now. Voynovo mountain, very warm, no wind. And a blank screen. That is, even no banal mass, except for only one sickle-wing. No klosterii or other crested flowers for you, no shovel for you... Well, yes: the month (1/3) is bright. Just because he's so naked?

The situation is similar for a Kazakh in the Yegoryevsky district and for me on the outskirts of Moscow in Ukhtomka. Some weird off-season, the weather is perfect, but there is nothing Here and last year there was a similar off-season, and before such failures have never noticed.

Yesterday I was walking in the vicinity of the platform Belopesotskaya Stupinsky district. The off-season is really in full swing: I saw only one small mother-of-pearl, myrmidon also has not yet come out, which is confirmed by the pupa mowed down from the broom. But Egeria's biomass is my homage. However, the May beetles outperformed everyone. In artificial plantings of linden and oak trees on the outskirts of a pine forest, the latter are completely covered with beetles, and when the wind is not strong, you can clearly hear the crunch and fall. Interestingly, linden and elm May neglect. Of the butterflies, I didn't see any interesting non-micra, except that I caught a moth caterpillar on a broom tree, which I accidentally pinned down and therefore threw out, and from memory it looked very similar to Synopsia sociaria. As for micra, I was going to look for reaumurella in the oaks, but two huge trees in a field near the edge of a pine forest did not live up to my expectations: the biotope was completely burned this year, even on the oaks half of the branches died off. But there were several Klimeschia transversella, as well as Pseudotelphusa scalella, Aethes williana and Epinotia thapsiana. But the most interesting find was Dorcadion holosericeum! It is completely unclear how he came to be on the northern bank of the Oka River. Also from beetles collected Cionus scrophulariae and Lyxus ?bardanae. Photos don't load, but you can view them in my VK (https://vk.com/sporozoa) even without registration, if you tap "not now" in the window that pops up when you click on the photo. Can someone at the same time tell me if I correctly identified liksusov.

I have all the butterflies. A standard set of moths, scoops, and tufts. The day before yesterday, a female tau and an ocular hawk moth. Sickle-wings, of course, also exist, but not much.

After midnight, the mass still caught up. Also tau (male), ocular hawk moth and crested birds.

A perfect confirmation that "getting caught" on occasion is not a big problem (even for flightless ones!), and the future depends on the environment. From the Lishnyagskaya point to the Oka (directly to the north), it is almost 50 kilometers, and to its northern shore at Belopesotsky (i.e., to the north-northwest) - 55 kilometers. For the northern border of the range, the shift is considerable, especially for the slider. The find is very interesting.

By the way. Before the rains, I managed to check the stations of polyxena in Lukhovitsky and Kolomna districts, both sexes fly, egg laying is noted, almost all imagos are the freshest. The only swallowtail flew in the Kolomna district. Tau spans are marked in both areas. Before that, on the weekend, the first ausonia (male) was recorded, on the broom caterpillar Dicallomera fascelina (located on the power line east of Beloomut). With the May beetle, so far everything seems to be modest, on young oaks it is most popular,but not so much. In the Lukhovitsky district (this is back in April, when the flood itself was), two osmoderm larvae were noted.

I was in Neftyanik, you don't expect anything interesting anymore, everything is within the normal range. There are very few scoops and moths at night. The screen was filled with almost nothing but bombycoids, 15 species of crested whales, 4 species of hawkmoth, and the massed volnyanka padibunda. There are a lot of tau in the forest, but everything is very flying. The Myrmidons came out this morning, not even yesterday

So that's where all the butterflies of the Moscow region have accumulated)))

Today in Orekhovo-Zuyev, right on the square in the city center, I found a dry Valgus-a hemipterus. To be honest, I was amazed by the find, I never thought that they were here. No one knows where to look for live specimens now, otherwise this one fell apart right in your hands. Will they survive to see the umbelliferous blooms?

Look at the rowan flowers.

May 19, Voynovo-Gora, Moscow region.

This is Litophane lamda and the freshest super-late Orthosia incerta?
If so, it's interesting... Lyamda on Voinovo-Gora? It's swampy, and there don't seem to be any swamps there.

Yes, lambda and insert. Inserts two days ago in Neftyanik were in a small amount very fresh. There were also a few pieces of fresh licorice hirtarii In general, the year is dumb, something comes out on time, something with a delay.

Yes, on Voinovaya Street, too, fresh khirtarii were on May 19. And on May 16 in Luzhki - Orthosia miniosa.

I wonder what Lyamda is doing on Voinovo-gora. There don't seem to be any swamps there. And where there are swamps - there it was not in April (Poplar, Oilman). Apparently, on April 13-14, when I was fishing there, it hadn't taken off yet.

