Mating takes place shortly after the moths have hatched from their pupae and may take up to two hours. Immediately afterwards, the fertilized females lay their eggs. The yellowish-white eggs are glued together inrings, using an adhesive brownish substance, onto the stems of plants such as common sorrel, sheep's sorrel (Rumex acetosella), field sagewort, ribwort plantain (Plantago lanceolata), Achillea, andworts (Minuartia), heron’s bill...
...lantago lanceolata), Achillea, andworts (Minuartia), heron’s bill (Erodium), blackberry (Rubus), and Agropyron or dwarf everlast (Helichrysum arenarium). They overwinter like this.
In April of the next year, the hairy caterpillars hatch from the eggs and start to feed on their host plant. They are sociable at first and later solitary. | | |
| Females are 20 to 28 mm in length. They overwinter in caves beneath the ground or in leaves. They lay their eggs in the spring, in mouse or mole holes, and even in walls or under rocks. The containments for pollen, honey and for the brood are built from wax. When the labor force hatches the nest expands to accommodate up to 500 bumblebees. Nests in soil can h...

The females often lay their eggs (individually or as a clutch) close to water. The Psychoda phalaenoides prefer to lay their eggs near faeces or urine. The larvae are slender and have a body length of up to 4 mm. They have a very distinctive head shape. The larvae of Moth flies live in a variety of habitats such as water, forest soil, moss, fungi or in heavily polluted wate... | | |

There are, among bumblebees, socially parasitic species (Cuckoo bumblebees) which leave their eggs in the nests of fellows and let the fellows care for their breed. The larvae of the cuckoo bumblebees danger the fellows’ own breeds since they eat the eggs and larvae. These species have no workers. | | |

The females build individual brood chambers inside the nest using glandular secretions and leaf pieces. ) They deposit pollen and nectar in each brood chamber for the future larvae before they start laying eggs. After oviposition the brood cell is closed with a seal. The hatched larvae feed on their food stock for some weeks before they pupate.
Some species overwinter as larvae, others as adult mason bees. The latter are already active in March. The...
...ed on their food stock for some weeks before they pupate.
Some species overwinter as larvae, others as adult mason bees. The latter are already active in March. The natural enemies of mason bees include the larvae of cuckoo beeswho feed on the eggs of the mason bees and their food stores.

Their larvae mostly live as parasites in the nests of some kinds of bees or wasps, for example, digger wasps or solitary wasps. The fertilized females lay their eggs in spring in the nests of their larvae’s hosts. This happens near the brood-cells which have adjacent food stores. The young larvae hatch after a few days and start eating the host’s eggs or larvae. Later on they feed on the stored nectar and pollen. Pupation takes place in a cocoon within the host’s breeding cell.

| | Lepidopterans begin life as caterpillars. They hatch from eggs and feed on plants before they pupate. After their metamorphosis, they hatch from their pupae as an adult butterfly (imago) to live on and store new eggs. Lepidopterans and caterpillars are able to camouflage themselves using colour and texture and even practice mimicry. | | |
| | The caterpillar is bluish-green with white stripes. This species produces 2 new generations a year. The eggs are laid on wild grasses, in May or June, and again, in August. The caterpillars hatch from their eggs after about 10 days and feed on the wild grasses. They are nocturnal. The caterpillars of the first generation develop into adults in about a month, while the second generation overwinter. After the caterpillars have pupated, it’s about two weeks un... | | |

Speckled bush-crickets have very short wings, especially the females, whose crescent-shaped ovipositors curve downwards. The females lay their fertilized eggs separately from each another, the eggs overwinter and the larvae hatch in the spring. | | |
| | Black garden ants mate in July. The males, whose life expectancy is only a few days, then die, while the young queen discards her wings and goes off in search of a suitable nesting ground. After the Queen has laid her eggs she looks after them for some time until the workers hatch , then they care for the brood. Later they also expand the nest above ground. The queens, who can live up to the age of 29 , lay several thousand eggs in their lifetime. After 14 days the larvae hatch . The larvae pupate after 2 weeks. After a month the adult ants hatch. | | |
