Moscow and the Moscow region

If it's not a secret, what time did Pavonia arrive ?

If it's not a secret, what time did Pavonia arrive ?

22: 14 - according to the photo

Thank You

Moreover, there are a lot of thorns there, growing in every ravine. A steppe cherry tree was also found there, but it has not yet bloomed. Now I was surprised to find that neither the blackthorn nor the cherry is listed in the CC of the Ministry of Defense for this point. Apparently botany in the CC MO is just as bad as entomology.

We had a blackthorn blooming at the end of April, and I already managed to miss it, looking at your photos...

I was at a dacha in Poplar, and on the weekend insectamo came to me.
The first night we shone on the swamp, it was warm and rainy and the arrival was not pleasant. The only joy is the reed scoop Senta flammea.
On the second night, we crossed paths with the guys from Neftyanik and went to shine on Voinova Gora, the result is even worse, the reason is a clear cold night and heavy fog.




Japonica arrived yesterday at 22: 30.

You lucky bastard! Well, nothing, I have against your Lampronia fuscatella Xenolechia aethiops is!
By the way, have you examined the thickets of kirkazon for polyxena?

In general, if you have a blackthorn blooming at the end of April, it turns out a small time difference... It always seemed to me that the phenological difference between the Moscow region and the south of Ukraine is somewhat greater. Have you had a belated spring, or is it always like this?

Yes, most of our plants bloomed later this year. Last year, the blackthorn bloomed in early April.

Not well, this is already too much In fact, the flowering of blackthorn in terms of timing this year and last year was not very different. In 2014, we did not have the first flowers on the blackthorn everywhere yet, and the blackthorn began to bloom en masse on April 16. This year, blackthorn blooms began on April 16 and peaked around the 20th.

29.05.2015г. I got out to Serebryano-Prudsky district.



One of the goals of the trip was to capture the western May crunch. A species with an unintelligible range.

I worked on 2 biotopes: a field overgrown with chamomile, where I took a May beetle and IMHO a female Valgus.



And a broad-leaved forest consisting of linden, maple, and oak. Despite weather forecasts, the weather is very hot. Fleeing from the heat, I periodically turned into the forest, where I found a little freshness and mosquitoes (the latter were present, but not very annoying). The entire forest was filled with the sounds of crunching and raining of something incomprehensible. And this is all the caterpillars are trying to do. They're everywhere here. The rash will turn out to be the excrement of future butterflies. They shit right on your head. And where Calosoms are looking. They were also seen about 6 copies, 3 copies. took. Rhagium Sygophanta was also found here. The road I was following didn't produce a catch. T-shirts could be crawling on it. A particularly pleasant bonus was the capture of the brachita barbel (the 2nd find for the entire time of my collecting, the 1st capture was in 2003).





Catch photo:



All the way back, I cursed myself for not taking the mortar and setting up the soil traps.

In conclusion, I would like to express my gratitude to Nikolay "Seneka" for his valuable advice and guidance.

Dima, it's not too late to put down the glasses.

Perhaps if you dig in the trees a lot of interesting things can get caught.

Poplar 30.05-1.06.2015
Possibly Acronicta menyanthidis (female gave eggs)






Pygaera timon

From what is new for Topolinyi, Gennadich still forgot Epinotia demarniana, Cydia nigricana, Incurvaria oehlmaniella and Agonopterix propinquella (but these are commonplace), as well as Neofaculta ericetella (unless of course it is infernella), which came across both at his dacha and on Voinovaya Gora.

More like infernella.

Yes, I also think so, especially since it seems to eat blueberries and birch instead of heather, which is unlikely to get on Voinovaya Gora.

And the cochilina Eupoecilia ambiguella?

And the cochilina Eupoecilia ambiguella?

And who else!

Damn, when's Timon coming to see me? Here, I look like everyone else has a" moon switch".

We definitely had it during the night from 31 to 1, in the form of clouds. Also heated)) after sunset, t dropped to 12.7, and when we left the peat bog, it increased to 15.4.

Pasha, I'm near you, on ZBS, Timons flew

Pasha, Timons flew to me next to you, on the ZBS

And it's not enough for me that they haven't flown in 6 years of fishing at the dacha, even though I'm nearby, so I haven't seen her or lobulin on the ZBS either! Although in 2011 I fished there from late May to mid-July almost every night...

Poplar 30.05-1.06.2015
Possibly Acronicta menyanthidis (female gave eggs)
[attachmentid()=225746]
[attachmentid()=225747]

Isn't this an auricoma?

Ah lobulina to me, too, one flew only then, truth female)

Isn't this an auricoma?

The poker at the base of the wing is too beautiful. By the way, the black "arrow" at the inner corner does not "break through" the white line, and for some reason there are no such shapes on the Internet for either auricoma or menyanthidis.

In my opinion: the general mottling, the border along the edge of the forewing, the size of the round spot, the point inside it - speak in favor of auricoma.

Yes, the dot is a strong argument. Well, if she really threw eggs, time will tell)

Gennadich, take care of your eggs! )))

I tried this weekend in Odintsovo district to collect Panemeria tenebrata.
Earlier, a few years ago, I collected a couple of copies in a clearing during the day on flowers.
This time I went around the clearing - not a single one. In the garden today already flew twice, for the net did not have time. Eh.

Last weekend.The nights are cold.
Poplar.
New to me Metzneria paucipunctella(if of course this is it)

I don't know these guys

Epinotia nisella?




Warm night from 7 to 8. Several night photos.







Bugs called child firefighters are not harmless creatures at all.

The female consumes another female from the mating pair, while the males rest.


While the females are satiated and do not doze off, however, they often become food for the lady.


7 in the afternoon I took a ride to Nerskaya
Sosnovy pililshchik there is a disaster





Glyphipterix forsterella?

Some interesting plant

Glyphipterix forsterella-yes.
Flower-kupena, in the park in Zhukovsky is full of it. A relative of the lily of the valley, venomous.

Kupena is simply more typical for the west of the region) And how to distinguish forsterella from equitella?
Gelechiida is similar to Athrips mouffetella, but it does not seem to be it. And one of the leafmakers at the bottom is Grapholita funebrana, the most banal garden view, I've seen it more than once.

23.04.2015 in my report from Zhukovo I laid out caterpillars descending from birches at night.
Today it turned out that this is Argyresthia goedartella


6.05.2015, the pupa was in a cocoon, the cocoon did not take pictures because it was woven in a napkin



3.06.2015
