Por Chris Grinter, em 29 de julho, 2010% Está bem, maybe not. But I did get a little jealous when I came across this article where I discovered a local San Francisco artist who is charging $60 a pop for “insect spreading classes”. I wonder how many really show up to the monthly class? This just in, Chris Grinter is offering an insect spreading . . . → Leia mais: Eu deveria começar a carregar
Por Chris Grinter, on July 27th, 2010% Just about time for another volume of Genius of the Press. Who will be first to spot the error here? Garantido, the information section of the california flat rate moving website is not exactly a source of top notch journalism…
Por Chris Grinter, on July 26th, 2010% Here are a few more images from my recent northern road trip, this time from western Idaho. Right outside the town of New Meadows were fields of flowers thick with life. It was some of the best day collecting I’ve done in years, and fellow road tripper Peter Jump and I discovered this . . . → Leia mais: This time, with a moth
Por Chris Grinter, em 24 de julho, 2010% No leste do condado Lassen, nas vastas montanhas alta de zimbro da fronteira da Califórnia e Nevada, existem rebanhos de “selvagem” cavalos, ovinos e bovinos. Par para o curso, a única planta com flor em torno era horehound (Marrubium vulgare). Apesar das flora não-nativos e (semi)mega-fauna, os insetos ainda estavam em casa.

Por Chris Grinter, on July 16th, 2010% A few months ago I was out collecting in western Arizona and failed to follow through with any images or updates on that trip. Bem, it was a success and well worth the miles to get there! I was searching for a Crambid moth in the mountains of the Kofa National Wildlife Refuge (special thanks . . . → Leia mais: Western Arizona

Over the next week and a half I’ll be driving up to Washington state for the annual Lepidopterists’ Reunião da Sociedade. It is located in the tourist-trap town of Leavenworth, which is a “Bavarian themed” diorama of postcard and clog shops. While I can never quite understand the appeal of themed towns, it is something . . . → Leia mais: On the road again
Por Chris Grinter, on July 1st, 2010% And now for the even more infrequently reoccurring series, vox populi! For those without scarring high school memories of latin class (through no fault of my teacher) I’ll bring you up to speed – the title roughly translates to “voice of the people”. Here is another old e-mail that I’ve been saving. It is a . . . → Leia mais: Vox Populi, Volume II
Por Chris Grinter, em 26 de junho, 2010% Bem-vindo ao volume oito da série inconsistente reoccurring, Gênio da Imprensa. Me deparei com este artigo recentemente sobre uma borboleta porto-riquenho endêmica. Quem pode me dizer exatamente porque este relatório é enganoso? Pode ser um pouco mais complicado do que o padrão GOP (Sugiro descartando quaisquer siglas previamente associados com essas letras). . . . → Leia mais: Genius of the Press VIII

Welcome to The Moth and Me #12, and my first blog carnival. Despite blogging for a few months I have yet to take a look back and reflect on exactly how I became enamored with lepidoptera in the first place.
