Re: Questionable Question Marks

The appearance of various Nymphalid species may be migration (e.g., Vanessa) or it may be just massive population explosion every summer. It depends on the species; some have no qualms about flying hundreds of miles "just because".
If of great interest, it's best to pick one species and start reading/ researching. Each Nymphalid species mentioned may well behave differently in Wisconsin.
Tiger swallowtails, according to iNat, seem to have been observed in number this year from Chiraq NW into Wisconsin. It likely is linked to any early warming this year. They, like many species of animal, somehow know whether it's going to snow again or not.

Mystery moth

I tried an image search, (for the first time) and found something similar. Gonometa sp. looked close, but not exact.
Amazing cocoon construction, hard as a rock. All the material is identical, and no others have hatched.

I was unsure if it was happening to others, and the way to find out is to ask. As good as my provider claims to be, one never knows,
streaming takes a nap often enough, and the official answers from tech support are usually laughable, or simply annoying.

Questionable Question Marks
by Nymphalis antiopa » Sun Apr 28, 2024 3:23 am
Wisconsin this year had an exceedingly warm early spring. The usual migrating Vanessid butterflies showed up around 2-4 weeks early in unusually large amounts. Colias and Papilio glaucus also showed up unseasonably early.
Question Marks in Wisconsin are weird. Instead of overwintering in their fall form which they do in much of the United States, they migrate up to the southeast and west in their summer form during May (with black hindwings) and spread northward. These adults then die off and we see the real summer form emerging in late June. We then see the crisp, fall forms in August and September before disappearing. They rarely show up after early October (although they have been seen as late as November.) None of this makes sense to me. What brood are these supposedly summer forms migrating up in May? Where are they flying from? I see overwintered, fall forms in Illinois and Missouri. But not Wisconsin.
This year has been even weirder with summer forms showing up in pristine condition in early April. Does anyone have any ideas?

I remember seeing a Karner Blue habitat being torn to pieces by ATV routes cutting right through. I remember finding many dead Limenitis carcasses on the roads. They don't complain about that as much as they do with collecting.

PS. Most of the time Insectnet loads normally, but every so often this error recurs.

It seems to affect the whole insectnet website, but we haven’t found the reason behind with Inmotion team…

Does anyone else get a message like this " resource limit reached" this happens from time to time, and the page simply won't load ?
Conjecture is welcome, but our internet connection is a good one with faster than typical speed, and the computer I use is 6 months old.

Before you move in, try some bug bombs, or traps, professional pest control is dubious.

Re: A parade of Catocala moths

(Catocala lacrymosa) captures featuring that
"marbled" appearance which only shows itself
periodically here and there. Quite noticeable
against the general torrent of "typical" ones
that I've encountered.
