| The individual body segments of insects are solid and are protected with plates of Chitin (back, abdomen and side plates). Insects breathe with the help of tracheae, in addition to various glands in the spaces between these plates. Insects sense their environment with their facet eyes, antenna and sensors, which register heat, humidity, shock and vibration. | | |
| | ...he Nematocera have a bad reputation amongst humans because their bites can be painful and can cause allergies and transmit germs, the crane fly (larval stage) is regarded as a useful animal, because the diet and elimination behaviour of the larvae help to improve the soil. | | |
| | | ...hin legs. A distinctive characteristic of these spiders, is the "comb" or “brush” on the feet (tarsi) of their 4th pair of legs, which is made from hairs (setae). The hairs are bent and have fine "teeth" along the edge. They help the spider to wrap its silk around the prey. Hence the name "comb-footed spiders". | | |
| | ...llic sheen or are brightly coloured.The antennae have 3 to 7 segments (depending on the species) and widen at the top. By increasing blood pressure, these fins will increase even too. Some species have very broad, externally serrated forelegs, which help them when digging in the ground. | | |
| | The first pair of legs are strongly built and ciliated. They help the Scoliidae to bury themselves in the ground. The burial, if it is not for the night only, especially in the female specimens allows access to the soil or rotting wood, where different species of scarab larvae live, which are amongst the preferred... | | |
| | The flesh fly maggots, also called "flesh worms" hatch immediately at suitable temperatures. However, it may be several hours before they begin eating the meat. To aid with this process they are able to liquefy the meat with the help of enzymes. The larvae breathe via respiratory openings at the end of the abdomen. After about a week, the larvae pupate. The pupae are able to overwinter. | | |
| | Their bodies have bizarre shapes. Their indentations, spots and stripes, as well as their colouration, help them to camouflage themselves. Their colouration ranges from snow white with red stripes, to pale green, brown, bright yellow or emerald green and they are often attractive looking. The body surface can also be longitudinally striped or spotted. Dia... | | |
| | ...nsidered a nuisance by humans. The larvae are social and feed on rotting waste materials. They are found under bark, in dead wood, fungi or feces, according to what species they are. Some species live as guests with ants. The larvae breathe with the help of tube-like elongated openings. At the end of the last larval stage, the larvae pupate inside their outer skin. Within the chrysalis, the Scatopsidae breathe through tubes, which branch off from the thorax. | | |
| | Eristalis lineata are active from April to October. The females lay their eggs in shallow, standing, muddy waters with a lot of decaying plants. After hatching, the larvae live in this water which they help to clean by eating rotting plant substrates. | | |
