Their 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 o... | | |
| | Spear-winged flies | | Spear-winged flies (Lonchopteridae) are a family in the order Diptera, suborder Brachycera, infraorder Muscomorpha, the unranked taxon Cyclorrhapha, the section Aschiza and the superfamily Lonchopteroidea. Their scientific family name is synonymous with the Musidoridae. This small family is monogeneric, it only contains the genus Lonchoptera, with 45 species known worldwide. | | |
| | | Spear-winged flies are usually small, with body lengths of 2-5 mm. Their slender bodies are yellow, brownh or brownish-black in colour and are covered in bristly hairs. Their wings are spear shaped hence their name. Spear-winged flies have long legs with which they move forward, quickly and jerkily. | | |
| | Money spiders reach body lengths of 1.5 - 3 mm. The shape of their webs in their slightly curved (dome) structure remembers to canopies. These spiders owe their German name to the shape of their web which is slightly domed like a baldachin - the canopy over a tomb or altar. | | |
| | ... reaches wingspans of 40 - 50 mm. The upper surface of the wings is orange in colour with black, brown and yellow spots. The underside of the wings is dark brown in colour and bears a striking, white marking in the form of a "C", hence the name "comma". The colouration and patterning of the comma butterfly varies within a year from one generation to another. The caterpillars of the comma butterfly reach body lengths of up to 30 mm. They are orange-brown in colour are with black m... | | |
| | Grey flesh fly | | The grey flesh fly (Sarcophaga carnaria) is also known as the "camouflaged flesh fly" or "carrion fly". The scientific name is more accurately Sarcophaga (Sarcophaga) carnaria. This species is in the order two-winged flies (Diptera), the suborder flies (Brachycera), the infraorder Muscomorpha (section Schizophora, subsection calyptrata), the superfamily Oestroidea, the f... | | |
| | These spiders have 2 claws on their heads, hence the name "two- clawed-spider". The abdomen is brightly coloured. Crab spiders have 2 very long pairs of front legs. In the males, the first pair of legs can be five times longer than the hind pair of legs. The two pairs of front legs are slightly b... | | |

The larvae breathe through a "snorkel", which is attached to the tip of the abdomen and runs up to the surface of the water, hence the name rat-tailed maggots. The larvae can reach lengths of 20 mm and feed on putrid sludge and dead organic matter, which they filter from the water. They make an important contribution to water clarification. | | |
| | The larvae are equipped with a kind of snorkel (hence the name rat-tailed maggot), up to 100 mm in length which has its base on the abdomen of the larvae and reaches up to the water's surface. The larvae pupate after 2 weeks. | | |
| | The abdomen (opisthosoma) is narrow, arched and tapers to the rear. The upper side is yellowish brown and has a fine, dark, pattern. In the middle is a bright marking in the shape of an oak leaf, hence their name. The upper leg (femur) is brown in colour, while the lower limbs are ringed with narrow, bright and dark bands. | | |
