Gan Chris Grinter, ar Fai 2il, 2010% Am y pedwar penwythnos diwethaf nawr rydw i wedi bod ar drywydd gwydd, am un gwyfyn, Heliolonche celeris. Mae'n Noctuidae bach hardd gyda blaenddrychau pinc a hindwings oren-goch syfrdanol. Nid yw'n dod ar ei draws yn aml iawn a dim ond ar hyd mynyddoedd gogledd California sy'n bwydo ar Malacothrix floccifera – blodyn endemig CA.. Pob taith . . . → Darllen Mwy: The Art of a Goose Chase
Gan Chris Grinter, on April 23rd, 2010% I’ve just illustrated my method for spreading microlepidoptera, go explore the techniques page. Who is courageous enough to attempt it?
Gan Chris Grinter, ar Ebrill 21ain, 2010% I’ve been busy spreading microleps over the last few days, and here is a small selection from my summer collecting trips. Still have at least another 200 to go before catching up on my backlog. I am working on illustrating just how to spread these moths… felly aros diwnio.

Gan Chris Grinter, ar Ebrill 7fed, 2010% Roedd hi'n ddiwrnod hyfryd heddiw yn ardal y bae, felly es i fyny i Napa a Dyffryn y Pab. Roeddwn yn sgowtio rhyw diriogaeth newydd ar gyfer gwyfyn blodau bach, Heliolonche celeris, mae'n debyg ei fod yn aros am fwy o dywydd braf cyfagos i ddod i'r amlwg.

Gan Chris Grinter, on April 5th, 2010% The clouds broke this afternoon in San Francisco and the sun began to shine. The upcoming warm weather induced an all too familiar feeling, one that I should be out collecting insects and not sitting indoors!

Gan Chris Grinter, on April 1st, 2010% A continuation of the aquamoth series, this time with video from Science Friday! Oes, I have to link it because wordpress won’t embed… Diolch Ted, figured it out!
Gan Chris Grinter, ar Fawrth 29ain, 2010% Ychydig o ddelweddau o fy nhaith gwyfyn penwythnos i lawr i Shell Creek, Sir San Luis Obispo. Mae'r gwanwyn cynnar ar hyd yr arfordir canolog yn syfrdanol, ac yr oedd y ffyrdd cefn yn orlawn o wylwyr blodau. Roedd yna ddwsinau o geir yn cael eu meddiannu gan deuluoedd allan ar benwythnos mewn car, roedd llawer wedi pecyn bwyd ac eistedd i wylio'r . . . → Darllen Mwy: Afonydd o Aur
Gan Chris Grinter, on March 25th, 2010% I came across the full-text PDF of the amphibious moth article and extracted the tree showing the radiation of this species group and probable evolution of the amphibious traits. Interesting to note the case shape, and each moth is endemic to its own volcano in the Hawaiian archipelago.

Gan Chris Grinter, on February 21st, 2010% Felly,, 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.
