|
| Maps prefer to live in damp areas with nettles, which blooms - in addition to those of the Velcro – are delivering food (nectar). In Germany, the map overwinters as a pupa. In April, the spring generation hatch, the males slightly earlier than the females. | | |

| ...eral 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.

| ...sts are often found in buildings, garages, sheds or blindboxes. When finished, nests consist of about 50 cells. They have no protective outer surface. Up to 30 workers live in a single nest. At the end of July, the adult females and males of the new generation appear. In September the wasps die with the exception of the fertilized young queens, which hibernate. | | |

| The white admiral is active from June to August. It produces 1 new generation a year and lays its eggs on the food plants of its larvae - honeysuckle and snowberry. The larvae overwinter in a piece of leaf formed into a kind of bag that serves as a hideout. The caterpillars emerge again in the spring and pupate in early June.... | | |
|
| In May or June, the females lay their eggs, often in flower buds. The larvae are roundish in shape and in the initial larval stages live socially with other larvae. They feed in the same way as the adults. By July, the next generation has already reached maturity. In southernCentral Europe, Lygus pratensis reproduce twice a year. The adults overwinter in moss, leaf litter or under tree bark.
Ichneumon wasps (Ichneumonidae) are the primary natural enemies of Lygus pratensis. | | |

| ...ussocks. From March on, they leave their hideouts and start hunting small insects. After mating, the fertilized females lay their eggs on the underside of leaves. The larvae hatch later and develop to maturity from May to June. The larvae of the 2nd generation develop within 8 weeks and are mature from September on.

| ...ult Celastrina argiolus reach wingspans of 23 - 30 mm. The female’s wings are slightly wider than the male’s. The upper surface of the wings is light blue and has black edges. The black colour on the edges is even more apparent in females of the 2nd generation. The undersides of the wings are whitish-blue with small, black patches and spots. | | |

| ...s. The females lay their eggs in late summer or early autumn on the upper surface of plant leaves. The eggs overwinter there. The larvae hatch in the spring. They develop in 5 stages, each finishing with a moult. In summer, the adult bugs of the new generation appear. These feed on caterpillars, beetle larvae, other bugs or aphids. | | |
