08.03.2023 22:58, adadurov: comment on How long can wasps and bees live without food and drink

In the barn, I "caught" a hornet's nest with 2 or 3 adult wasps in a plastic container. They lived there for 2 months without water or food. At the end, their larvae hatched, the adults soon died, and the young ones lived for about a week after the adults died.

Previously, there were several such images, but they were not taken, and the internal structure of the genitals was not shown.

20.02.2023 23:53, Peter Khramov: comment on photo #52100

We have comment from email: It is a Gonocerus acuteangulatus. It is not an Haploprocta sulcicornis. Look the edge of the neck : on your picture it has the same color than the pronotum: this would not be the case it it was an Haploprocta sulcicornis.

19.01.2023 10:20, excellens: comment on Is faunology an important aspect of entomology?

It was quite strange for me to read all this, to be honest. I turned to Kirill Vladimirovich many times - both when preparing my dissertation, and later when I brought material from the reserve where I worked. And then I started working with food companies to identify the detected pests - and this, I will tell you, is still a pleasure when they send a photo of an insect on the floor, taken from ...

Dear friends! Alexander Generalov, well-known to many, became active again (just a sick and unhappy person who causes only a feeling of disgust). Threw on serious money friends.

14.12.2022 18:26, Victor Titov: comment on What species of insects do swifts eat?

- OK. But the distribution of flying families, which is food for the twilight swift , is nonsense in my opinion. I would like confirmation. Ornithologists did not answer me anything intelligible on their forum.Why is that nonsense? Among the representatives of the beetle families found in the stomachs of birds (grains, staphylinae, weevils, leaf beetles, spangles), species of very small size and ...

Something in addition.In the vicinity of Pyatigorsk, I encountered such a phenomenon.At the end of May, Arion flew and flew until mid-June (approximately the same time as in the Volgograd region). However, since mid-July, Arion has been flying again. Moreover, the "spring" and "summer" individuals were quite different from each other, and if desired, they could be considered different species. ...

03.11.2022 0:47, ИНО: comment on Photos of collections

Well, then the non-commercial group is a super-rare subspecies of a banal type that can't be sold to anyone With almost all insects, the situation is standard: some taxonomists regularly describe species, others reduce them, and these processes balance each other out. That is, the state of the taxon system is determined by the levels of scientific knowledge and skills (and, alas, ignorance of ...

27.10.2022 0:00, ИНО: comment on Entomologist's magnifying glass + lamp

Better a late response than no response at all. Maybe someone else will need it. So, for the purposes of the vehicle, no "magnifying lamp"is definitely suitable. Because a magnification of 5x or more is required, a single lens of this multiplicity will have to be brought a couple of centimeters closer to the object in order to get a clear image of it. Naturally, any analysis and straightening of ...

14.10.2022 17:17, ИНО: comment on The Tale of Tsar Saltan from the entomologist's point of view

All bumblebees fly at about the same speed (with the same size), but different flies - very differently. The proposed Musca domestica is not a very high-speed flyer. I think that when flying across the sea with a bumblebee, they will have + / - parity. From the point of view of aerodynamics, I would advise the prince to turn into a ktyr - and he flies quickly and can stand up for himself if ...

Interesting question. Where there is learning new things in terrain orientation, there should be emotions. It's like a male praying mantis being flattened after sex.

Wow, what interesting conversations were held on the forum in the last decade! Not like the current one Still, even if it's late, I'll put in my five kopecks, thinking of a butterfly caterpillar as an embryo that prematurely left the egg, although convenient, is wrong from an evolutionary point of view. It is known that the first insects with incomplete transformation appeared, in which the ...

05.09.2022 7:08, ИНО: comment on General entomology. Anatomy and physiology. Questions.

You just need to change the lens (at least for industriar-104) and make normal lighting, with a diffuser - then your eyes will cut through! And there really are no eyes, by the way, butterflies have only two of them, not three. Pictures:DSC08564a.jpg — (323.41к)

Hello. I have two Swallowtail caterpillars. I found it in the garden on Snyti. I fed her. Today one decided to pupate. She hung on to a branch. The second one hasn't changed its mind yet. How to arrange a proper wintering period for them? The refrigerator is not very large, you will not be able to put a large capacity. There is an unglazed balcony. I live in Moscow. In winter -30 can be. Will ...

25.08.2022 21:36, ИНО: comment on Glue for sticking insects on glue boards

The next stage of "progress" is pouring into epoxy blocks, it is poorly visible from both sides, but for centuries Out, Pan Hierophis has been doing this for a long time. Probably, he was disappointed in the dream of finding worthy heirs to his unique super collection during his lifetime and hopes that the "right entomologists" who can appreciate this monumental work will appear in the future at ...

16.08.2022 18:06, AVA: comment on Vespula germanica loses its sting like Apis mellifera

  .. the venomous apparatus separated from the wasp functioned very efficiently - the muscles contracted, continuing to pump venom.And this may indicate in favor of the assumption that the ganglion was still present there. The glands themselves wouldn't work.

11.08.2022 23:39, А.Й.Элез: comment on Tell me if it is possible to poison a cat with tiger moths

Of the three cats, only one of the youngest eats moths and butterflies.Well, we will have to assume that in the case I have described (and in many similar cases), every third cat is just huddled at the lanterns, and the rest are sitting at home.

Who can tell you what is the cause of caterpillar death?Similar problem. I recently found 3 wine hawk moth caterpillars and put them in one terrarium.

Three days later, the third (most adult) caterpillar ...
