I have noticed steadily lower numbers of this beetle in recent years. Could their decline be due to this rampant heat and fluctuating winter extremes? Is Exomala orientalis outcompeting them? Are their prevalence merely proportionately reflective of the worldwide insect apocalypse currently underway? The first and last of these are essentially two sides of the same coin… and I’m sure all these factors and more play a role. |

Collected on 25 August. On 9/1 parasites emerged (see linked observation) of Braconid wasp sp. Caterpillar survived for another week or two before dying. |

Photos / SoundsWhatSilphium Borer Moth (Papaipema silphii)Observermossman13DescriptionAbundant in Silphium perfoliatum in young prairie restoration (no sign of larva or adults prior to this year). Collected 5 individuals on 6/10 to rear from stems based on plants showing signs of larvae present. Reared in original stems at first, then switched to carrot and potato. Of the 5 collected, two survived to pupate and ultimately eclose. Two shriveled up prior to pupating, one produced a fly pupa. Of the two that survived, one pupated on 8/16, the second sealed off a chamber within the potato on 8/20 and had pupated by 8/26. First adult eclosed the night of 9/18, second adult eclosed the night of 9/29. Subsequently released. All observations after the initial wild observation marked captive/casual and can be found in the Observation Group field. |

WhatSilphium Borer Moth (Papaipema silphii)Observermossman13DescriptionCollected and reared from Silphium integrifolium stem in young prairie restoration (stem borers not noted prior to this year). Collected one individual on 6/12 based on plants showing signs of larva present. Reared in original stems at first, then switched to carrot and potato. Pupated on 8/17. Did not eclose. An Ophion wasp sp. emerged from the pupa around 10/20. All observations after the initial wild observation marked captive/casual and can be found in the Observation Group field. |

Projects Using This Field
Coccinellidae with Laboulbeniales
I've changed all the interaction field names from "Interaction: " to "Interaction->" to stop them messing with the photo tag processing on photo import. When adding photos already tagged with fields to the "Add an observation" page, it was only grabbing the field name text after the colon and so not working properly.
Everything works now that the colon is gone, so long as you use a recognised taxon name. For example, if I tag a photo on my computer with "Interaction->Visited flower of=Rosmarinus officinalis" and upload it, it will get this field added with the taxon Rosmarinus officinalis.
That can save a lot of time if you''re maintaining your own photo library in your computer and tagging lots of photos there and uploading them all at once.
