| The legs of honey bees are segmented, the hind legs play an important role in pollen collection. The first sector of the hind legs is greatly widened. On the inner side of this, is a thick line of hair which the bee uses to brush off pollen remains. Pollen is transported to the hive in "baskets" made out of an arrangement of hairs, also located on the hind legs. Like all bees, the honey bee has mouth parts, which can lap up sweet plant secretions (nectar and honeydew). Nectar is transported in part of the stomach called the "honey stomach". Other bees on the same level in the hive are suppl... | | |
| The basic colour of the upper surface of the hind wings is also brownish to reddish. It is also filled with yellowish-orange-red spots. Near the hem of the forewing whitish edge lines and 3-4 eye patches are as coexistent. The outer edge of the rear wing is concave. This is an important criterion t...
... the forewing whitish edge lines and 3-4 eye patches are as coexistent. The outer edge of the rear wing is concave. This is an important criterion to distinguish the canary speckled wood from other species of the genus Pararge. The undersides of the hind wings are ochre-coloured and slightly marbled with a brownish colour. In some sections, jagged lines follow the contours of the outer edge. Indistinct dark brown "eyes" with a light core can also be found on the undersides. The legs are gr... | | |

The hind legs have long hairs that aid in swimming. The water scavenger beetle prefers to live in and on smaller bodies of waters with sufficient sunlight. They are often found (as adults or larvae) floating on the surface of salt water or brackish water ...
... of salt water or brackish water (mixture of river and sea water). The adults eat rotten plant debris. They surface for air head first and trap air to breath under their wing covers (elytra) and "row" themselves along by alternating the hind legs, wiggling from side to side as they swim. Their eyesight is not very developed. Therefore, it is possible for the beetles to land on? reflective surfaces (wet or shiny car roofs, windows, etc.) having confused them with open waters.

| The upper surface of the hind wings of the males and females is white. The underside of the hind wings is likewise white but with yellow and black scales, which appear as greenish-white veining and serve as excellent camouflage.

...wings is likewise white but with yellow and black scales, which appear as greenish-white veining and serve as excellent camouflage. This effect is augmented by the male orange tip’s ability to rotate their forewings until they are completely behind the hindwings, so that when their wings are folded the characteristic coloured markings on the forewings are no longer visible. | | |
| | The hind wings of the painted lady also have a yellowish-brown base. Their colouration is similar to that of the forewing. However the spots on the outer edge are black in colour. The remaining spots are much fainter. The underside of the hind wings has a white base colour and is mottled with various shades of brown. On the outer edge, there are 5 eye-spots of differing sizes. A special characteristic of the painted lady is its screw-shaped flight pattern. | | |

Their wings have a metallic sheen and are various shades of brown in colour with slightly raised, white stripes. The front wings have 12 veins, the hind wings 10. The hind wings are rounded, similar in width to the front wings, and have a short fringe at the edge. The head has medium-length filamentous antennae. The proboscis is pronounced and has scales at its base. | | |

Their surface is densely dimpled and has a strong metallic, olive to bronze-coloured sheen. The hind wings are well developed and large. When the beetle rests, these wings must be folded in an intricate manner to fit under the wing covers. Spreading the wings is faster.

...e folded in an intricate manner to fit under the wing covers. Spreading the wings is faster. This is done with the assistance of the legs and a comb-like apparatus - located at the end of the abdomen - which is pulled along the underside of the hind wings to make them smooth. The abdomen is black and clearly segmented. Its surface can shimmer bluish to purple and can also have a metallic shine. | | |
| | ... reach wing spans of 80 - 100 mm. The former can have front wings which are over 40mm in length. The upper surface of the front wings is light brown. There are yellowish-brown to orange-brown bands of colour at the edges which on the top edge of the hind wings are extended in black bezel. The hinder area of the wings has the same markings. The hind wings have 2 short tails (spores) and a number of blue spots on the upper surface. The underside of both pairs of wings has a vibrant patchwork of stripes and spots. | | |

The small white reaches wingspans of 40 - 50 mm. Its wings are white with black spots. The front wings have grey to black tips. The undersides of the hind wings are grey to yellow. The caterpillar is a dull green colour with light stripes on the sides. | | |
