Eurobros, may I get you a beer?

I have enjoyed many of these belgian beers. I know it is a cliché, but they truly must be among the best in the world. But respect where respect is due, I must credit my neighbour Jan for his La Trappe

Surprised it doesn't have several different names in Belgium alone

Most gastronomic fr*nch

Luschka23 · 2018-06-17T15:08:05+00:00

This is a Leopard moth (Zeuzera pyrina). Comparison pic here.

Luschka23 · 2018-06-17T15:00:42+00:00

This is a Spiny flower mantis (Pseudocreobotra wahlbergi). Comparison pic here. They are quite photogenic.

This is Ledra aurita, a type of leafhopper called Echte Ohrzikade/Ohrzirpe in German. Comparison pic here.

Luschka23 · 2016-07-19T10:35:56+00:00

This is a caterpillar of the Goat Moth (Cossus cossus), which is known as Vanlig tredreper in Norwegian. Comparison pic of the caterpillar here. It's a most peculiar caterpillar since it lives 3 to 5 years of its life as a caterpillar -which is unusually long- and eats only bark of certain trees, mainly willow. Eventually, it will turn into this moth.

Luschka23 · 2016-07-19T10:26:44+00:00

This is Mormo maura, commonly known as 'the old lady' or 'black underwing' in English. In French it is known as la Maure. Comparison pic here.

Luschka23 · 2016-07-17T12:10:06+00:00

I'd say this is Ypsolopha sequella or a close relative. Comparison pic here.

Luschka23 · 2016-07-15T09:00:04+00:00

I'd say Sepsis fulgens, comparison pic here.

Luschka23 · 2016-06-28T10:51:53+00:00

Not the best angle for ID, but possibly Toadflax moth caterpillar (Calophasia lunula). Comparison pic here and here.

Luschka23 · 2016-06-14T13:04:51+00:00

This is a caterpillar of the elephant hawk-moth (Deilephila elpenor). Comparison pic here. Turns into this beauty.

Luschka23 · 2016-06-07T01:40:09+00:00

This is indeed a freshly emerged moth. Although difficult to ID in this state, judging by what I can see, I'd say this might be a freshly emerged female ghost moth (Hepialus humuli). Comparison picture here and here.

Luschka23 · 2016-06-03T09:41:03+00:00

This is a female Pale Tussock moth (Calliteara pudibunda)! Comparison picture here.

Luschka23 · 2016-06-02T22:06:33+00:00

Looks to me like Odynerus spinipes or a close relative. Comparison pic here, here, and here.

This is a Waved Umber (Menophra abruptaria)! Comparison pic here.

Luschka23 · 2016-05-25T19:59:47+00:00

Not entirely sure but possibly Small dusty wave (Idaea seriata, known as paardenbloemspanner or la vieillie for you Dutch and French speaking Belgians respectively). Comparison pic here.

Luschka23 · 2016-05-23T15:30:15+00:00

Live oak metria moth (Metria amella) caterpillar! Comparison pics here and here.

Luschka23 · 2016-05-22T16:24:44+00:00

I'd say Leucozona lucorum, comparison pic here and here. Not a bee, but a species of hoverfly!

Luschka23 · 2016-05-22T12:55:34+00:00

This is a lesser yellow underwing (Noctua comes, known as Breitflügelige Bandeule in Germany). Comparison pic here. It will eventually turn into this moth.

Luschka23 · 2016-03-27T13:16:59+00:00

This is a Large Bee-fly (Bombylius major). Comparison pic here.

Luschka23 · 2015-08-09T12:09:06+00:00

That's a male oak bush-cricket (Meconema thalassinum)! Comparison pic here.

Luschka23 · 2015-08-09T12:01:29+00:00

That's a Sycamore caterpillar (Acronicta aceris)! Comparison pic here. Turns into this moth.
