Mature larvae are able to secrete a substance which drives away their competitors ,especially adult beetles of the same species, from the leaves of the forage plants. At the end of the third larval stage, the larvae dig down into the soil to a depth of about 2cm and pupate. After 6-9 days the adult beetles hatch from their pupae. They have a flight radius of about 10 metres. In late autumn they begin eating intensively and continue this over a period of a few days in preparation for the winter. When the beetles have consumed enough nutri...

Adult rose leafhoppers fly away when disturbed, while the nymphs make long jumps to escape. Rose leafhoppers reproduce twice a year., They can breed especially well in warm summer weather. The eggs of the second generation overwinter in the bark of the sp...

...ose leafhoppers reproduce twice a year., They can breed especially well in warm summer weather. The eggs of the second generation overwinter in the bark of the sprouts of roses. The larvae, hatch in the spring and possess only rudimentary wings. The adult cicadas (fully developed and equipped with wings) move to their summer host plants in June, as well as to plants of the genus Capsicum. From mid-August to September, the females migrate back to the roses to store their eggs in the bark, which then o...

Adult tachina flies feed on honeydew, nectar, vegetable juices, feces or on carrion. Their larvae feed parasitically on all kinds of larvae, pupae and adult insects. This includes caterpillars, beetles (larvae and adults) and the larvae of various Diptera and arthropods. The larvae of the tachina flies enter their host animals in different ways. Firstly through ingestion of their eggs, secondly through oviposition directly on the host animal, or thirdly through the...

The caterpillars of the last generation overwinter. They pupate in spring of the following year and emerge as adult butterflies in May. The adult brown argus butterflies are active from May to June. During this time they mate and reproduce. The fertilized females always lay their eggs on the host plants of their larvae, on the underside of the leaves. The development from egg to caterpillar t...

...changes and shades of green start to predominate in the colouration. In the 5th stage (8 days) the wings begin to grow. The abdomen is yellowish green now and has red spots on its axis in the middle. During the 8th day the final moult occurs and the adult bug emerges. After another 4 weeks, the southern green stink bug is sexually mature. The last generation a year, overwinter as adult bugs.

Common to all wasps is the black-and-yellow warning colour of the body. The Vespinae live in states or parasitically as so called cuckoo wasps. Adult Vespinae mainly feed on small parts of dead or living animals, from insects, pollen, plant juices and from nectars. Their larvae are mainly fed on animal meat.

...ch a body length of 3.5 to 20 mm with a wing span of 20 to 40 mm. They have 2 pairs of wings which are almost identical. In some species the wings are much smaller and in others the larger pair of wings is missing. A notable characteristic of the adult insect is the elongation of the mouth parts; this has earned it the name „Schnabelfliege“ in German (Schnabel = beak ; Fliege = fly). The larvae look like caterpillars, but have real legs on the chest and abdomen segments. A fork placed on the la...

The adult insects reach a length of 12 to 15 mm. They are green-brown to bronze in colour. However after the winter, their colouration is light green. Their bodies are covered in small dimples and spots, their feet are brownish in colour, and the outer...
