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.

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.

Amblyteles armatorius prefer habitats such as forest edges, natural gardens, parks, green field boundaries and bush-rich meadows. They are active during the day and visit flowering plants (mostly Apiaceae) from June to September, where they feed on nectar, pollen and honeydew.

Andrena flavipes live in diverse habitats, such as forest edges, parks, gardens, and sand, gravel or clay pits. They feed on a wide range of flowering plants from which they obtain nectar and pollen.
>> Bees -> Andrena -> Andrena flavipes
Excentricus planicornis are often found on ruderal plants, especially herbs, deciduous trees or shrubs. Adults can be encountered from June to October. They prey on aphids, psyllids, tortrix moth caterpillars, ermine caterpillars and other arthropods. Occasionally, they also eat plant parts (berries, bu...
>> Bugs -> Capsid bugs -> Excentricus planicornis
After mating, the fertilized females lay their eggs on plants. The eggs overwinter. The larvae which hatch in late April, are also predatory. Excentricus planicornis are considered useful as they destroy many plant pests and are especially appreciated in orchards.

...iod 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.
>> Flies -> Flesh-fly -> Grey fleshfly
The canary speckled wood is encountered throughout the year, at altitudes of 200 to 2000 metres in wooded areas, forest edges, on cultivated land, in gardens and at grassy cliffs. The females lay their eggs on the food plants (grasses) of the caterpillars, which hatch approximately 10 days later.
>> Moths & Butterflies -> Butterflies -> Canary speckled wood
At the end of the larval period the caterpillars pupate on their host plants, where they prefer sheltered places such as niches. The pupae hang down from grass fronds near the soil. The pupae are difficult to make out on dry soil and leaf litter because of their camouflage colouration - yellowish green, later brownish-green ...

... way of life of most parasitic mites varies considerably. Many species are very slow moving and use animals as a form of transport while sucking their blood. Even the diet of different species varies greatly. Mites live from bacteria etc... or from plants or plant parts, fungi, carrion, dead tissue (eg skin flakes) or fat.
