25.05.2006 22:55, vituss: comment on Mosquito imago

thank you!

24.05.2006 15:49, PVOzerski: comment on There was a Cerambycidae larva, but what happened?

I read about the tachina parasitizing the larvae of the larch barbel in Rozhkov's book. So, in principle, nothing surprising. Although it would be interesting to know the method of infection.

22.05.2006 7:50, sealor: comment on Butterfly cocoons

It is not necessary to transfer eggs to the plant, these caterpillars will crawl over themselves, the plant should certainly be nearby.Wait until they hatch, depending on the temperature.But the eggs must be fertilized, often in captivity butterflies lay unfertilized eggs. So it may not hatch at all, and you can wait a long time...

Only you misidentified it, it's Psyllobora (Thea) vigintiduopunctata.Subcoccinella vigintiquatuorpunctata I took off about a week ago in my garden:Their drawing varies, but the background is brick, plus hairiness.

18.05.2006 13:54, BO.: comment on Aeshna affinis

This is not Aeshna cyanea - you have Aeshna affinis in your pictures. They differ in size (the affinis is smaller), breast color, and anal appendages (in the male cyanea, the upper anal appendages at the tops are clearly bent down).And the pictures are wonderful!Thank you very much.

14.05.2006 9:46, Dmitry Vlasov: comment on Keeping of Coleoptera larvae

In antlers, the anal opening has the form of a longitudinal slit, while in the stag beetle, there are two bare oval spots on the sides of it. In lamellar sawyers, the anal opening is three-rayed or transverse. Unfortunately, the angle of the photo does not allow you to see the end of the abdomen...

13.05.2006 15:53, Vlad Proklov: comment on Catch on light

Here is an article in English on fishing for light, there are also instructions for making a simple trap.I bought myself a ready-made "Robinson type" from them-I can't get enough of it. I doubt, however, that they ship abroad.http://www.angleps.btinternet.co.uk/guide.htmAnother advantage of the traps discussed there is that they do not kill the catch, after accounting, you can freeze the ...

28.04.2006 15:42, Nilson: comment on Entomological expeditions

Can I carry fuel for primus?Of course! With the import of gas cylinders, gasoline or whatever else can be used as fuel, there have never been any problems. Neither in Ukraine, nor on the way to Uzbekistan. People with backpacks, ropes, and cats are treated differently. The more civilized you look on an expedition, the more complaints you get, and a crowd of smoke-smelling, ragged tourists with a ...

24.04.2006 12:58, PVOzerski: comment on Pyrgomorpha bispinosa

Just keep in mind: the photo is not an adult, but a larva of the last age. One can see the arrangement of wing rudiments characteristic of the last two instars of erect-wing larvae: the rudiments of the anterior pair are covered by the rudiments of the posterior pair of wings.This post was edited by PVOzerski - 04/24/2006 12: 58

Have you seen or smelled it?

20.04.2006 10:05, Guest: comment on How does the caterpillar crawl?

I made her crawl properly!http://www.ibiblio.org/e-notes/VRML/blaxxun/caterpillar.htmtrue, I don't really like that butterflies don't flutter (like their friends outside the window), but fly like hefty birds

19.04.2006 19:48, Катя Л.: comment on A Wasp

Beautiful girl! I haven't even seen them anywhere. Where were you photographed?

17.04.2006 12:09, Helene: comment on P. apollo

Come on, the pubescence is very different (the male is fluffy, otherwise you can not say). And at the end of the abdomen, their primary sexual characteristics are clearly visible. And if the female has already mated - so there is finally sfragis.

17.04.2006 8:17, Nilson: comment on Papilio glaucus? aka Eastern Tiger Swallowtail

It is very similar to the glaucus-Tiger swallowtail. It is difficult to say for sure, but judging by the fact that the butterfly is quite common , it is true. In Virginia (which, as you know, is very close) this is the most common sailboat.

15.04.2006 13:18, Juglans: comment on Inachis io geisha

The Helenesubspecies is allocated to Stephens. According to the Japanese, the subspecies geisha lives only in Japan. And as for the differences - so everything ultimately rests on the structure of the genitals! Here I have no information.

13.04.2006 0:02, Chromocenter: comment on How a fly sees the world...

Try to swat the fly and make a slightly sharp movement with your hand - you will see how it does not see. Maybe, of course, the hairs will smell the fluctuation of the air. In general, animals with faceted eyes see moving objects better than those at rest, because when an object moves, it passes through a large number of facets at once. There is another feature of faceted eyes - they are good at ...

11.04.2006 8:27, Nilson: comment on Flower eye (Aphantopus hyperanthus)

Indeed, Hyperant is a flower peephole. A cute butterfly, but the neighborhood of my native Mogilev was so full of it (alternately with Maniola jurtina) that I was just desperate to find at least something else.

11.04.2006 1:32, Proctos: comment on And now - humpbacks!..

Well, Melaloncha is not found here, I just wrote about Hypocera. About how they suddenly moved away from parasitism for the first time I heard from you. It's hard to believe - would you trade a juicy steak for horns and hooves? If this really happened, then why didn't beekeepers stop worrying about foridosis?I answer about Hypocera. I don't know about beekeepers and what kind of phoridosis they ...

06.04.2006 14:24, Nilson: comment on Agraulis vanillae butterfly

In my opinion, this is indeed the helicon Agraulis vanillae Linn. It lives in the subtropics in the south of the United States, is considered quite common in Texas (and Mexico, of course), and is also found in California.
