내일 무대를 시작 1 현장 작업 / 미친 운전과 휴가 시간. 나는 여행이 상태 수집에 초점을 맞춘 것, hitting southern Texas just in time for the tail end of fall flying moths in the genusSchinia. 그러나 microleps 내 주요 관심사입니다, and I’m sure I’ll come back with hundreds of stunning specimens. I’ll be taking as many photos as I can, and I hope to post an update as I hit Chicago just in time for Halloween. Of course if I do see something too incredible, I’ll have to try and post from my cell right away. As for stage II, it will be a visit with my family and friends back in Chicago, and stage III will be a quick drive back to San Francisco across I-80 with fingers crossed to avoid the snow. If anyone is en-route and wants to join me in the field, send me an e-mail!
이번 주 (나는이 매주 함께 계속 것처럼) GOP는 의견 제시 나에게 전송 된 “전복“. 기여 해주셔서 감사드립니다! 훨씬 쉬워처럼 만든다, 나는 강력하게 다른 독자의 미래 제출을 장려.
내 블로그에 새로운 사람들을 위해 – the Genius of the Press series is a contest to see who can identify the blatant errors of the press. So what’s wrong with the article below?
내가 건너 왔어요 이 흥미로운 장치 및 인스턴트 직감 반응을했다.. “물론 바보 물 전구는 파리를 격퇴하지 않습니다, 이것은 사기입니다!”…
숨…
OK 끔찍 회의입니다. 사실, 그것은 냉소 그리고 그것은 의심이 호출되고 싫어 그냥 무슨. 또한 너무 쉽게 일이 뭔가 – 나는 유령이 존재하지 않는 것을 꽤 확신, 더 강력한 증거는 없었다, 지금까지. 하지만 유령의 이야기를들을 때마다 그냥 몇 가지 설득력있는 설명의 생각을 자세히 살펴없이 사건을 기각 할 너무 유혹. 우리는이 작업을 수행 할 때 우리는 방을 가로 질러 압축하는 영 구를보다 빠르게 우리의 얼굴에 다시 던져 잘 믿는 연구자에 사료를 줄. 사상 처음으로 진짜 유령을 발견하는 것은 매우 거의 불가능하다; 아직 대답은 항상 가장 확실한 가설하지 않고 당신은 매번 동안 얼룩말 우연히 발견 할 수 있습니다. 요점은 조사가 회의적 할 수있는 유일한 방법이라는 것이다.
다시 버클리 내 매일 출퇴근에, 나는이를 발견 한 (cruddy 이미지에 대한 사과). 사실, 나는이 소수의 샌프란시스코 주변에 팝업이 날 때마다 내 머리를 찢어 할 수 있습니다 본 적이. 내 블로그에 새로운 사람들을 위해, this goes back to my언론의 천재 X. I’m also not the only one to havenoticed thismexican butterfly billboard taxonomy fail.
와우 내 마지막 게시물 이후 몇 주되었습니다, 나는 너무 오래 가게하는 데 조금 당황. 나는 무엇을하고 지 냈는데? 전체 사항 없음. 더 인상적인 수집 여행 없습니다, 새로운 종하거나 발견. 사실은 내가 성기를 해부 현미경에 앉아 또는 기생 파리를 데이터베이스 화 한 것. I’ll have to do a followup post to delve into those a bit more…
But for now, here is a picture form last August. I was standing on an open stretch of Chihuahuan desert right outside of Douglas Arizona; a whopping one mile from the Mexican border. I arrived that evening with my collecting colleague, microlepidopterist Peter Jump, and we had just set up camp as the roll of thunder grew close. Aside from the extinct cinder-cones surrounding us and an occasional illegal immigrant, we were the only (and highest) thing around for miles. But the lightening was too hard to resist, I need a picture! But I didn’t have a cable release, nor a tripod, or even a good camera. So what to do… I chose the genius option of standing outside for 40 minutes with my Canon point-and-shoot. I missed 99% of every shot I took, while with every passing minute the lightening grew closer. 드디어, I stumbled upon this decent image. The storm ended up being brief, we huddle in the car (that you can just make out in the picture) while the lightening approached and it drizzled on us for an hour then moved on. Collecting that night was impressive. There were so many moths in the trap that everything had gotten beaten to bits. I managed to rescue a handful of good specimens, but lesson learned for next time.
나방이 없는 주말은 나비목이 미친 짓을 하도록 이끌 수 있습니다. 거미 사진을 찍을만큼 미쳤어. 주말에 나는 동료 곤충 블로거와 함께 동부 시에라로 갔다., 동료이자 고고학자, 타마스 SZUTA. I was on the quest for more specimens of a new Hepialidae of which you may be familiar with from anearlier post. I heard reports from others that at elevations of 11,000’ there was still a significant snowpack even by the end of July. I figured the moth may be flying late this year, if at all. I was hoping to catch the end of summer and the moth both in perfect synchronization. Such was not my luck. I awoke on Saturday morning, sat upright, and brushed the frost off of my sleeping bag while desperately willing myself to brave the morning chill. Temps must have been pushing 25 degrees, a sign that autumn had return to the mountains. Two traps, a black light sheet and running around at dusk yielded zero Hepialidae andonly ten moths in total (four species).
And so I was encouraged by Tamas to actually photograph a non-lep, something that I should do more often. He had joined me eager to not only see the Sierra for the first time, but to find the beautiful Salticidae – Habronattus americanus. This little jumper can be found in the western states in rocky areas above 7,000′. After an hour or two of searching, Tamas finally captured a stunning pair. I must agree that this is a beautiful little spider. Visit his blog (in Hungarian) to see some of his stunning images as well.
