So there are a lot of them, bombers... But no one tried to compare, say, the development of its "bombarding" glands, to understand what they come from. About the changes in the genes that caused this, and I don't hope that anyone was involved. I can't believe that this is something completely new for insects.Actually the question arose in connection with this ...
yeees.. You shouldn't have trusted your wife with the task-the child rolled around and sobbed - and I understand him! It is a pity that his family did not understand Well that I am no longer the age when you need to ask my mother for permission to drag something into the house. Well, or at least I explain that nothing terrible will happen, everything is sealed, everything is safe. For an ...
Once, in the mountains of the Northern Urals, I saw something that looked like a battered podaliri. It sat and sucked nectar from a clove. Then waved and .... In general, I ran on the stones Kurumnikov and yernikov with breaks of three hours (he scoffed at the bitch: back and forth flew at an altitude of 5-20 meters until finally disappeared. I calmed myself down for a long time afterwards that ...
А почему называются по-разному?Значит так. Во-первых, это синонимы.Во-вторых, Papilio mesentina Cramer, 1780 - старший синоним. Но он преоккуперован Papilio mesentina Cramer, [1777], поэтому валидным названием является Belenois aurota (Fabricius, 1793).
About Reicholf-Rima - a mediocre popular book, more suitable for reading. Europe. Better buy Korshunov Errors there, if any, then in difficult groups (Oeneis, Erebia, etc.)
Under what conditions should the first-year Odorous Woodworm caterpillars hibernate, and do they need diapause?This post was edited by Apis - 09/26/2006 19: 23
The mantis is an ambush predator, and if the males are still somewhat active, the females are usually very sedentary, and after mating they will not catch up with the male, but how far the male will go depends on his activity...That's for sure, it won't work. Therefore, the problem is in a careful approach, deftly jumping on the back of the female and then jumping off. Read the article, even the ...
Definitely a magnifying glass! It is impossible to use a microscope to examine areas in the room, nature, etc., just put something under it and look at it.. with the same success, you can take this something (small in size) and drag it to the institute. So there is no sense in any case with a microscope.
Infected caterpillars (whether riders or tachins) are sluggish and grow poorly. Well, I don't agree about the poor appetite - I have a caterpillar of poplar hawk moth ate very much, and even was going to pupate, and the parasites came out only after it died and turned black.And how can you see the trace from the injection of the ovipositor if the caterpillar is, say, shaggy?
Easy, I think, on the genitals. If pupae, then at the tip of the abdomen.And the imago also has the tip of the abdomen - the female has a pointed one, the male has a blunt one.
Yes, Crimea is a nice place.Especially for catching insects.Oleander hawkmoth is the dream of any insect lover.
yes, vulgaris and germanica can be found almost everywhere, in any burrow, by the way, wasps are displacing bumblebees, they are increasingly multiplying and bumblebees often have nowhere to nest,but vespula rufa, who will find their nest here-lucky
I search as best I can , while it's still muffled.But the dust in the apartment becomes less and old runners-feed marbles alive and not so much.
Yes, this is very interesting, I will try to make some inquiries. Although it seems to me that they are not here, well, I have never heard of glaciers in Moscow.I didn't hear it, I saw it, and I collected it. In Izmailovsky Park during thaws up to 3-5 degrees. For some reason, only around the base of oak trunks. They probably hide in the cracks of the crust.
"2. Virgin Queen" - winged females (still unfertilized). By analogy, winged males should also be present in the game Why, 'that would be fun - "Virgin Kings"!
Now this butterfly is called Thersamonolycaena dispar (Hw.). Here is such a golubyanka. The photo was taken in the ROC. Vladivostok in July. Pictures:dispar.jpg — (73.49 k)
2 Elizar: Thank you for the information. So, only adults spend the winter in karabus? Apparently, we will have to wait and start breeding at the beginning of the next season.. And so I wanted now
I mean, concentration is more difficult, although they don't care - they don't have consciousness, which means they don't bother so stupidly Another example is that during hypnosis, a person's brain activity decreases very much, but still he does not sleep (1 site still remains active). Perhaps insects have something similar. Or perhaps they also have a dream, only it is expressed in a different ...
Thank you for your tips! Today, probably, I'll buy alcohol and try to arrange an acetone-alcohol cleaning for the beetle. Acetone BDA get nowhere (it is included in the list of precursors, so in the chemical store to buy it you need to have a special permit; the same can be said about chloroform), but there is a fairly clean technical, which evaporates does not leave the slightest traces on the ...
It is the hawk moth that I do not know...Other butterflies readily feed on a weak honey solution.The portion is unlimited-it will fall off itself when it is satied
There is also a list of all the right-winged birds in Europe with their distribution by region.:Heller K.G., Korsunovskaya O.S., Ragge D.R., Vedenina V., Willemse F., Zhantiev R.D., Frantsevich L., 1998. Check-List of Europea Orthoptera // Articulata. Beiheft 7. S. 1-61.It contains 72 species of the genus Poecilimon and 46 Isophya.This post was edited by Insect Expert - 08/25/2006 13: 48
In appearance, most likely a larva of one of the last instars, but 100% female. I dare to assume that the subfamily Tetriginae (species of this subfamily also live in Russia).
comrades, how can I attract bumblebees for nesting in the spring, please chew them, and in the forest in what places to look,in burrows-no, there are only wasps

It is not so easy to identify mottled flowers from photos. First you need to know where the photo came from?In general, it looks like Z. viciae, but not necessarily it.
Let the author first answer where and when the photo was taken - there will be fewer options for divination. Maybe it's even in some kind of America ;- )And it's definitely not meleager. We have a lot of them - they are not like that.
From the photo gallery Pavel KorzunovichFemale Syrphus s. str. sp. You can't tell more accurately from the photo.
Really...When taken in hand, it releases a whitish liquid with an unpleasant smell (it does not look like common odors known to me) and is quite persistent. your hands smell good for hours.
Kept the whole winter! I liked. It is unpretentious and can be fed with raw meat or small fish (for example, guppies). Lived in a 30-liter aquarium. Sometimes he gets out on the island, either to warm up or to fly. There is one drawback - I often had to change the water, because he has an interesting gland between his head and chest, and he worked out a mixture of ammonia with something he wasn't ...
The fact is that there are not so many butterflies whose caterpillars live in clusters.Well, there are peacock's eye and mottledwing on the nettle. A whole colony of silvery hole caterpillars can suddenly be caught on a willow tree.Hawks don't usually congregate in one place. You can, of course, find a few caterpillars on the food plant. In general, hawk moth caterpillars, like many others (for ...
