Keyword: Females | Overview - a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z | Seite 5 von 26 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 | | | | 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 sl... | | |
| | Some species of velvet ants are striking because of their unusual shape and colour which can be a form of mimicry, a warning or a kind of camouflage. The antennae of the males have 13 segments, the females 12. The males have normally developed compound eyes and simple eyes, while females have less developed compound eyes and no simple eyes. | | |
| | | Aeshna cyanea reach body lengths of 70-80 mm and wingspans of 90-110 mm. Their bodies are long and black and the females have bright green spots. The head is large and clearly separated from the thorax. The compound eyes are blue-green in the males and olive-green in the females. The chest section is mottled yellow to green and has black markings (base colour). Two yellow stripes are visible on the upper surface and sides of the chest. | | |
| | The females lay purplish-pink eggs in cocoons, at the edge of their web. The females watch over and care for their brood until the young hatch and become independent. | | |
| | The abdomen of the male has nearly the same markings, but is somewhat darker and reddish-gold in colour. The colour contrasts are weaker than that of the females, and there are much fewer white or silvery areas. Their underside is brown, with wavy borders and has a dark band running lengthwise. The legs differ significantly in their length, colour and shape, with those of the females are beige, brown or yellow-brown coloured, while those of the males appear darker in colour. Whilst the first, second and fourth pairs of legs are very long, the third pair of legs is relatively short. This pair helps the spider to hold onto thin tw... | | |
| | The bluebottle blow fly is active during the day from late April to September. While the males frequently sunbathe on walls or tree trunks, the females are avid flower visitors. The females can also be seen in feces and carrion. Their frequent presence in cadavers is of importance in forensic medicine. | | |
| | The males are around 4 mm in length, while the females are slightly larger, at around 7mm. The males have the typical leaf beetle shape. Females have a very enlarged abdomen just before they lay their eggs. Both sexes have a metallic sheen and are usually predominantly green. However, depending on the light, they can shimmer gold green, blue, red, purple or violet. The eyes are at the fron... | | |
| | After mating, the fertilized females lay their eggs inside or even on the surface of larger adult stink bugs. The female achieves this by holding the host insect in a complicated clamp apparatus. The females have no ovipositors. | | |
| | Paraplatypeza atra are small flies with body lengths of 2-2.5 mm. Their stocky, bumpy bodies are very dark at the top and light grey at the bottom and the females appear somewhat brighter than the males. Their heads are black (females: dark greyish-brown) and they have very large complex eyes, which at the males (until the mouth area) in the centre of their heads almost completely are pushed together and shell-like cover their heads sides. The eyes are bright red in colour. There... | | |
| | The chest of the males is deep black, while that of the females is dark greyish-brown, and both are (if you only mean the females take the ‘both are’ out) covered with black bristles, especially at the edges. The surface appears to be covered in grey "dust" in places. The upper side of the female’s abdomen is almost completely black and has this grey "dust"... | | |
