Discussions on general taxonomy questions of the Insecta. Suggestions on the website database updates and taxa ordering.
Why don't we create a place for fucking discussions?Moreover, we were given a lot of reasons: here are two molecular articles full of surprises a little less than completely:Regier, J.C. et al, 2009. Toward reconstructing the evolution of advanced ...
You're talking about the formal side, but I was asking about something else, something high.And I think that there is nothing "high" in the ...
The task was to cross the lines drosophila Net and Purple(pr). It turned out to establish that the purple eye color of the Pr line is associated with gender, but with the distinctive feature of the Net line - wing venation, there was a hitch. Too ...

In a nutshell, the question is: what is Pieris bryoniae? More specifically, 1-Is this taxon a species? or a zonal subspecies / form of napi? 2-are there any works on genetics, etc. later than 2008? and which ones?3-who flies in Kamchatka-Piegis ...
it would be better if you captured the whole gamut of transitions from briony to napi. I once scored 2 boxes from one place-in the north of Nizhny ...
Dear entomologists, this may be a somewhat naive question.How can you confidently state the subspecies of a butterfly in an envelope, even if there are discussions about the straightened one? Question on bulavousy and Parnassus in particular. It is ...
So your birmanica was recently described - you can take the description and try to look at the original source.
I read Boero's article:Boero F. The Study of Species in the Era of Biodiversity: A Tale of Stupidity // Diversity. 2010. V. 2.http://www.mdpi.com/1424-2818/2/1/115/Abstract: Research policies ensuing from the Convention on Biological Diversity made ...

During excavations of the Sarmatian mound (1st century AD), a large number of organic remains were found at the bottom of a grave pit about 2 meters deep. We identified them as puparia of flies.Please contact our specialists to rate these photos. ...
I post a link to the finds of beetles from medieval Yaroslavl: http://www.zin.ru/animalia/coleoptera/rus/vlasarch.htm
Dear colleagues!The following types of folded-winged wasps are very necessary for research:1. Polistes associ Kohl, 1898-both sexes.2. Polistes bischoffi Weyrauch, 1937-both sexes.The next request probably concerns mainly residents or visitors of ...

Dear forumchane!In this topic, I invite those interested to ask questions about various types of literature on biology, habitats, principles and problems of lepidopteran taxonomy.The fact is that I find almost only taxonomic trees of butterflies on ...

Dear colleagues!Very much need information (especially primary descriptions and keys) about some beetles of the Astrakhan fauna!True, in most, far from the most banal... I would really appreciate any help. Carabidae: Elaphrus (s.str.) hypocrita ...
Thank you. this information is generally known. We were interested in later finds in the Republic of Tatarstan after 2006

Bad Den - about the source ( as about the initial data of a scientific work, I can't say anything ). And what it looks like and how it got to me ...
Species descriptions often indicate "similar species" and what is different from them. I have the following question:Gentlemen, if View A is similar to View B and View B is similar to View C, can View A always be considered similar to View C?
For the catalog, as one of the properties of the view, I need to fix the ability to specify views that are similar in appearance (i.e., what can be ...
Citizens, are there any well-established translations of the phrases "under the wings", "top of the wings", "dried specimen" (a butterfly specimen from the collection as opposed to a live one)?
, "dried specimen" (a butterfly specimen from the collection as opposed to a live one)?Probably you can write a pinned instance-pinned specimen
I would like to see Formuchan's opinion about the presence of illustrations in entomological works. Whether you think that illustrations are necessary and should be published in your works as often and more often as possible, or whether "pictures" ...
Check out plantago's library. I did. But it's in German.
I would like to discuss the data structure on the page of the type of electronic catalog of lepidoptera and the system of linking sources to published information. To simplify the question, we will assume that the information itself is available, ...
Proctos, thanks for the list. The number of features is impressive. Still, there is so much data to dig up...
Hello. Well, I'll say right away, yes, I just registered and yes, I just registered to create this theme. But no, I do not intend to engage in advertising of any kind and will try to avoid allusions to sites or any trademarks, as far as the format ...
Apparently, the final completion of the work will not happen so soon, but in general, information about insects will go ...
For European, as I understand it, you can safely use faunaeur.org. Both the fullness and adequacy of the system are normal. Can you recommend something similar for non-Europe? And while there is nothing more universal than funet, but there are still ...
I join the question. About faunaeur.org I think I'll agree.The flaws in funet are caused by the fact that this old resource, as it seems to me, has ...
Tell me, if anyone knows: is there somewhere a sane determinant or at least a catalog with descriptions of the families of lepidoptera of the world? Ideally-online, on bezrybye-offline? Ideally, all of them, and Macrolepidoptera on the fishless ...
Denis, thank you for the tip-off. Indeed, for many families there is information...
You can suggest an atlas on bees or hymenoptera in general. Or some "determinant with pictures-fotografimyami". I decided to understand a little about bees, but there is not enough time or urine to master the "professional" determinant.Thank you in ...
Good site. Especially photos by Josef Dvořák.Look. http://www.biolib.cz/en/gallery/dir388/It is a pity that the size of the insect is not ...
http://old.donbass.ua/get-news/id/5950/article.htmlAnd a few more similar notes from last year. A search for such a word does not give anything other than these notes, and there is nothing in Latin either.What kind of heromancy is this?
It is interesting that this name, judging by the search on the web, has been included in the Internet press (and possibly in paper newspapers) since ...
Does anyone know where to find a resource on the Internet so that you can get(by default or by request to the database) a catalog of all known taxa with an indication of the number of known species, genera, families, etc.? Where do these mysterious ...
http://files.mail.ru/LS8S03Thanks! It's a good book.
There are several questions about the new European checklist:1. Who are the authors?2. Source data, where published, what to link to?3. What territories are meant by HDI regions:RU-KGDRU-FJLRU-NOZRU-RUCRU-RUERU-RUNRU-RUSRU-RUW?
This is understandable; here: The Distribution atlas of European butterflies – - Oedippus 20: 1-342 edited by Kudrna dardanus goes as a species, ...
As suggestions: I think that the alphabetical order of bringing families and lower taxa is completely unacceptable, since the site claims to be a serious comprehensive resource. It would be necessary to place all right relationship from primitive to ...
Tellingly, no one bothers to make both choices. If someone is able to do an adequate breakdown of the primitiveness - there are no technical ...
People! Let's look at childbirth Protesilaus, Eurytides, Protographium (with Neographium together) and Mimoides. How we make them here ??? Or will integrate all-still Protesilaus, Eurytides, Neographium ???
I agree with the interpretation of Dmitry!
Start the discussion on the page and type Protesilaus protesilaus since it has grown, it has decided to continue here. And shifting the first post in a single "bunch " for clarity. 20-02-2011 Dmitry Pozhogin: remove this family 02.20.2011, Evgeny ...

