Sinulatan ako ni Rivers Cuomo ng isang kanta. Hindi masama, pero ngayon parang gusto ko yung mantis costume para sa Halloween. At siyempre obligado akong ituro na ang earthworms ay hindi insekto… [vimeo=14822451] Came across this article today care of Doug Yanega at UC Riverside, which spurred the search for further information. Sino ang maaaring sabihin sa akin kung ano ang mga iyon “mga bulaklak” actually are? 10 tumuturo sa unang nakahula ng tama… o marahil ilang kahanga-hangang premyo?

Growing up I have always had someone give me some kitsch object with insects on them, even playing cards. Well even last year I got another insect themed tie. (I don’t have the whimsey of PZ Myers and his awesome tie.)

A traveling malaria researcher came across an “electronic mosquito repeller” for sale in his in-flight catalog. Being an intelligent man, he realized this was total and utter BS. He also realized this product probably sells best while in-route to malaria ridden . . . → Basahin Higit pang mga: Linggo ng gabi rant: kung paano dapat gumana ang mga bagay.
Know this butterfly? It’s OK, no one really does. It is in the genus Apodemia (Riodinidae), but the taxonomy of this group is a disaster… and don’t even get me started on the subspecies. This specimen was photographed in September, meaning it is most likely to be Apodemia mormo (mormo) based . . . → Basahin Higit pang mga: Stupid butterfly ng linggo One of the perks of being an entomologist is traveling and collecting. I put a few thousand miles on the car every summer and these are two of the best places in Arizona to collect.

Here is a really great video by a guy I know down in Southern CA. His time-lapse videos of lepidoptera life cycles are pretty impressive, and this one in particular is beautiful.

If you can tell me this butterfly to species you get a high-five. If you know the subspecies, I’ll send you a new pack of #3 stainless steel pins! Only hint: It’s from the western USA. . . . → Basahin Higit pang mga: OK butterfly people, who am I? Kaya, how do I begin a new blog? Tough question, but perhaps this is a good time to show off a fun new species. This moth was collected last year outside of Santa Barbara, CA. The massive wingspan, at 15mm, makes it pretty large for a Gelechiid moth. The genus, Gnorimoschema (pronounced nor-a-mosh-ma), . . . → Basahin Higit pang mga: Inaugural post |
