The murky-legged black legionnaire lives in humid forests or in forest edges. It can be seen in early summer on sunlit leaves, 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 ... | | |
| | While the males feed on the nectar of various plants, the females in Central Europe prey solely on the workers of honey bees (Apis mellifera). To detect prey they deploy their visual skills as well as their strong sense of smell. When a flying honey bee is clearly identified, the attack is immediate. The bee wolf catches the prey with its front legs and, using its sting, injects poison into the uppersurface of the waist of the prey. The correct place to sting is located with special sensi... | | |
| | | Females lay their eggs on sitting or slow flying host animals, especially on bees, bumblebees, wasps, or sometimes grasshoppers. They cling to the host animal and lay eggs between the segments of their abdomen. The hatching larvae then eat their way into the abdomen of the host animal, reside ther... | | |

The development of the larvae takes place in 5 stages and takes 20 to 70 days depending on climatic conditions Flying larvae are rarely seen. The larvae are not very eager to move and often hide in small cavities or between parts of plants, and when disturbed, show little inclination to leave. The andromeda lace bug is primarily regarded as a crop pest by humans. | | |

| | Due to its appearance the european hornet can be confused with some other flying insects, for instance, the hornet mimic hoverfly (Volucella zonaria), the moths Sesia bembeciformis and Sesia apiformis, as well as some members of the family Cimbicidae. Vespa crabro are easily confused with oriental hornets (Vespa orientalis)... | | |

Females usually remain hidden in the riparian vegetation and only rarely appear. They hunt in the evening and can only be observed flying in daylight during the mating season. Mating starts in the air and is completed after 5 - 10 minutes on a solid surface, on the ground or on plant parts. | | |
| | Fertilized females lay their eggs in flight, on sedentary or slow-flying hosts (bees, bumble bees or wasps). The larvae hatch and burrow into the abdomen of their host animals and feed on their insides until they are completely empty. They pupate and overwinter in the empty skin of the host. During the following spring, ... | | |