At first I thought to name the topic, an easy definition, then after reading everything I wrote, I realized that I wrote how to use the determinant. I don't often take him as a liar. Don't judge me harshly. Maybe someone will need it.Maybe someone ...
I will contribute my five kopecks to the discussion. In some determinants, the authors are quite free with plesiomorphic and apomorphic features. ...

When did modern insect species appear?This post was edited by Sevastic-05.07.2010 12: 11
But the indications of modern species from Baltic amber are very doubtful. IMHO, of course.It depends on the group. In archaic cases, it is quite ...
Who can tell from the latest taxonomy reviews whether the Arctiidae, Lithosiidae, and Synthomidae are separate families or all of the Acrtiidae together? Or false mottles separately? It's different on different sites, but there's still no consensus?
And dipper, and volnyanki.http://pensoftonline.net/zookeys/index.php...ownload/414/400Yes, unifying taxonomy is gaining momentum, at least in recent ...
Dear forumchane. Please tell me in what literature I can find a description of methods for studying lepidoptera by the structure of the copulatory apparatus, as well as methods for studying caterpillar chetotaxy and methods for studying lepidopteran ...
Yes, the question of methods for studying pupae is still open.If there is something in Russian, please give us a link.
Good day to you, dear forumchane. I am puzzling over the image of butterflies on an ancient Chinese mirror. let's say the plot is isolated and completely uncharacteristichelp us determine what kind of view it is... I assumed that this is some kind ...
Not for attribution? Interesting and creepy. and not for attribution, I will post photos as soon as I find something interesting on the web . don't ...
Please enlighten me on this issue, here I read in the Net that the tribe Necydalini was until recently part of the subfamily Lepturinae, after which I got into a slight stupor. Having climbed in the net, I saw that on several American sites this ...
That's right, this group is really very close to the lepturinae. and the structure of the genitals confirms this.so there is no big crime in the ...
I found information about spiders of the Lycosidae family in the directory of the times of the USSR.There is one genus Tarentula, which is not found in other sources. The reference book does not include the genus Alopecosa, which may have appeared ...
Yes, Tarentula is a synonym for Alopecosa. This is already in the determinant of spiders by Tyschenko (1971).

I need to specify the Euphydryas (aurinia) saretensis taxon correctly. It was described by Staudinger, there is no doubt about it. But in what year? In the available literature, there is a complete discrepancy: 1871, 1878, 1879... I looked in ...
And to call it sareptensis Stgr.; to stipulate that the description is clearly late, it would be absolutely correct; and the year will still have to ...

I highlight in a separate topic, because almost everything can be attributed not only to butterflies, but also so that the question is not lost.So, there is an opinion that the correct illustrated catalog should contain a set of features (by which ...
Nevertheless, this publication has scientific value to this day. And at the time of its release, it was in high demand.
Again unsuccessful Googling... Y-yes, can you tell me any source on the Web where there is a system for this type, preferably detailed?
Oh! Vasily, many thanks.
Actually, the subject... As much as I've seen in Google — everywhere only up to the family...
