...flying, or sitting in bushes, hedges or other flowering plants, where it feeds on pollen and nectar and sometimes also on the substrate of rotten plants. It can be found occasionally at dung heaps and also lives in other habitats. The murky-legged black legionnaire is defenseless against its enemies, as are all soldier flies. Females lay eggs individually on rotting plants. In this humid environment, the larvae develop. Their bodies are uniform in shape, flattened and tapered at the end. They...
