At the end of the month, we are ready to depart madagascar for a scientific expedition, crossing the north and south of the Falklands for a month. Estimate the sheer number of photos, so stay tuned. Write the rest of the May 2016 Journey to the West before you leave.
--------------------------
A few days ago, the collection and investigation in Qinbei District was not satisfactory. Next, we went to the western part of Guangxi to collect, passing through Naya, Mingjiang, Pingxiang, and finally to Baise, and then returned to Nanning to return the car.
We rushed to the village in the evening, with green mountains and rivers, and the environment was beautiful.

Patrolling the stream, one is to check whether there is a dangerous place for night harvesting, and the other is to collect daytime insects by the way. After parking the car, we saw the hairy and cute larvae on the side of the road
There are also the larvae of these square ring butterflies.
The colored cerulia seen by the stream are also very beautiful
There is also a super mimetic inchworm, but unfortunately I found it when I moved a little.
Beautiful nature always has a scene of disharmony, see the villagers of the stream electric fish. Go up and communicate, the two electric fish is pure their own family to eat, father and son pure electric fish is entertainment activities. It is not good to be too refuted, euphemistically persuaded.
The two of them had been electrifying for more than an hour, and there were not too many fish. Borrow a photo to record it, afraid that there will be no chance of river pollution in the future. Various loach are more colorful, as well as loach, climbing loach, bass fish, mandarin fish
By chance, I saw a shocking pile of eggs by the stream, fushou snails, which had invaded such a beautiful and pristine place, alas.
Back in town for dinner, I saw a huge loach seller at a small restaurant on the side of the road. Thinking of the small Chinese loach in Beijing, such a large loach feels very novel.
After dinner, return to the stream where you were probing in the evening. There are more bugs.
weevil
Spotted moth larvae
Cover bugs
Turbulent frogs
Usu Tarsus Cyrenus (Lithochlaenius) rambouseki Lutshnik 1933, a species with a large north-south span. The pattern originated in the Ussuri River and was later found to be distributed all the way to Vietnam.
Claw mud armor
Peppercorns, larvae of the thorny moth
Probably a butterfly larvae, a little dragon man
Fishflies
Ant nymphs
At night, tigers sleep in groups.
The next day, the town had eaten egg sausage powder and rushed to the road. This egg intestine powder feels very similar to pancake fruit, that is, the flour is replaced by rice flour, and the rest of the methods are the same.
In the evening, we arrived at the river beach near the town of Mingjiang, which is a super large beach.
All kinds of tiger armor flew on the river beach
And my favorite little Li Bu Jia
longicorn
On the third day, we rushed to the Pingxiang Friendship Pass area to investigate
The water quality of the Sino-Vietnamese river is clear, and there are many Vietnamese girls on the other side who are actually playing in the river, and the beautiful scene is imagined by yourself. Just across the bank of the Chinese river, it is flocks of Parisian butterflies absorbing water on the mudflat.
Boundary river, peace and tranquility
Come over after dark at night, don't dare to play too bright flashlights, for fear of being smuggled. After hurriedly collecting, we left, although we are formal and legal scientific research investigation, but more is better than less, I am afraid that Xiu will encounter soldiers.
When I arrived at the river beach, I was stopped by the number of tiger armor on the river beach, too many and too many, and for the first time in my life, I had seen such a dense tiger armor. A few specimens were taken and left outside the specimen, which was enough.
See step beetle larvae preying on earthworms
The earth cow also climbed out
Small hemp-breasted green step armor
Colored rifle armor
XiaoLibu armor
Frightened and distraught, he hurriedly ended the collection by the boundary river. Actually, the collection is very good, and several good varieties have been collected. Back to Pingxiang to eat a late-night snack, hard for a few days, did not eat a decent meal, to boiled blackfish to supplement. Taste fabulous.
In the morning, Pingxiang got up and ate intestinal powder and went to Chongzuo City
Along the way, the Gäste landscape is very obvious
Wild spots in the small stone forest
The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and there are a lot of bugs. On the road, I saw a lot of red-headed coriander
This one was seen in the distance from the side of the road parking and thought it was a bee. It turned out that after discovering a key feature (with short forewings), it was understood that it was a magical short-winged celestial cow!! This type of elytra is short and degenerate, and the body mimics various bees, mainly mimetic bees. Pseudo-ecological photos in the camera box after collection, otherwise shooting so close in the wild, it will be easy to fly away.
