Blue Oak Ranch Reserve

Muutama viikko sitten olin kutsuttu liittymään Berkeley entomologia luokan kentällä viikonloppuna. Our destination was the Blue Oak Ranch Reserve; yksi uusimmista varantojen Kalifornian yliopiston järjestelmän sijaitsee vain ulkopuolella San Jose Mount Hamilton (kartta alla). It was a joint spider and beetle class trip, hosted by Charles Griswold ja Dave Kavanaugh respectively. And despite a frost on Saturday night we managed to find some interesting insects. You’ve already seen my images of the Scaphinotus (Carabidae), but here is a larger set of images from both myself and colleague and fellow blogger Tamas Szuts.
