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 ...

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 ...
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 ...
Yury, I can perfectly see all recent comments as to photos, topics, species on http://lepidoptera.pro/community page, no worries.
collect in June, on nettles (usually they live in a cluster) such caterpillars as shown in the picture, on nettles you feed (the pupa is shown here and in the second half of summer you have a butterfly Everything is correct writes Vasily find a good thicket of nettles, usually 50 caterpillars are fed or maybe more.I used to see two species feasting onnettles.
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 ...
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.

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 ...
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.
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.
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 ...
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 ...