Quite a few tree lizards along the way
There are also many quasi-infantry armor
Spotted wax cicadas are common in northerners, and longan chickens are common in southerners.
Partial whiskers
Flower fleas
Jack bauer
On the banyan trees on the side of the road, there are often various kinds of celestial cattle moving on the trunks.
Finally arrived near the Chongzuo Detian Waterfall. Nice environment to see under the bridge. Get ready to come over at night and have a look.
Live in the town of Shuolong near Detian Waterfall, a limestone mountain at sunset
The red gate to Vietnam is bordered
Nearby rivers saw many people filtering in the river with yarn nets, and when they walked in to see that they were filtering small fish, it turned out to be goby, which may be Ziling kissing goby.
Shuolong town dinner with fried fish and ant egg stall eggs. The number of ant eggs is pitifully small, and it is impossible to see it without looking closely. It's actually larvae and pupae of ants.
After drinking and eating, go to the river beach under the bridge. Brook crabs are rampant, with cubs, males, on land, all over the stream.
Green foot armor
frog
Butterflies are also much quieter at night, rare butterflies and spotted butterflies
Bug hunting
Another small tiger beetle cluster
weevil
Yellow Star Celestial Bull
Big eyes cute fireflies
Female fluorescent family, a very special class of luminous beetles. It emits brilliant stars that resemble cosmic starlight. Unfortunately, I can't shoot it.
Horned cicadas
Beautiful little Strong
Cicadas
The ant who was frightened and stood upside down felt so silly and cute, and the handstand was useful for predators. When I met this insect catcher, today is a good luck, let it go, silly cuteness makes me feel pity.
A bunch of decaying wood beetles on decaying wood
Horned elephants
Turtles
Watermelon worm small strong
Super beautiful lily nails
Concave lip step nails of the same kind
Concave lip armor, metallic color is very bright
All kinds of Celestial Bulls
A short fat large bamboo worm was also picked up on the night mining road
There is no interest in the Detian Scenic Area, there are many people and few insects, direct pass. Follow the border road to Baise City. There are almost no cars along the way, and the scenery is pleasant. Later, I learned that this road had long been sealed, and there were many signs of prohibition at the entrance, and we didn't notice any of them. We drove in in a daze, no wonder there were many pits and mounds on the road, we used shovels to fill or bulldoze, and we passed.
There are very few people walking, so the inside is becoming more and more pristine. There are actually many ladders of medicine pickers on the cliffs on the side of the road. Climbed down, trembling, feeling very unstable.
At noon, I arrived in a small town halfway through, a paradise. There is a lot of limestone in the river
Banyan trees and banyan fruit by the river
Arrive in Baise City in the evening, there are many fossils around Baise City, such as the trilobite fossils in Jingxi and the Quaternary freshwater biological fossils in Baise City. Led by local fossil friends, they came to the fossil site near the Baise Chengbi River to collect fossils. The fossils in this area are very close to the snail fossils in Nanning City, but the age and type are slightly different.
Sedimentary mudstones
Water rushes the stone
Good cemented mudstone snail fossil blocks
Densely packed snails form rocks
Freshwater mussel shells
spiral
Fossils of the genus Snail
Snails with neoplastic protrusions
More cattle appeared, and the freshwater crab fossils found in this snail formation were found at a friend's house!!!!!! Most of the crab fossils are now of seawater. Freshwater crab fossils are seen for the first time, and it is expected to be slowly and finely repaired in the later stage.
The whole Guangxi self-driving scientific expedition travelogue is over. The writing is relatively hasty, everyone forgives!
----------------------------------------
It is revealed that at the end of the month, we will go to Madagascar for a biological expedition of more than 30 days. The route crosses the north and south of the Falklands and involves more than 10 different natural habitats. It mainly investigates insects, fossils and marine life, and of course marine life is mainly tasted with the mouth.
Oh, wrong, it's the mouth to investigate. When there is a signal, send a map to send benefits to everyone. Here are pictures taken by friends in the Falklands.
