Por Chris Grinter, el 31 de agosto, 2011% Ha habido un debate continuo en los últimos años de qué tan pocas mujeres permanecen en la ciencia. Aunque no voy a sumergirse en ese tema aquí, se pueden encontrar grandes discusiones aquí, aquí, aquí y aquí. No obstante, no creo que nadie discute sobre por qué las mujeres no entran en la ciencia en el primer lugar, . → Leer más: Mujeres en la Ciencia Me gusta: Me gusta Cargando... Por Chris Grinter, on August 29th, 2011% Schinia villosa This Monday’s moth is a duo of Schinia villosa (Noctuidae) resting on what I am assuming is their host plant (Erigeron sp.). I snapped this shot around 9,000 feet up on the Kaibab plateau in Northern Arizona last month. A fire must have burned the area a few years ago because . → Leer más: Lunes Moth Me gusta: Me gusta Cargando... Por Chris Grinter, on August 24th, 2011% A month ago or so the California Academy of Sciences launched a full fledged expedition to the Philippines. While the majority of the cash was spent on a clipper ship and dive teams, there was a terrestrial component. While I didn’t get to go (and sat at home and pouted), I did talk some of . → Leer más: Insects of the Philippines I Me gusta: Me gusta Cargando... Por Chris Grinter, on August 22nd, 2011% Last week Jim Hayden guessed the moth I posted was an Australian Oecophoridae. It was a good guess because there are so many large and stunning moths in this family from Australia. One of the best has to be this one, Wingia lambertella (Oecophoridae), captured on Black Mountain in Canberra October 23, 1955 (CAS collections). → Leer más: Lunes Moth Me gusta: Me gusta Cargando... Por Chris Grinter, on August 19th, 2011% This GOP is less of a challenge and more of a simple roundup of miserable stock photography. Alex Wild and others have long ago pointed out the massive failings of many stock photo sites – but here is a brief and painful lep roundup using Google. Step 1: Image search “moth on flower”.

Por Chris Grinter, on August 15th, 2011% ANSWER: This wasn’t easy – but this large and beautiful moth was from Australia and is in the family Xyloryctidae (Philarista sp.). We have a handful of representatives of this group here in the US and Ted MacRae over on Beetles in the Bush has a few great photographs of them. Somehow I think we . → Leer más: Lunes Moth Me gusta: Me gusta Cargando... Por Chris Grinter, on August 14th, 2011% These large and interesting Lycidae beetles (Lycus fernandezi) were abundant in south eastern Arizona a few weeks ago. Constantly flying between flowers and moist sand they were making for easy photography targets. I thought to myself “here is a great opportunity to catch a beetle taking off!”.

I am guessing this is a Choreutidae because of the way the wings are held while dancing – although it’s too fast to really get a clear look. Given that it’s from a fauna I’m totally unfamiliar with I could easily be wrong – so please correct me . → Leer más: Dancing Moth Me gusta: Me gusta Cargando...

Por Chris Grinter, on August 8th, 2011% This week’s moth is a video of a dancing micro from the Philippines (taken by Warren Laurde). As you might suspect this is a mating display that ends in a pretty spectacular headstand. There are lots of other microleps that have dancing or display behavior, but there are almost no other videos online . → Leer más: Lunes Moth Me gusta: Me gusta Cargando...

Dé Luain Leamhan Ag Chris Grinter, ar 22 Lúnasa, 2011 An tseachtain seo caite Jim Hayden guessed go raibh an moth sa phost mé Oecophoridae hAstráile. Bhí sé ina buille faoi thuairim maith toisc go bhfuil an oiread leamhain mór agus néal sa teaghlach ón Astráil. Ceann de na fearr go bhfuil a bheith ar an gceann seo, Wingia lambertella (Oecophoridae), gabhadh ar Sliabh Dubh i Canberra Deireadh Fómhair 23, 1955 (Bailiúcháin CAS). An beatha larbhaí ar Eucalyptus – agus mé mian amháin a bhí an speiceas a tugadh isteach anseo. Tá na crainn seo ionrach pesky i ngach áit, cén fáth nach bhfuil an moth chun dul leis?
