The females form small balls out of the dead tissue with which they feed the larvae after hatching. Beetles of the genera Thanatophilus, Necrodes and Silpha also live on carrion, but without burying it. | | |
| | ...es of Brussels sprouts (Brassica oleracea) or white beets, especially in wet weather. The larvae feed on fungal threads (hyphae), algal cells, pollen, soil particles and substrates, which they find in excrement. They also prey on the larvae of bark beetles. They pupate in the soil. | | |
| | | There are specimens whose elytra are completely yellow and those in which they appear almost black. The legs of these beetles are also alternately black and yellow. These colour patterns, as well as those on their antennae, occuronly in the spotted longhorn. By rubbing their wing covers on their hind legs they can produce chirping sounds. | | |
| | ... develop in rotten wood from deciduous trees (beech, oak, birch, hawthorn) and occasionally from conifers (pines), which they feed on leaving long tunnels. They pupate at the end of these passages after the last larval stage and hatch later as adult beetles. | | |
| | Cerambyx cerdo are widespread in Europe, North Africa and Southwest Asia. Its numbers have declined dramatically in Central Europe. The great capricorn beetle is one of the largest longhorn beetles in Central Europe, reaching body lengths of 24 - 53 mm. | | |
| | ...lack in colour. At the bottom of the 1st and 2nd tarsal joints of the rear leg pair is a groove running horizontally. The tibia and feet (tarsi) are covered with short blackish bristles. The great capricorn beetle can be confused with other longhorn beetles like Cerambyx welensii or Cerambyx miles. | | |
| | ...arvae have now reached body lengths of 90 - 100 mm and pupate in the period from July to August in tunnels, which are about 80 mm deep. The pupal period lasts 4 - 6 weeks. In late September or early October of the 4th year, up to 200 great capricorn beetles hatch in a single tree. The entire development period of the larvae can be up to 5 years. | | |
| | Eleven-spot ladybird | | The eleven-spot ladybird [Coccinella (Neococcinella) undecimpunctata], also: 11-spotted ladybird, or eleven-spotted lady beetle, belongs to the family ladybirds (Coccinellidae), in the order beetles (Coleoptera), the suborder Polyphaga, the infraorder Cucujiformia and the superfamily Cucujoidea. Here, in the subfamily Coccinellinae, the tribe Coccinellini and the genus Coccinella, this species belongs to the subgenus Coccinella (Neococcinella).... | | |
| | ... bears a small, white spot on each of the outer sides. The wing covers (elytra ) are bright red, orange-red or orange. There are in total 7-11 black dots on the wings which are sometimes joined, or surrounded by a thin yellow ring. The legs of these beetles are black. | | |
| | The eleven-spot ladybird lives in habitats with sandy soils and, for the most part, sparse vegetation, where it hunts and devours aphids on different plant species. Their larvae also prey on small insects such as aphids. The adult beetles overwinter in leaf litter or in other plant waste. | | |
