...t habitats such as deciduous forests, swamps or wet meadows. They are active in May and June and from September to April and suck blood. Their larvae, which probably develop in the soil, have hairy pseudopods (feet). They feed on parts of decaying plants.

Rubytail wasps prefer sunny, dry habitats up to high altitudes. They can be found from May to September on warm stone walls, wooden walls, telegraph poles and fences. The adults live off nectar from plants of the parsley family (Umbelliferae).

...ludes water edges with herbaceous vegetation. They feed by sucking plant juices from single cells of leaf tissue (mesophyll). Tiny white spots can then be seen on the leaves as the saliva of Eupteryx aurata destroys chlorophyll. Their preferred food plants include nettles (Urtica), Labiatae (Lamiaceae) and potato (Solanum tuberosum).

...tion of eggs in spring in loose, moist soil or in damp meadows, in gardens or in cultivated land. The eggs are oval and about 1 mm in size and can number up to 1, 200. The larvae hatch after 15 days and feed on fallen leaves or on the roots of young plants. They can cause considerable damage in horticulture and agriculture. 300 to 400 larvae per square metre of usable area is not uncommon. The larvae pupate in the soil about 4 months after hatching. During this time, they shed their skin 4 times. The ...

... found in southern Europe. They are also common in northern Germany where they live almost exclusively in areas inhabited by humans. They prefer gardens or overgrown sunlit facades. Here they can be found on the leaves of herbs, shrubs, and climbing plants (ivy, wild wine), but rarely on such broad-leaf bushes as Syringa (Lilac). Due to its camouflaged appearance the Nigma walckenaeri is difficult to see. In the warmer parts of Europe, it lives in sunny forest edges and in clearings. It can even be fo...

...rful. Nigma walckenaeri are green. Many species are slightly hairy. What is special to meshweb weavers is that they do not produce sticky threads to catch prey. Instead, they produce a fine, crinkly silk which is spun into irregularly shaped webs on plants.
>> Arachnids -> Meshweb Weavers
Meshweb weavers livein different habitats in Central Europe. They can be found on dry grass and ruderal vegetation, on trees, shrubs, perennials or inflorescences of dry plants. They also like to be in areas populated by humans. The meshweb weavers live off insects. Often, these are medium to large sized flying insects, which get caught in their finely spun webs.
>> Arachnids -> Meshweb Weavers
...erse habitats such as deciduous forests, coniferous forests, mixed forests, forest edges, meadows, orchards, moors, copses, heaths, on the banks of bodies of water, in dunes and gardens. They are found on the leaves, branches and stems of herbaceous plants, trees and shrubs where they prey on insects. Once they have chosen their prey, they overwhelm it quickly and administer a paralyzing and fatal bite.
>> Arachnids -> Running Crab Spiders -> Philodromus aureolus
Although crab spiders are classed as web building spiders, they capture prey by ambushing them without creating a web. As they are good climbers, they are also found on high plants. They benefit from their colouration in two ways. Firstly, they reflect UV light and therefore attract insects. Secondly, they are able to adapt to the colour of their hunting ground (within a few days is possible) and as a result are only observed ...

Soldier beetles live in forests, fields, meadows and gardens, where they can be found on blossoms or leaves, often in groups. They are diurnal and feed on insects or parts of plants.
