Cinnabar moth (Tyria jacobaeae) caterpillar feeding on a Senecio. The seed of common groundsel is a good green food for canaries and finches and it is available all year round. [9] Senecio vulgaris seed has been found in the droppings of sparrows, and seedlings have been raised from the excreta of various birds. Seed has also been found in cow ...
Cinnabar is the more stable form, and is a structure akin to that of HgO: each Hg center has two short Hg−S bonds (each 2.36 Å), and four longer Hg···S contacts (with 3.10, 3.10, 3.30 and 3.30 Å separations). In addition, HgS is found in a black, non-cinnabar polymorph (metacinnabar) that has the zincblende structure. [5]
Cinnabar moths are about 20 mm (0.79 in) long and have a wingspan of 32–42 mm (1.3–1.7 in). Cinnabar moths are day-flying insects with distinctive pinkish-red and black wings. There is little variation in patterning, although on rare occasions the red markings may be replaced with yellow, or the forewing is entirely red with a black border ...
Cinnabar is the common bright scarlet to brick-red form of mercury(II) sulfide. Cinnabar may also refer to: Cinnabar, the color of the mineral; Cinnabar, Queensland, a locality in the Gympie Region, Queensland, Australia; Cinnabar moth (Tyria jacobaeae), a brightly coloured arctiid moth; Cinnabar Theater, a theater in Petaluma, California, USA
Its leaves are found only at the end of its youngest branches; its leaves are all shed every three or four years as new leaves simultaneously mature. Branching tends to occur when the growth of the terminal bud is stopped, through either flowering or traumatic events (e.g. herbivory).
Widely distributed in Eastern Northern America, it can be found from June to October, mostly on the ground in broadleaf and mixed broadleaf/conifer forests. It usually occurs scattered or in small groups. [5] It forms mycorrhizal associations with forest trees and shows preference for acidic soils. [6]
Cystodermella cinnabarina is found fruiting in coniferous and deciduous forests, [11] on ground among moss, grass and litter. Being a saprotrophic fungus, it decays dead organic matter. It has been recorded under pine (Pinus nigra, Pinus pinea), oak, spruce (Picea orientalis), fir (Abies cephalonica) and chestnut (Castanea sativa) in Greece and ...
It is the high temperature form and trimorphous with cinnabar (trigonal structure) and the higher temperature hypercinnabar (hexagonal structure). It occurs with cinnabar in mercury deposits and is associated with native mercury , wurtzite , stibnite , marcasite , realgar , calcite , barite , chalcedony and hydrocarbons .
