Ó phiobair Pericopinae. Thaifeadadh mé an físeán seo ar an láthair i dtuaisceart na Costa Rica cúpla bliain ó shin. Nuair a shroich mé síos a phiocadh suas an moth, bhí sé deacair a sheachaint noticing an iompar. An moth, Cheton angulosa (Erebidae: Pericopina) ((úsáidtear a bheith Arctiidae)), Tá meicníocht cosanta coiteann don ghrúpa – siad . . . → Leigh Nios mo: Chumhrán Leamhan
Ag Chris Grinter, on April 27th, 2010% Recently came across some ridiculously horrible taxonomy from China (.pdf). If you scroll down a bit you can see the english translation. At first glance this looks like a standard taxonomy paper with bare-bones species descriptions. You might even think to yourself, “huh, wonder why they are describing species from only one specimen”. Not the . . . → Leigh Nios mo: Tacsanomaíochta Teip
Ag Chris Grinter, on April 14th, 2010% I’ve been a bit remiss at posting regular challenges, so I’ll try to pick up the pace. Who can tell me anything about this butterfly? The most you’re getting is that it is from the Western half of the US. Credit for family, genus or species and ridiculous credit for subspecies and where it is . . . → Leigh Nios mo: Butterfly na seachtaine

The monarchs have started their spring migration north and you might even see one soon (not exciting if you live in FL or HI where there are year-round residents, or in CA where there are separate overwintering spots). Reports from their winter locations in Mexico however are dismal; with possibly the lowest . . . → Leigh Nios mo: Off with their heads!

Nach bhfuil an féileacán tipiciúil – ach is é seo an struchtúr fillte próitéine ó fiabhras hemorrhagic Mheiriceá Theas – an víreas Machupo. The article was found on Science Daily. A resemblance buailte le féileacán, b'fhéidir fiú Hesperiidae (photo from Butterflies of America).

Know seo féileacán? Tá sé ceart go leor, dhéanann aon duine i ndáiríre. Tá sé i ghéineas Apodemia (Riodinidae), ach tá an tacsanomaíocht an ghrúpa tubaiste… Ní gá agus fiú tús a chur orm ar an fospeiceas. Bhí grianghraf an t-eiseamal i mí Mheán Fómhair, chiallaíonn go bhfuil sé an chuid is mó dócha go mbeidh Apodemia mormo (Mormon) bunaithe . . . → Leigh Nios mo: Buttefly dúr na seachtaine
Ag Chris Grinter, 23 Feabhra, 2010% In ainneoin a bheith go leor disinterested i féileacáin, Tá siad deas chun breathnú ar. Seo físeán gur mór ag Guy a fhios agam síos i nDeisceart CA. Tá a chuid ama caite físeáin de saolréanna Lepidoptera suntasach go leor, agus tá sé seo ar cheann go háirithe álainn. Má gearrtha tú go dtí thart ar 3:00 i, feicfidh tú an iliomad . . . → Leigh Nios mo: Féileacáin Am-léig
