Moscow and the Moscow region

Moscow Region, Sergiev Posad district, Zolototilovo village, September 22-23
, Nycteola siculana and
Costaconvexa polygrammata
Correct if not so.

In MO - N. svecicus.

Female mantises were caught,but released, due to pregnancy, many times on sunny days of prshl. weeks,I haven't seen them before at all.

Never mind, the pregnancy will end sometime, and after giving birth, perhaps, the pity for insects will decrease...

Intuitively-female.

Moscow region, Leninsky district, Vidnovsky Forest Park-Dydyldino village area-Pugovichino village area, 28.09.2012.

Today was probably the last truly warm day of the year, so I didn't miss the opportunity to take a walk near the house. Indeed, the weather was very comfortable, the only unpleasant factor was a relatively strong gusty wind. There were quite a lot of butterflies flying, and in the end, they were met:

Lycaenidae:
Lycaena dispar
Lycaena phaleas
Aricia artaxerxes
Polyommatus icarus

Nymphalidae:
Issoria lathonia
Aglais io
Nymphalis xanthomelas
Polygonia c-album

Pieridae:
Colias hyale
Gonepteryx rhamni
Pieris napi
Pieris rapae
Pontia edusa

Geometridae:
Epirrita autumnata

Noctuidae:
Helicoverpa armigera
Macdunnoughia confusa

I haven't been here in a while, sorry
Jokes are jokes, and in the Moscow region Ptilophora plumigera (Denis & Schiffermuller, 1775) has already flown. Now on a balcony at itself the male zalovil.
By the way: in Zheleznodorozhny for the first time I catch for some reason

Well, I have the first one.... On the balcony, at home. I've never been there. Smoke out called......

No one is going to visit TSHA Park in the near future?
I wanted to keep you company.

In Zvenigorod already from the tenth of September flew.

This year, quite a lot of Larerannis orthogrammaria females are found
Today in MO, Mytishchi, on the linden
trees of Larerannis orthogrammaria - about 15 females were found, and only one male was found.
Operophtera brumata 2 females and a dozen males
Operophtera fagata - many males
Erannis defoliaria - few males (up to 5)
Epirrita autumnata (paul didn't look)

I took a walk today in Timiryazevsky Park (Moscow)
In quantitative terms, there are not enough animals. Background view-Sciurus vulgaris.
Nevertheless, it was found:
Operophtera brumata-males as usual, females 4 specimens. on birches and oaks.
Operophtera fagata-there are very few males, the female is alone on a birch tree.
Ptilophora plumigera - in general, it is decent for both sexes, but they do not sit openly; you need to look for cracks in the bark.
Erannis defoliaria - 2 males and 7 females on birches, oaks and maples.
Larerannis orthogrammaria-males are few-barely a dozen, females-2 on oaks and 1 on maple (in mating).

Sangae: Have you seen any Carabus nemoralis???

I didn't get caught. Of the beetles, no one came across by accident at all, and they didn't specifically search for them - the wrong conditions and tasks.
The goal was to find "wingless" female moths, which was successful.
This wingless fraternity is again unusually numerous.
Yesterday in Mytishchi (MO) again about 15 females of Larerannis orthogrammaria on lime trees.
Today
, there are about a dozen females in TLCA: Larerannis orthogrammaria (on maples and oaks),
Operophtera brumata-I don't remember... like 4 copies (on oaks, birches and for some reason, on pine),
Operophtera fagata-1 on oak
Erannis defoliaria - about a dozen (on oaks, birches, and something like alder)
It's even funny to talk about plumigera-it's everywhere.

However, you should ask Elez A. Y. about the beetles.
And what is so interesting about Carabus nemoralis?

Well, until the topic is divided into components, not a big report on today's trip to the TSHA Park for wingless female autumn moth.
As a Sungaya guide, for which I thank him very much,and I was the tour guide.
The walk was easy and productive.











Maybe someone knows what kind of tree it is?

So where's fight club?

So where's fight club?

But I didn't take off my Makhach.

Sorry
Let me explain: at the most remote place, two groups of teenagers, about ten in each, came together wall to wall and began to kick each other's livers and snot with screams. The fight didn't last long - maybe three minutes at most... I don't know which group was the winner, but there were a couple of bloody noses. After that, they shouted their chants and scattered...
and we stood, stood, and went to collect pyadenits.