In what month do oaks start flowing to look for bronzes on sochniki?

In this! But you shouldn't have any spices, except, perhaps, metallica, in theory, because we have just flown the first affinis. So, probably, the time you are interested in is mid-June.

Photos are being uploaded again, and in honor of this, I will illustrate the above report on Belopesotskaya, as well as a Sunday trip to Pushchino.

Belopesotsky:
Lyxus bardanae
Cionus scrophulariae
Dorcadion holosericeum
Pseudotelphusa scalella
Klimeschia transversella
Epinotia thapsiana

Pushchino:
Grapholita compositella
Grapholita coronillana
Grapholita nigrilineana
Pancalia leuwenhoekella
Dichomeris ustalella
Phytometra viridaria
Anemone sylvestris

Tell me, in what biotope lives Carabus coriaceus, where to put traps?

In all. Shaded areas, forests, parks, gardens, cottages.
In Moldova - the most popular type. Loves hiding places, rubble, and all sorts of wild places.
It's easier to type with your hands.

Well, this is in Moldova, but in the Moscow Region it is by no means the first species in terms of occurrence among ground beetles.

Tell me, in what biotope lives Carabus coriaceus, where to put traps?

Mixed forests and neglected parks with thick bedding and an abundance of mouse holes. But they can get caught anywhere. this year, one of them fell into a trap that was standing in a frozen gray swamp on the bank of a small river, along with a bunch of C. granulatus and C. nemoralis

C. coriaceus.

Behind the Red Lighthouse of the Vladimir region. got trapped (with glabratus, by the way), there is a dry pine forest on the sands. Only one copy each, but there were a maximum of a dozen traps for no more than three nights.

In an old mixed forest (with a predominance of pine and spruce, in solid blueberry), I got caught in the Odintsovo district of the Moscow Region (for platf. Chapayevka, in the vicinity of St. Herzen), also lived with glabratus, but that was about forty years ago.

I got caught in the Stupinsky district of the Moscow Region in Dubrava on the right side of the railway after the Velyaminovo platform (photo on insectamo.ru).

Got caught in the Serpukhov district in the vicinity of the village. Luzhki, near the border of the PTZ from the cemetery (dry pine forest on the sands) (photo on insectamo.ru).

18maya got (and first saw) a female Rhamphomyia marginata.
South of Podolsk, on the NW edge of a birch forest with admixtures of linden, oak, other species and hazel, near a large field mown in autumn, locally-young aspens with buttercups and nettles along the edge of the forest.
Males are unremarkable among this infernal abundance of species of the genus, so they were not noticed. For a long time I wanted to get this species, but the area was depressing for the "green" - "WED band zap.Europe", there are in the Baltic States, and some other points in that region.


in the fall, the one-time coriaceus discussed above was also nearby. - in the fall, they directly go out to the fields near the forests, - the experience is not enough.random finds.

Den tvåtonen. Det rolex kopia är så rolex replica varmt nu. Men hur kunde det inte vara? De säger att det tar ungefär två decennier för en stilcykel att fullborda sin revolution, och eftersom saker tenderar att hända lite långsammare i Schweiz, verkar det som om klockindustrin är i tid att njuta av en renässansstil på mitten av åttiotalet när det gäller alla saker tvåfärgad eller tvåfärgad (kallas vanligtvis "bico" av de stiliga killarna). Tudor verkar leda trendkurvan med inte en, inte två utan tre vakuumlindade tvåfärgade klockor som introducerades under de senaste 18 månaderna: 2018: s Black Bay S & G-dykare (särskilt med champagne-urtavlan), Nero Bay Chronograph S&G replica rolex presenterades på Baselworld i mars (läs Bilals intryck här), och den nya Black Bay S&G 36 eller 41mm på tvåfärgad femtrådsrem presenterades också i år, även om det inte var upp till nyligen Couture-mässan i Las Vegas, där vi fick möjlighet att träna.

Hurray! Caught marmorata in the vicinity of OZ, near the restaurant "Hunter". There is a very nice oak grove right on the bank of the Klyazma River. Fiberi is there any point in looking there now?

Can I get coordinates and/or photos of the oak grove? I would like to compare it with the Warrior Mountain.

I don't know much about the coordinate system, and it's hard to send photos to the forum. But it's right across from the Okhotnik restaurant, so you can see it right away. Go through it to the bank of the Klyazma.

Tell me, in what biotope lives Carabus coriaceus, where to put traps?

In the Domodedovo district in large numbers annually meet in a mixed forest, which is dominated by spruce and birch. In some places, you can use your hands to collect them at night in areas lit by lanterns. At least this was the case in 2014-2018.
