Keyword: Herbaceous | 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 2 von 3 1 2 3 | | | | The larvae resemble caterpillars. They have segmented legs attached to the chest and 6 to 8 pairs of hind legs. They have two simple eyes. The larvae feed on the leaves or the fruit of various trees, shrubs and herbaceous plants. They often appear in groups on leaves which they eat from outside in. They often “ride” on the leaves’edges while eating and - raise up their abdomen when disturbed. | | |
| | Rhogogaster viridis appear in the summer months, mainly in vegetation-rich areas (forests, gardens, parks and hedgerows), where they hunt and eat insectson shrubs or herbaceous plants. They also reduce the numbers of pests. | | |
| | | After mating, the fertilized females lay their eggs on the larval food plants. The larvae devour the leaves of various trees, shrubs and herbaceous plants. These include willow (Salix), poplar(Populus), alder (Alnus) and buttercup (Ranunculaceae). | | |
| | Tenthredo campestris prefer sufficiently moist habitats with bushes, such as forest edges or areas with many hedges, but they can also be found in dry environments. From May to July, they can be encountered on herbaceous plants (especially Umbelliferae) and various shrubs, where they feed, mostly on nectar. | | |
| | ... plants of their larvae. The larvae are yellowish after hatching and resemble caterpillars. They have 8 small pairs of legs attached to the abdomen. Their antennae have 4 - 5 segments. The larvae of Tenthredo campestris feed on the leaves of various herbaceous plants, trees and shrubs. Their food of preference is ground-elder (Aegopodium podagraria). When disturbed, the larvae curl into a "S" and resemble small snakes. En masse these larvae can cause major damage to shrubs and trees. | | |
| | Cantharis fusca are found from May to June at all altitudes up to 2000 metres. They live in forest edges, in hedge rows, and in meadows and fields. They are diurnal and usually sit on plants (grasses, herbaceous plants and shrubs) or flowers, in order to feed on small insects (living or dead aphids). Occasionally Cantharis fusca eat the young sprouts of the oak tree), or buds, leaves and nectar and pollen from various other plants. | | |
| | ...ear round. In the period from April to October, it occurs more frequently and is found in various habitats. They occur in particularly large numbers everywhere where old, rotting meat or faeces can be found. The adults often sit on trees, shrubs and herbaceous flowering plants, where they feed on nectar, sweet plant juices, ripe fruit juice or honeydew from aphids. However they also like the protein-rich fluid from dung or carrion. Some of the adult flies overwinter. | | |
| | The common green capsid prefers shady, moist habitats. It feeds on herbaceous plants, woody plants and crops. Some examples of food plants are: nettles, sorrel, berries, beets and potatoes. The eggs of the common green capsid overwinter in the bark of 1-2 year old woody plant shoots (eg blackberry). They are 1. 3 mm in length... | | |
| | ...il on, the larvae hatch. First they suck juice from the fresh leaves and the shoots of their host plants. The larvae (nymphs) are light green to deep green in colour and have orange-spotted antennae. In the 2nd to 4th larval stage, they swop over to herbaceous plants (potatoes, beets, strawberries, etc. ). | | |
| | 4 to 5 weeks after hatching, the development of the nymphs is complete. The winged juvenile bugs mate very quickly. Egg laying by the first new generation occurs in late June / early July singly in the leaf tissue of herbaceous plants. The nymphs hatch in midsummer. The specimens of the second annual generation during September turn over to the winter host plants. As adults, they for overwintering lay their eggs in the bark tissue of their host plants and the first new gen... | | |