And in which part of the park is the most popular place? Once I was walking there at this time , I didn't find any female moths in the trees, plumiger is really a fig.

And where there is a Makhach, there is the most pyadenichnoe place
I haven't checked the entire park this year, but the southern part of it is full of them.

Probably the moths have also flocked to see Makhachkala.

So, Victor, don't forget to bring your favorite cue ball, which is standing outside your door. And then suddenly , God forbid, teenagers will come up with something else.

  
And what is so interesting about Carabus nemoralis?

Exclusively for the point.

October 15, Moscow Region, Mytishchi






Starting from October 8, returning from work, every other day or every day I examined the trunks for wingless females, and there was always something:
an orthogrammarium of an average of ten, sometimes brumates, phagates.
But today I didn't find any. Only here is such a beast (5-6 cm) on the trunk of a linden tree...
either he'd eaten them all, or the season was really ending

Impressive, I've never seen a folidopter so late.

And a little more of the TLCA park (Moscow), today
Ptilophora plumigera-decently, including - and hatching.
Erannis defoliaria females are still found on birches, oaks, and maples... and one lost - on a pine tree.
Brumat and orthogrammary did not meet.

October 20, Moscow region, Istra district. The feeling of deja vu: dry grass, sun and ... flying buckthorn trees! If you didn't look at the calendar, you'd think it was April outside. From what I saw:
Gonepteryx rhamni,
Inachis io,
Nymphalis xanthomelas,
Vanessa atalanta.
From the caterpillars on the road, numerous bears are worn: Arctia caja (?) and Phragmatobia fuliginosa (?), as well as a single Macrothylacia rubi.

20 the phone rang.
Who's talking?
kotbegemot.
What do you need?
Let's go get some mushrooms.

sdi says the mushrooms have popped up again.
Well, let's go.
And we went first to Khripan on the 21st.

For mushrooms now you need to go to deciduous forests - for example, elm trees for winter honey agarics...

Some kind of glitch.I didn't finish the message,but I don't know how this piece ended up here?

Things happen... And there are no mushrooms at all As recently as the 19th I was there with similar goals: empty.

  
I think this report is definitely the final one, tomorrow there will be a sharp cold snap.

Ty, a sharp cold snap... "A sharp cold snap" will be from Thursday to Friday, maybe a snowball will throw, but at the same time on November 10, the next cyclone with a portion of life-giving Atlantic heat is already charged, so I hope it will be up to +10(and in Ukraine up to +24) but you look, don't go anywhere then ))))))

Although, of course, all the animals will freeze, even the Crimea is questionable from frost
I wouldn't want to grab -10 from us for the weekend, but everything can be, although there is no one to freeze much anymore, after the drought, few people are left.
I'll have to go get some blackthorn in a few days.
Wasps should be put in "for wintering", because there will still be warm days later, it will be interesting to watch the nest that has received such an advantage!

Moldova, Italy, and the whole of Europe are sorry, winter is evil!!!!

In the Moscow region with butterflies, everything is much more modest and Gennadich is right, after the onset of cold weather, nothing interesting will fly this season. I am surprised to read that Gennadich and Vlad found very few mushrooms. 21 at the weekend, I walked through the woods (I didn't collect mushrooms, because the whole freezer is full of white ones, and I've already eaten so much that I need a pause) and took pictures of fungi on my phone. There were few aspen trees (in the mixed forest), there was nothing in birch-aspen (old boletus trees do not count), but in coniferous (spruce-pine) Polish mushrooms were full. The nth generation of turnips (many), lemongrass, xanthomelas, peacock eyes and other wintering nymphalids flew from butterflies. At night, one of the relatively rare things for the DoD was canisters of red blood cells. In general, it is strange that at least something flew in, 60 lamps with drl-kami were repaired in my areas, which burn all night. With this light, you will have to go to the forest with a generator

Today in Moscow I found a female moth on a birch tree. Too late, though! No one knows what kind? Brumata or fagata?

If mushrooms grow at the end of October, it means that nature is still changing...

11.11 found a bassoon on a lime tree. I wonder what is the latest instance of Operopthera spp. registered from the Moscow region?
