Look back: your own home may host not only inobnoxious moths but also an insect drone watching you. Here it goes, latest Israel's indoor surveillance project — a small “butterfly” that weighs just 20 grams, a unique and perfect spy which has no peer in doing its job well and, the core thing, imperceptible. The spy can take color photos, take off vertically and hover in the air as ...
About mantises say that even Ischnomantis gigas is the largest.But they are all so skinny, rather not the largest, but the longest.As for grasshoppers, Saga ephippigera have impressive dimensions, but they are not very long, up to 10 cm

Some former URLs containing additional hyphens e.g. http://lepidoptera.pro/species/polygonia-c-album for Polygonia c-album species, could be redirected wrongly (from the Polygonia c-album URL mentioned you should've been moved to http://lepidoptera.pro/taxonomy/8617). Now cured.

Cuba is strongly anthropogenic transformed and the most natural ecosystems there are left in the mountains, the rest is tortured by centuries-old plantation farming. Moreover, do not discount the level of science in Cuba, they are good at studying and monitoring their fauna. Are such taxonomic and zoogeographical breakthroughs possible there? I don't think you should worry about the uniqueness of ...
Alexandr! I unluckily have no Papilio polytes ledebouria female only male so can't compare. You should've seen its females in Thailand, Papilio polytes romulus subspecies [Cramer, 1775]. As the photo was not signed, I identified it as polytes and even now I'm sure of that it's a polytes female. As for the Papilio alphenor, the article is to be looked up.
Approximately 300 million red admiral (Vanessa atalanta) butterflies moved from Windsor (Canada, Ontario) to New Brunswick. Such a massive butterfly migration through Eastern Canada was caused by the unusually warm winter in North America. This will surely have some further consequences for other species too. “It's probably the most exciting year for butterflies that Canada has ever seen,” ...
Something strange is happening in nature - we saw the first male deer beetle in the south-east of the region on May 8!!? A record for all periods of observation in our region!In the Belgorod region too samoe
I want to add: the female needs to be allowed to fly for better maturation of the gren, and in the cage where it is located to maintain humidity, otherwise it will dry up ("oviparous organ", I don't remember what it is called who will tell me I will be grateful), otherwise she will not be able to lay eggs as I recently did. And it is convenient to feed them by plucking the flowers of dandelions, ...

It was not yet banned, but "caught" because they wanted to "hang" the "mescaline trade".And this cactus we have as sold in callouts and continue to sell In addition, then, along with this cactus, they banned a number of plants that grow everywhere in our hedges and flower beds. In general, this is complete garbage.

Colleagues, is there any published information about the distribution/location of the phaneropter in the Moscow Region? If yes, throw a link, PLIZ!!!http://eversmannia.entomology.ru/eversmannia_15-16_72.pdf
This genus species can be identified precisely by genitalia only. (according to Kirpichnikova V. A.)
James Pearce's love with entomology began in his childhood when he was exploring Mill Creek Canyon with a gossamer net to find butterflies. Then his interest took him to study science and medicine particularly yet he didn't quit collecting butterflies in his Salt Lake City home. For 60 years Dr. James Pearce gathered an immense butterfly collection of 16000 specimens that were recently donated ...

The book as ...
