The beetle is Cicindela hirticollis hirticollis (could be a boldly marked ssp rhodensis as they readily intergrade along their boundaries) and is one of the most wide-spread species of tiger beetle we have in the US – so this isn’t what caught my eye. As a native Chicagoan and former Field Museum employee, 1921 sounded like a familiar date. I quickly Googled and found the reason why. Summer 1921 was the grand opening of the Field Museum’s new (and still current) location in Grant Park. This famous photograph by Charles Carpenter illustrates just how popular the museum was on opening day, Maй 2, 1921. The collector of the specimen is unknown and only left a label in their vintage tiny handwriting. We have the specimen here in Denver so the collector was likely not a native Chicagoan (those specimens would have ended up at the Field Museum or even the Smithsonian). I suspect, or at least like to imagine, that our beetle was collected by an amateur Entomologist while he was in Chicago for the opening of the new museum. The Denver Museum of Nature & Hayka (at the time Denver Museum of Natural History) was only 21 years old at this point in history, but nevertheless an equally popular if not smaller version of the opulent Field Museum. Our collections hold the majority of Edward B. Andrews Rocky Mountain collection from the 1930’s, so perhaps I can wildly speculate that this was one of his earlier specimens collected on a pilgrimage east. cBязaHHыe c

Buba na zanimljivoj vrijeme Chris Grinter, 3. veljače, 2014 Kao što sam bio fotografiranje i databsing na Cicindelinae iz zbirki Denver muzej prirode & Znanost sam došao preko ovog uzorka prikupljenog na 10. lipnja 1921, Chicago Illinois. Buba je Cicindela hirticollis hirticollis (mogao biti hrabro označena ssp rhodensis kao i oni lako intergrade zajedno njihovih granica) i jedan je od najvažnijih razgranate vrsta tigar buba imamo u SAD-u – tako da to nije ono što je uhvaćen moj oko. Kao izvorni Chicagoan i bivšeg zaposlenika muzeja Field, 1921 Zvučalo je kao poznata dana. Brzo sam u Google i naći razlog zašto. Ljeto 1921 bio velika otvaranje novih terena Muzeja (i još uvijek aktualni) mjesto u Grant Parku. Ova poznata fotografija Charlesa Carpenter ilustrira koliko je popularan Muzej je bio na dan otvaranja, Svibanj 2, 1921. Kolekcionar uzorka je nepoznat i samo ostavio natpis u vintage sitnim rukopisom. Imamo uzorak ovdje u Denveru, tako kolektora vjerojatno nije materinji Chicagoan (ti primjerci bi završio u muzeju Field ili čak Smithsonian). Sumnjam, ili barem bih zamisliti, da je naš buba je prikupljen amaterski entomolog, dok je bio u Chicagu na otvorenju novog muzeja. Denver Museum of Nature & Znanost (u vrijeme Denver Prirodoslovni muzej) Tek 21 godina u ovom trenutku u povijesti, ali ipak jednako popularan ako ne i manja verzija bogate Field Museumu. Naše kolekcije drže većinu Edward B. Andrews Rocky Mountain skup od 1930, pa možda sam mahnito se nagađati da je to bio jedan od njegovih ranijih uzoraka prikupljenih na hodočašće istoku. povezan
