\u00a0\u00a0 <\/strong>On July 4 evening, we posted this photograph, taken by Ian Cooper, asking if anyone knew what it was!<\/p>\n

\"\"Larva of elaterid beetle\u00a0 (Col.: Elateridae)\u00a0\u00a0 Ian Cooper<\/p>\n

\u00a0 Beetle expert Charlene Wood knew what it is!\u00a0\u00a0 It is the larva of an elaterid beetle (click beetles). Charlene writes:\u00a0 It\u2019s not in the Ampedini – they are lighter yellow and have a conical terminal segment. Some members of the former \u201cCtenicera group\u201d have the characteristics of the one photographed (brown-black with bifurcated, spiny terminal segment.<\/p>\n

Jochen M\u00f6hr writes from Metchosin: \u00a0This morning for the first time this year some abundance of moths.<\/p>\n

According to Chris, the light “was covered in those white guys”.\u00a0 When I got up, there were merely two Leucoma salicis<\/em> left, apparently a male and a female.\u00a0\u00a0 There were also one Callizzia amorata<\/em>\u00a0and one Emmelina monodactya<\/em>, both beyond the reach of the camera.\u00a0\u00a0Then there was a\u00a0Hemithea aestivaria<\/em>.\u00a0 My attempt to get a decent image with my usual camera equipment failed miserably, but my son Marcel Hartges saved the day with his I-phone. And, finally, there was another Eulithis xylina.<\/em><\/p>\n
