22.05.2012 16:01, Lev Bely: comment on Butterfly-shaped drone: the newest Israel's indoor surveillance project

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 ...

22.05.2012 13:50, DanMar: comment on Records sizes

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

21.05.2012 1:22, Peter Khramov: comment on Comment doubles fixed

Up to now you all could experience such annoying thing as comment doubles in case if you happened to refresh the same page right after you'd commented anything. So you got twin comments. Now it's fixed and you are free to reload pages after you just left a comment on community subjs, species or photos, and your own subject as well. If your browser asks to confirm the duplicate submission, please ...

20.05.2012 15:20, Peter Khramov: comment on Bad redirecting from former URLs now fixed

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.

Ok, Petr, that's worth doing indeed to have it near at hand when identifying.

18.05.2012 16:43, Lev Bely: comment on Heliconius melpomene genome sequenced: butterflies crossbreed to survive

More than 70 scientists from 9 institutions including The Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute, sequenced the genome of the Postman butterfly (Heliconius melpomene), a favorite one among collectors and researchers since the very Victorian times. The study results were published in the reputed “Nature” journal. Panama's Heliconius melpomene genome explains the incredible variety of ...

18.05.2012 6:24, cichrus: comment on Repeated question on the range of the Hercules beetle

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 ...

The new series is amazing in full, both objects and backgrounds.

17.05.2012 15:52, Dmitriy Pozhogin: comment on photo #12666

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.

16.05.2012 21:56, Lev Bely: comment on Largest butterfly migration recorded in Canada

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,” ...

12.05.2012 13:00, Sergey85: comment on Mating of P. machaon

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, ...

11.05.2012 18:24, vasiliy-feoktistov: comment on V. Savchuk in trouble

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.

08.05.2012 21:31, Lev Bely: comment on James Pearce's 16000 butterflies donated to the Natural History Museum of Utah

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 ...
