Blue Oak Ranch Rezèv

Kèk semèn de sa, mwen te envite nan yon klas entomoloji Berkeley soti nan jaden an pou fen semèn nan. Our destination was the Blue Oak Ranch Rezèv; youn nan rezèv yo dernye nan sistèm University of California ki sitiye jis deyò nan San Jose sou mòn Hamilton (kat jeyografik anba a). It was a joint spider and beetle class trip, hosted by Charles Griswold ak Dave Kavanaugh respectively. And despite a frost on Saturday night we managed to find some interesting insects. You’ve already seen my images of the Scaphinotus (Carabidae), but here is a larger set of images from both myself and colleague and fellow blogger Tamas Szuts.
