The queen european hornet, is 25-35 mm in length, the female workers, 15-25 mm, and the drones 20-30 mm. The crown of the head and the cheeks are a reddish-copper colou. The face is without markings. While the antennae of the drones comprises 13 segments, those of the females have only 12 segments. The eyes of the hornet are clearly visible and appear in the shape of...

...ir most striking characteristic is their long, segmented antennae, which often point backwards and may exceed the length of the body. They resemble ibex horns hence this insects name. As the antennae are so long, they must be anchored stably to the head which leaves little space for the eyes. In many species therefore, the eyes grow around the base of the antennae from behind. The bodies of these insects are elongated and are often larger in the males. Although sometimes the opposite is true.

...ed 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 front and sides of the head, which is clearly separated from the pronotum and the abdomen. The antennae are of an average length and are serrated. Gastrophysa viridula have sturdy legs with a greenish sheen.

Philonthus cognatus reach body lengths of 8-11 mm. Their elongated and partially hairy bodies are primarily black. The front section of their body has a greenish bronze shimmer. The rounded head is black with a dark green to bronze shimmer. The first segment of the antennae is yellowish in colour on the underside and black on the upper surface, while the following ten segments are entirely black. This is the most important identifying ch...

The colouration of the pronotum is the same as the head. An important feature for classification within the genus are the two lines of points, which run on the left and right sides of the middle of the pronotum. Both lines consist of 4 points. The scutellum is triangular in shape and slightly brighter....

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 are long black bristles on the back of the head and on the lower section of the face.

Adult Cleridae reach body lengths of 3-24 mm. Most species are long and oval in shape. Their bodies are shiny, bristly and very colourful, usually red, yellow, orange or blue. The head and pronotum are almost the same width. The neck shield is elongated. For their carnivorous diet, Cleridae have particularly strongly developed mandibles. The antennae in most species are club-shaped, widening at the end, in others they are serrat...

The larvae of Silphidae, with their broad, flattened, oval or elongated bodies often resemble woodlice. The surface of their bodies is hard. They usually have antennae with 4 segments. On each side of the head there are 2 - 6 secondary eyes. The larvae have 2 segmented appendages at the end of their abdomen, which support movement.

Rhopalus subrufus reach body lengths of 7-8.5 mm. Their reddish-brown bodies are elongated and widen at the hind end. The reddish-brown to yellowish-brown head is much wider than it is long and bears the large compound eyes and easily recognizable simple eyes. The threadlike antennae are about 4 mm long, yellowish-brown in colour and have club-thicked outer limbs. The mandibles are strongly developed. In t...
