I have actually met ticks on representatives of all the land beetle families found in Latvia. Just not always a layman of this tick will notice and understand. that it is a tick, not a seed or a grain of sand. this is especially true for Uropodina nymphs.
And here's mine. Not far from Podosinok. The quality is not very good, but the shade is different. The original photo is turned 180 degrees.Who doesn't know: the upper part of this butterfly is just brown.
a cute scoop. It is also interesting because the antennae are rather strongly combed, which is not very typical for scoops.
And it looks like my:This post was edited by amara - 05.08.2007 19: 24 Pictures:P1010017_1.jpg — (138.71к)
Hello! How do you feel about the Catalog of life website? There (if you believe the creators) is a list of all species, and with full taxonomy. I have this problem: I collect photos of different types of animals (for a child). I would like to show it in Latin as well. But often cool photos either don't have a Latin name at all, or when searching in the Catalog of life for such a name, I can't ...
In the morning I decided to pick out the cocoon... Who knew he was so hard. Took out a pupa, quite firm, looks healthy, constantly moves... I put it in a plastic box. What else do you need to add to the box, for the comfort of the pupa?You shouldn't have picked the cocoon. Harpies often shrivel up without their cocoons. And for the winter, the pupa should be put in the refrigerator. It is ...
The chloroform was laboratory grade. In a sealed factory bottle. About extinguishing a fire with chloroform - a good idea! Be sure to try it! I didn't say the word "combustible".
by saving, I meant everything from squeezing in the net to straightening, etc.it is not difficult to straighten, the main thing is to clearly understand the technology and accumulate a drop of experience, and then everything is like clockwork.
Yes, in general, it is necessary to plant those who torment tomatoes, and even in other people's cups!
Old abandoned nest of the hornet Vespa crabro under the roof of the bathhouse Chuvashia, Cheboksary district, Karachura village July 27, 2007 Pictures:_____2.JPG — (139k)
It took more than 2 hours to catch about 150 workers. Caught with a regular net-after in the container.
Related question: is it possible to achieve similar results without expensive and inaccessible installations? Just in the right weather and in the right place to make one or more smoke fires and periodically sprinkle pyrethroid concentrate there.No, that won't do - the pyrethroids will burn.In these installations, the principle is different - in the pipe, the insecticide solution is sprayed by a ...
The usual view, but it's always nice to find it. He is also very photogenic. Pictures:pg.jpg — (160.13к)
In the summer of 91 in the Saratov region, on the banks of the Volga River, I saw a strip of about 50 by 5 meters completely covered with a living carpet of perelivnits. Amazing picture, I wish I had a camera...
Cool! Given its size, it can significantly push out the locals.In London, I caught it myself, the usual view!
No documents are required for sending insects to / from EU countries, provided that the package does not contain any internationally or locally protected species.And for cites and protected ones (except for the First Application), a simple written "certificate of origin" from the owner is enough, which also does not pose any problems...
No luck, just a forager flying out. I wanted to take a picture of another nest of the same species in a railway extension nearby , here they gave me a leg.
Thank you but the Swallowtail is a very rare butterfly in Latvia. it is listed in the Red Book . yes, it will be difficult .This is fundamentally wrong! The view is very ordinary. Yes, it is listed in the Red Book, but the red Book in Latvia has NO legal force, and was created only to raise the level of education of the population in matters of environmental protection.

Mm-hmm...I guess I just don't do them. In some species, the cassid is only seen. But I am tormented by the suspicion that if they had just dried up, they would have been the same.
By the way, there's plenty of good stuff here.But I am interested in their nutrition.I've never seen them on flowers or drinking juice.But each time, during picnics, they take away pieces of meat, both raw and fried, while behaving relatively politely to people.Why?About being polite - I don't know why.Meat they (wasps, and hornets, probably) carry to the larvae, which, as far as I know, after ...

Outwardly, they are certainly similar, but in the 7 - point epimera, the posterior thorax is black, and in the magnifica they are brown. The magnifica is more convex, and its spots are larger, and there may be (and sometimes may not be) a 9th dot-like spot on the top of the elytra.
However, in the drawings, it looks more toothy Is it a female?this is a small male. I have larger copies. both sexes and they, yes-look toothier.
A new series of books will be published in Europe. Designed for many years, considering that there are about 23,000 species in Europe. And huge in volume - many thousands of pages (I envy). For some reason, data from the former USSR is included only for the Baltic countries. In Preparation:Wagner, T. (Ed.); Ruecker, W.Coleoptera of Europe 1: Latriidae, Merophysidae and Dasyceridae This new series ...
A broken tree, there are a lot of dead trees in this forest, but oddly enough, there are almost no insects there - only small ground beetles of the same species in the birches-then I'll post a photo. After the floodplain forest itself:In the forest on a birch saw a strange caterpillar:Buzzed was mnooogo and different - but they flew quickly and managed to catch only one and in poor lighting Skin ...
sealor, yes, they have a uterus there. The photo was sent to me by my sister, M. B. This is just the beginning of swarming or just the case you are talking about.
The beetle is surprisingly eurytopene-here, in Kazakhstan, it is found both in sandy deserts and in the mountains, at an altitude of 3600 m.!
I have one male of the biggest beetle of the world Titanus giganteus for sale.e-mail: romsur@azet.sk
Yes, when we went to Andreevka last year (Khasansky district of Primorye), we saw a lot of them on potatoes at the owners ' houses where we lived.
then only the essential suggestions.. But only so that it does not interfere with the progress of atlas

I wrote him a letter asking him to repair the damage with new beetles. He went to the meeting and promised to send new beetles, packing them well so that none of them would get hurt. I hope for the best. Maybe everything will change, well, let's see.
