The hind wings of the painted lady also have a yellowish-brown base. Their colouration is similar to that of the forewing. However the spots on the outer edge are black in colour. The remaining spots are much fainter. The underside of the hind wings has a white base colour and is mottled with various shades of brown. On the outer edge, there are 5 eye-spots of differing sizes. A special characteristic of the painted lady is its screw-shaped flight pattern.

Painted lady caterpillars reach lengths of 35-40 mm. Their bodies have a light yellow to greenish-brown base colour. On the surface, a fine, dark pattern can be discerned, which varies in form. The caterpillars have a shape like a ring and branching spines on each segment of their bodies. The rings lie between the spines and are (like the entire back)...

...rk pattern can be discerned, which varies in form. The caterpillars have a shape like a ring and branching spines on each segment of their bodies. The rings lie between the spines and are (like the entire back) usually more yellowish, while the base of the spines is more reddish. Other caterpillars of the same species are much brighter, with a high proportion of white.

Adult Stictoleptura cordigera reach body lengths of 14-20 mm and have a black base colour. The edges of their eyes extend to the base of their antennae. The pronotum is bell-shaped and narrows considerably at the anterior end. The scutellum is black.

After mating, the fertilized females lay their eggs at the base of grasses (Poaceae). After hatching, the maggots eat their way into and through the young sprouts and later feed on the young leaves of the grass plants. Further growth of such plants can be disrupted by this, or even prevented. The damage patterns...

... this, or even prevented. The damage patterns on grass plants vary. Ragged, cracked leaves, are often seen, as are swollen stems at ground level or near the ground, or the formation of 3 to 4 stalks on the same plant. Seedlings may be cut off at the base. The maggots reach body lengths of up to 5 mm. Approximately 30 days after hatching from the eggs, the maggots have completed their development and they leave the host plants and pupate.

Propolis
Propolis is a mixture of different substances, that is mainly found in the openings, crevices and cracks of hives. The base of propolis is a natural resin which is collected by honeybees, from buds or damaged areas on various trees, and is then processed and enriched. As bees need a temperature of around 35 degrees Celsius to live together in the hive, good condition...

...purmunda belong to the family fruit flies (Tephritidae). In Europe this species is common and widespread. The adult flies reach body lengths of 4-5 mm. Their wings (in terms of identification) have significant dark markings. They are dark at the base. In the upper half of the wings you can see radial bends. One of them reaches the rim and runs to the tip of the wing. The females have a short ovipositor on their abdomens.

Lygus pratensis reach body lengths of 6 - 7 mm. Their bodies are oval in shape and slightly flat. The males have a reddish brown to dark red upper surface, and the females, greenish-brown. The pronotum has a green base colour and the females’ has a dark spot on each side. The scutellum is heart shaped, bright in colour and has a black spot on its front edge, just behind the pronotum.

The small tortoiseshell can reach wingspans of 40 - 50 mm. The base colour of the wings’ upper surface is orange. The front edge of the forewing bears a pattern of black, yellow and white patches with 1 large and 2 small black spots in the middle. The underside of the wings is black and has markings in different gre...
