The first new generation is active from April to May, and the second new generation, from September to October. The females of the first generation lay their eggs on the larval food plants in late May, and the females of the 2nd generation oviposite in early August. The larvae prey on aphids and other soft-skinned insects. After 2 months, they pupate and shortly afterwards emerge as adults. | | |

The body size is determined primarily by the food supply during the larval period. The male larvae are apparently less dominant than the females when feeding. | | |

The fertilized females lay their eggs in summer or autumn in the root zone of plants or in the upper 2 cm of the soil layer. The eggs overwinter there. The larvae hatch in the spring and develop through four larval stages from June to November to become adults. | | |

The caterpillars are resistant to the cold winter and in the 3rd Larval stage are to find on grass. The larvae continue eating in the spring. In May, they pupate in a parchment-like cocoon, with strong bristles. The pupa hangs from a blade of grass, is black and red in colour and darkens wit time. In June, the adult dri... | | |
