Moscow and the Moscow region

Entomagazin asta yes cool We have current manually. I'll post my report soon. A story about how Ivan checked the traps, picked at the stumps and didn't really find anything, and even got his feet wet through. Except for one excelence, nothing really. Well, okay, for more details later, and with a photo, so as not to repeat yourself.

There is nothing to be particularly envious of, because I didn't take almost anything from the flown in collection - there were no new species, and I have a terrible tension with the boxes, this weekend I'm going to the Gardener, maybe I can get something in the entomagazine.

They shouldn't have taken it. On mattresses, you can lay out and exchange later. There are always those who want to come.

Here I am for example the Birch silkwing is very interesting and the cocoonworms are interesting

Nothing to be particularly envious of

That is, you consider them banal?!!! Fluffy cocoonworms?!!!

I already understood, because I received a request for fluffy ones, but now it's too late, and to collect everything in a row in the hope that someone will need..., it's a pity to kill so many butterflies. (AntSkr write when and how to meet for you two fluffy naidu)

Well, if they fly in a bunch???

Well, if they fly in a bunch???

Aha, and all the butterflies that one by one mean not banals?

Is it a pity to kill?
Do you eat meat?

The next of the big beautiful butterflies will fly female peacock eyes small, if anyone needs and I really meet them, I can collect them. Although I will go to the Tambov region for the May holidays (the trip to Akhtuba failed), but they probably fly there too.

Well, that's okay, it's just strange that if you can get a large series of good-looking images, you don't do it.
Do you mind if we visit your area for their tracks?

And then how! But I don't kill animals for meat, and here such beauty can be soaked if it is not needed! Moreover, at home in boxes overcame kozheedy, that's really who you need to wet, if you only know how.

Do you have a lot of them flying around too?
It's like a treasure trove!

This beauty is appreciated by many collectors, and there are many ways to get rid of leatherworms.
You can at least store a small box of mattresses in the freezer.

And how and where you will look for them, I certainly never specifically looked for caterpillars, but apart from grass and raspberry cocoonworm caterpillars, I did not come across others. And so, I explain how to get there - where the oilman is located, you know, the final stop at the minibus (in my opinion, number 43, I go by car, I don't remember exactly). In Neftyaniki itself, I have a dacha almost at the end, if you look from the road, after the dacha plots there is a small forest belt, then on the right there is a burnt field (and it burns regularly, the last time this spring!), if you go to the left you get on the road leading to peat lakes, on the right side of which there is an unburned forest, where silkwings fly. Along willow Road.

On a normal night, 5-10 females arrive, which is interesting, I haven't caught males yet, it's unrealistic to catch them during the day, given their flight, and they didn't meet often. Here on the outskirts of Moscow, where I live for all the time one flew in the distant 95 year.

5-10 females! I've only caught one so far.
Along willow road? Maybe there are caterpillars to see?
I remember well those places, there are still sand pits there, and smoke can suddenly come out of the ground.

There is only one sand pit there, behind the Albatross, but all the quarries are peat. Willows are plentiful, there is a patch of forest, a solid hummock of willows, but you are sure that their caterpillars are active during the day, and not at night... maybe they hide during the day. By the way, there are also a lot of raspberries, and I even saw a bunch of small peacock-eye caterpillars on it in one year. But I've never seen the redhead there.

It is necessary to look for caterpillar nests at the beginning.
But a bunch of small peacock-eye caterpillars is an opportunity to get a good series of both males and females.
Red in my woods flies. I can do your share of fishing.

Thank you, but I caught them in Vidnovsky Park, if of course you catch an extra female, then I am grateful in advance. There is no way to look for caterpillar nests, I am busy at work and at home at the most I can not, today there was a hole in the work so I come off.

People!!!
Who DOESN'T NEED IT!!!
Can someone hook a couple of endromis for me!!!
And then it's so insulting...
Weekends don't coincide with the weather...
Most likely I will miss them this year...

About the weather: can anything interesting fly in this weather over the weekend?

Interesting is unlikely, it makes sense to catch from dusk to 10 pm without the hope of special success.

Orthosia scoops can.
Maybe Cerastis rubricosa, for example.

I can present one male. Write in PM, about the meeting, if you are interested.

Yeah!I totally agree.So I do.Especially if under the order.

to taler: yeah, I got it.

I just got back from Lenkovo. The weather was amazing, and there was no wind. In general, everything flies, crawls, buzzes. Closer to the point, yesterday I went to the river, napi, rumini, io and so on fly. From the catch of Aethalura punctulata, Xanthorhoe biriviata(these generally dofiga was). There are also a lot of gravediggers flying around everywhere. In the evening I caught: Cleora cinctaria (just the sea!), Cerastis leucographa, C. rubricosa, Orthosia cerasi, gothica, incerta, Lithophane socia. Sednya went to the birch forest in search of endromis, which, as always, are not available. Fly, plus what was above, Leptidea sinapis, Celastrina argiolus, Araschnia levana, Pyrgus malvae and semi-dead Archiearis parthenias. Then I went to the okr. dr. Oreshki marshes, there was nothing special, just some long-whiskered green moth swarming over the willow bushes (if anyone knows what kind of species it is, then let us know). I've never seen them in the spring. From the beetle, some aphodia and spangles. Also me ppc as otokovali ticks! I caught 15 pieces on myself!

Caught this weekend in the country. During the day, a lot of everything flew, Celastrina argiolus, dawns, mottled wings, nymphalids that still wintered.
At night, it flew mostly until midnight, here is the actual photo:
  
  
Anticlea derivata - 3 pcs. for 2 nights, Conistra rubiginosa-2 pcs., O. gracilis-4 pcs.

by the way, how often do Acanthocinus aedilis occur in the MO? It's been a long time since I've seen one like this...

We have in the Yaroslavl region more than usual. I can't say for the entire Moscow region (not my "hunting grounds"), but in the Istra district, where my relatives live, and where I periodically raid the forest, it is no less common than in our Yaroslavl region. You need to search in the spring, from the end of April to the end of May, on freshly cut pine trunks and stumps.

Then I went to the okr. dr. Oreshki marshes, there was nothing special, just some long-whiskered green moth swarming over the willow bushes (if anyone knows what kind of species it is, then let us know).

We were just collecting some kind of eriocraniid - it seems that they were just green
. There was a new view for the region - I don't remember what it was, though.

No - Eriocrania has a short sawyere (sometimes very short) - and this is Adela reaumurella, I guess. They just fly in the spring, sometimes in clouds.

Acanthocinus aedilis is common and ubiquitous in MO if suitable pine trees are present.

I've seen it where there aren't any pine trees in the area. How far can it fly?

Like most barbels, it's far enough away. But pine trees are necessary for the formation of "hearths". In general, it can occur if there are suitable conditions (pine stands) and within the city limits.

Yes, exactly it is

Today we went with Solarway to Orekhovo-Zuyevsky district. The longed-for Carabus nitens was not caught in the traps, but a few Carabus Menetrie and one Carabus Arvensis were caught. Ground beetles flew. But the Oximerus barbel has not yet been seen. From the butterflies, we managed to take a couple of Aglia Tau and a few swallowtails (obviously just emerged from pupae), plus some pretty ones from nymphalids and fatheads (this is part of Solarway).

That's right, butterflies are my thing. And I was especially pleased with the capture of Araschnia levana (spring form, essno), Issoria lathonia and Pyrgus malvae

Isn't it a little early for Tau and swallowtails? Is the apple tree already blooming in Orekhovo-Zuyevsky district?
