The California Academy of Sciences found in 1853 has a world's largest biological collection of over than 20 million specimens including 17 million insects. The video underneath gives an interesting short review from an Entomology Department Collections Manager Norman Penny who tells about amazing iridescent morpho butterflies (Morpho), Queen Alexandra's Birdwing butterfly (Ornithoptera ...

Gah, there's the rub!

25.04.2012 0:43, Peter Khramov: comment on Photos uploading

Due to the taxa databases underwent synchronization, photos uploading was temporarily disabled hence photos could be signed wrongly. The synchronization now is finished both as to databases of the Russian and English versions of the website, so users of the English version may upload photos in the usual way.

23.04.2012 16:58, Lev Bely: comment on Storms showered Nebraska (USA) with butterflies

Strong storms moved through the Midwest (USA) lately and brought unwelcome guests to Nebraska. Leon Highley, an entomologist from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, said that butterflies and moths which presently flutter around Lincoln and Lancaster County were carried with a recent storm from Gulf Coast. One day later, Highley found a dead painted lady butterfly (Vanessa) on campus. “My ...

22.04.2012 22:22, headshotboy: comment on Who do you keep in the house?

Oh, shit... Total recall... It's nice to remember-I kept a lot of people...If the larvae of ant lions do not make craters, it is cold and the sand is a little wet, but the temperature is more important. I kept them repeatedly, from the very first ages to imago - without any problems. Cool animals, the main thing is that they don't require much space At +35-38, they even tried to dig frankly ...

20.04.2012 23:09, Lev Bely: comment on Damien Hirst's great and terrible butterflies

It was butterflies who brought fame to Damien Hirst, a fancy English artist and famous provocateur who in turn demonstrates his devotion putting them in an empty, unanimated windowless space at the Tate Modern gallery* in London, just to amuse idle gapers and tourists. Surrounded by this “fancy” society they are to emerge from their cocoons and die few days later right here, before the eyes ...

19.04.2012 9:12, Vasiliy Feoktistov: comment on Complete website redesign during April—May: suggestions and advices welcomed

Petr, if it's technically possible and appreciated in general, let's add a webforum. I just meant that quite local people also use www.molbiol.ru.

18.04.2012 18:45, Lev Bely: comment on Lubbock (USA, TX) residents are disturbed with moth invasion

Moths have been hatching from last year eggs right inside homes of locals who literally have to dodge insects rushing out onto the streets. “The moths start off as army cut worms, and as adults become what are commonly known as miller moths (Acronicta leporina).” Donna Duncan, co-owner of D’s Pest Control said. “Right now, basically what’s happening is they’re hatching from eggs ...

18.04.2012 18:42, barko: comment on Publishing descriptions of new taxa in the Journalistic Journal

I could not even imagine that coordinating the layout with a technical editor is a more difficult task than writing an article and reviewing it together, which I am offered are simply terrible.

18.04.2012 15:19, vasiliy-feoktistov: comment on A few questions related to the "collection"

Revenue will be insignificantI didn't write that down: although it is better for the author to spread out all sorts of ordinary Brachyta interrogationis and others for himself and not to suffer with attempts to sell: in M. O. at least.Although this is not even called a collection, but rather beetles packaged as standard for sale.

18.04.2012 15:18, headshotboy: comment on Armenia - August 2011?

2 Dracus: potamonids are found all over Transcaucasia, two or three species. And, in general, quite massive. Large males can be almost the size of a man's palm-impressive animals do not like them locally (the claws are strong, and crabs grab their legs in the water very noticeably) and push, but there are still more crabs Bogomolchik-yes, butterscotch. I was surprised by the presence of larvae in ...

17.04.2012 19:14, Lev Bely: comment on Garden blooming for butterflies

Butterflies might overlook quite the stuff but an exuberant, bloomy garden. Plant your garden with native plants that will surely attract various butterflies. Choose the very native ones so as butterflies could feed on nectar and caterpillars do on foliage. Adult butterflies might wrongly lay eggs on a non-native plant what may result in the offspring death. Planning a garden layout, better to ...
