ສອງສາມອາທິດກ່ອນຫນ້ານີ້ຂ້າພະເຈົ້າໄດ້ເຊື້ອເຊີນໃຫ້ເຂົ້າຮ່ວມຫ້ອງຮຽນ Entomology Berkeley ອອກໃນພາກສະຫນາມສໍາລັບການ weekend. Our destination was the ສີຟ້າ Oak Ranch ສະຫງວນ; ຫນຶ່ງຂອງສະຫງວນໄວ້ທີ່ໃຫມ່ກັບລະບົບວິທະຍາໄລຄາລິຟໍເນຍທີ່ຕັ້ງຢູ່ພຽງແຕ່ຢູ່ນອກ San Jose ກ່ຽວກັບການ Mount Hamilton (ແຜນທີ່ຂ້າງລຸ່ມນີ້). It was a joint spider and beetle class trip, hosted by Charles Griswold ແລະ 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 Tama SZUTA.
