...lace on host animals, most commonly on hoofed mammals. The larvae always live parasitically in the interior of the host animals (endoparasites). Many species choose specific animals as the host - which body orifice of the host animal is chosen for egg laying also depends on the species. The hatching maggots (larvae) develop accordingly in the nasal mucous membrane, the throat or beneath the skin (subcutis) of their host animals. Egg laying can be a risky business for some females as the larvae hatch very fast and can attack their own mothers.
The approach of Bot flies can cause panic reactions in in cattle which often sustain severe injuries by running away into fences or... | | |
| | The fertilized females search for the pupae of butterflies to lay their eggs in. They bite the butterfly pupa and lay an unfertilised egg inside it. From this egg a male develops. If the females find a large pupa, they insert a fertilized egg in the same manner, from which a female develops. The hatched larvae initially feed on the blood of the butterfly pupae.
Later, they eat the whole insides of the pupae. After that the black slip wasp larvae pupate. 2 weeks later the young bla... | | |

The Anthidium manicatum lives on nectar and pollen, which it collects from plants such as Stachys, sage or motherwort. It nests in pre-existing holes in earth, masonry or wood. The females build individual cells for their eggs using pieces of leaves bound together by a substance they secrete. They then supply each cell with pollen or nectar, before introducing an egg into the cell. After egg-laying the cell is sealed. When the larvae hatch, they live on the pollen and nectar for weeks before pupating. The Anthidium manicatum reproduces once a year. The females are active from June to October, the males from June to September. On ... | | |

In spring they dig a nest, which consists of the main course (leading diagonally into the earth) and several short side galleries leading to the cells for the brood. They lay one egg only in each brood cell. The egg is located on a nectar pollen mixture, which (as food for the larvae) also is introduced to the brood cell. In summer the bees of the new generation slip. The parent female specimens survive until June.

Egg-laying is done either directly on the ground or in frothy cocoons. European locusts - in contrast to the tropical species - develop in 6 larval stages. Locusts usually spend the winter in the egg state but there are species which overwinter as larvae or adults. Orthoptera can be herbivores or omnivores. 2 species live on aphids. As a rule, Orthoptera are solitary animals, however, migratory locusts live temporarily in large swarms, and c... | | |
| | The mating season of the beetles is from spring to autumn and begins with copulation among the autumn generation of beetles from the previous year, which happens immediately after its release in March / April. Egg laying takes place in several sessions on the food plants of the larvae. The females attach each of the 100 to 600 oval, light to egg yolkyellow coloured eggs to the underside of leaves, in batches of 20-45. In its entire life cycle a female produces about 1,200 eggs. | | |

The females of the spring generation leave the soil in early May and lay their eggs, in June, on the leaves of different plants, such as cherry, pear, juneberry, mountain ash, hawthorn, quince, birch or roses. They scratch into the leaf tissue with their ovipositor, forming a small pocket in which a single egg is deposited. After 2 weeks, the larvae hatch and crawl sluggishly on top of the leaf and eat the tissue under scraping. They skeletonize individual leaf parts without the venation (ribs, leaf veins) and the lower epidermis. The dry leaves go brown ...
...s without the venation (ribs, leaf veins) and the lower epidermis. The dry leaves go brown or roll up. The larvae (cherry slug) produce no more mucus in the final stage of their development. In July, they drop from the leaf and immediately create an egg-shaped tissue below the soil’s surface, in which they quickly pupate. About 2 weeks later (in July and August), the adults of the 2nd cherry slug generation hatch, mate and lay eggs. The larvae (cherry slugs) are active from September to October. They also pupate and overwinter in the soil. They leave the pupae as adult cherry slugs in the spring. | | |

...he nests of different bee and waspspecies, for example Heriades truncorum and Ancistrocerustrifasciatus. Occasionally, oviposition takes place in butterfly cocoons, as observed in the case of the small tortoiseshell (Nymphalis urticae). Usually one egg is placed in each nest. Egg-laying often takes place in the nests of solitary bees of the genera Hylaeus and Osmia. A few days later the larvae hatch from their eggs. Firstly they eat the eggs or larvae of the host animals and later on any food supplies found there. | | |
| After mating, the females lay their eggs, 2-4 mm in length (depending on the species, inside scarab or weevil larvae. The host larva is stung in the neck or chest area and is repeatedly kneaded with the mouth parts (mandibles). The females then build tunnels in the earth, sometimes to a ...
...hen build tunnels in the earth, sometimes to a depth of one metre beneath the surface of the soil, and drag the permanently paralyzed host larvae into these, depositing them at the end. The host larva are thus stowed in an "incubator". One egg is placed on each host insect. During a period of one to three months, Scoliidae females can lay 50 or more eggs. After egg laying the female leaves the tunnel. | | |
| | The green shield bug does not overwinter in the larva state. Mating and egg-laying take place in early summer. A female lays up to 100 eggs. The larvae hatch and go through 5 phases of development, becoming adults in September. During these phases of development the larvae remain together. | | |
