Moscow and the Moscow region

Polovili on my generator with Gennady at the village of Zhukovo Ramenskoye district of the Moscow region.

Separately, I am glad that my generator started up from poltychka, even though I didn't preserve it for the winter-I didn't even drain the gasoline. 4,5 thousand rubles, no service - and plows like new ~

List of types:

Elachistidae
Semioscopis avellanella

Drepanidae
Achlya flavicornis

Geometridae
Phigalia pilosaria
Apocheima hispidaria
Lycia pomonaria

Noctuidae
Xylena vetusta
Conistra vaccinii
Eupsilia transversa (много)
Anorthoa munda
Orthosia incerta
Orthosia gothica

How long does he have left?

How long does he have left?

Yes poh, die - the same buy )))

Horntail seems to be a good one-from the hardwoods.

Tremex fuscicornis Fabricius, 1787 (birch) this is if I'm not mistaken.

Andrey, dead eater Oiceoptoma thoracica (Linnaeus, 1758)

Ground beetle in the last photo in my opinion Philorhizus quadrisignatus (Dejean, 1825)

Ground beetle in the last photo, I think Philorhizus quadrisignatus (Dejean, 1825)

Ilya, similar to Dromius quadrimaculatus (L., 1758)

  
Well, not much of my morning photo session,so to speak studio shooting on the balcony, and testing new photographic equipment.

What kind of lens do you have?

Moscow region, Leninsky district, Vidnovsky forest Park, 16.04.2012.
On the third truly warm spring day, I finally managed to escape for a walk. Unlike the city, there is still plenty of snow in the forest, but it is melting very actively, as evidenced by the rapid flood, which is obviously the strongest in recent years.

Of the lepidoptera encountered:


Aglais io
Nymphalis vaualbum
Nymphalis xanthomelas
Polygonia c-album
Gonepteryx rhamni
Archiearis parthenias
Boudinotiana notha
Lycia hirtaria
Orthosia incerta

Yesterday afternoon I decided to take my ass off the computer

Well, you have your dinners, Vasily...

Well, you have your dinners, Vasily...

Lunch is like lunch...... "After lunch" means afternoon

Moscow city, Izmailovsky Park. 15.IV.2012.
The snow cover is solid (except for the southern edge, which faces the highway). Enthusiasts), thawed only in some places around the trees, but the melting is intense, there are many streams, there is a lot of water under the snow. Humidity is very high, fog swirls here and there, cloudy, entomofauna is almost at zero. But the birds are yelling - a full forest, there will be someone to register insects when they appear.

Photo report for 16. IV. 2012. Mountains. Moscow, Victory Park and zap. the side of Minskaya Street opposite it.
The snow was almost completely gone, but the ground wasn't dry yet.
In addition to what is shown in the photo, a span of urticaria is marked. Not marked from the standard complex: vesennitsy (in general, there I know only parthenias, and then as a small number), io, polychloros (in recent years generally rare).
Objects in the images don't repeat themselves.
Of the nocturnal ones, the females in the images are 6736, 6738, 6739, and 6752; the rest are males.
The weather is moderately overcast, the sun disappeared in the morning and began to show again only in the evening.

And in the fog, elusively, lanestris fly by,
There is a mysterious someone wandering, and a net leads through the fog.
People are afraid of this miracle and are afraid to walk in the parks!

Ground beetle Carabus (Archicarabus) nemoralis Muller, 1764 ubiquitous has already emerged.
By the way: I see that the former banal Mourner is not in anyone's reports. I look myself where I've always been before: no, for the life of me! Although the time is right now. Apparently it really disappeared

Snapshot IMG_6681.jpg Is this Alsophila aescularia,or am I wrong?
Although it is similar to Semioscopis avellanella.

100% non-aescularia, the fringe of the forewing is completely different, not to mention the pattern. And the second option is very likely, but it would be better to ask Proklov. I didn't take the copy. In general, I have noticed this butterfly in Izmailovsky Park before (although not from the Entuziastov Highway, but to the north, in the southern part of the Serebryanka River valley).

6681 is Semioscopis avellanella (Elachistidae)=)

to A. Y. Elez: I wonder where and under what circumstances (where they sat/flew, how they behaved, etc.) a couple of copulating xanthomelas were found? Somehow I don't come across nymphalines in copula...

PS: Today in ocd. The first A. cardamines and C. argiolus were recorded in Kharkiv.

and the bodysuit?

And this is them on camera, specially worked

I also pointed out that the objects in the images are not repeated.

Well, I didn't read that carefully...

Thank you so much for your comments! YYY, maybe I'm the only one so unlucky?.. I didn't see any of them. I wonder what will happen if you scare them away? Haven't tried it?

What about other nymphalines? io is there, c-album... didn't get caught?

This is not one pair, but two. I also pointed out that the objects in the images are not repeated. They are sitting in the middle of an uncut field on the old, flat grass, the sun weakly breaking through the clouds. The place they chose was the sunniest and warmest possible: nearby-a forest belt along Starovolynskaya Street, the wind from the side of the street, the forest belt just blocked this edge of the field from the wind, and the grass provided a dry litter (the ground is cold and wet, on dirt roads - impassable mud). Two pairs side by side, no more than three meters apart. Therefore, both images are marked with the same time, up to a minute. Xanthomelas have been observed mating in the soil (on weak fresh grass) on a slope. Always at the bottom, but never on the plants. The pose is always like this-in a normal landing, with folded wings. I've never seen them do this lying on their sides, like lemongrass plants (which often lie down in the open when the weather isn't warm enough).

I didn't try to scare them, but I took one pair in my hands after shooting (to see if it was safe), then put it back. There was no reaction to this, the butterflies did not uncouple and absolutely did not rip.
About io and c-album - I don't remember. If I did, I've already forgotten...

Why not? Vasily, special order specialist. I saw a mourner on Sunday, flew past the window of my apartment

In our childhood, the beginning. 70s, daytime peacock eye and xanthomelas are the rarest butterflies ! Now there are also very few urticaria.

Svyatoslav! In my opinion, it fits well, even if it's not Mark. In general, everyone has very good photos, some are generally special, there is everything, and a well-chosen place ( A. Y. Elez - ladybug), and a harmoniously blurred background ( Arunas-crested), and razor-sharp focus (Wise snake-praying mantis), etc. To assess the real possibility of technology, at such small magnifications, a great specialist can do.

Yes, I'm not saying that it doesn't agree just curious

cool, cool! even the females are there, ehh..

Mozzhinka (near Zvenigorod), the last three nights. Nice, but nothing special.

Many Lycia hirtaria; Agriopis marginaria; Agriopis leucophaearia; quite Achlya flavicornis; Scoliopteryx libatrix; Lithophane consocia, Orthosia gothica; Anorthoa munda. Eupsila transversa a lot.
I haven't identified two scoops and one micra yet.

Endromisyyy! No response.

And Kotbegemot and Gennadich catch lanestris on the peat bogs. The Lepidopterist was also going to join them today. In Moscow, only the usual bistons, hispidariums and sextons (the rest of orthoses, cans and similar banals can not be mentioned), although the number is off the scale...

Philip, can I have a photo of Agriopis leucophaearia?
The endromises will fly in a week and a half, when the birch buds begin to bloom.

Just now, on a combined light source-2 white fluorescent tubes + 1 - black (8 W), Moscow, VAO, Ivanovskoe district, from the balcony of the 8th floor.
To put it mildly, unexpectedly
Alsophila aescularia

And no more butterflies
