Often, books indicate certain distinctions of bee breeds, for example, Carpathian bees: it is described that they are gray, but practically they are brown, so why do they lie?And besides, let's start a conversation and a big topic about bees!

Fanatics! And midges can't bite anything off, because they don't have a gnawing mouthpiece.

Are there any natural enemies of ixodid ticks in nature? I live in the South. In the Urals. The ticks are already out, to be honest. 1 shoot, and you already have 2 more crawling. And they absolutely don't care about any reftamids.

And what is the meaning of sphragis? And where does it come from (does the male attach?)This post was edited by Bad Den - 05/24/2007 08: 56
I've heard that male sailboats have a larger inner notch on the second pair of wings than females. True, I didn't check it myself.
We are interested in any information about the recent b. m. finds of Eudia spini (Denis et Schiffermueller, 1775). As far as I know, the species has recently become extinct throughout its range.
So I'm wondering how you can distinguish spini from pavonia from the trap. The latter type is not particularly rare, although we do not have it.
Is there an enzyme that would attract these wonderful insects, butterflies???
Beautiful butterflies sometimes fly on shit too. And on the dokhlyatinka. Life is interesting....
