When disturbed, they hide. Females lay their eggs in rotting leaves, which the larvae feed on after hatching. | | |
| | Two-tailed pashas prefer to live in habitats in which strawberry trees (genus Arbutus) grow. This is the food plant of their caterpillars. The adult butterflies live on rotting fruit, excrement and sweat and can fly well and fast. They can be watched in their flights for hours. Male specimens of two-tailed pasha guard their territory and fend off competitors from the same species. Occasionally, they even scare away small b... | | |
| | | Mating season is fromJuly /to September. The fertilized females lay their eggs just below the surface of the soil (usually in chaff or leaves). The larvae of Lagria hirta are cream to light brown in colour. They feed on rotting leaves or on peat. The development of the larvae from egg to beetle takes 9 months, from autumn to spring. Lagria hirta overwinter in the larval stage. In May of the following year, the larvae pupate and hatch as adult beetles. | | |
| | The first pair of legs are strongly built and ciliated. They help the Scoliidae to bury themselves in the ground. The burial, if it is not for the night only, especially in the female specimens allows access to the soil or rotting wood, where different species of scarab larvae live, which are amongst the preferred host animals of the Scoliid wasp’s larvae.
Scoliidae prefer warm temperatures. Adults (especially Campsomerinae) are flower visitors, feeding on nectar or honeyde... | | |
| | The grey flesh fly is seen almost all year round. In the period 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 c... | | |

When they appear en masse, they can make food supplies inedible due to germs and impurities such as animals and human beings are a nuisance and are thus considered a nuisance by humans. The larvae are social and feed on rotting waste materials. They are found under bark, in dead wood, fungi or feces, according to what species they are. Some species live as guests with ants. The larvae breathe with the help of tube-like elongated openings. At the end of the last larval stag... | | |
| | Eristalis lineata are active from April to October. The females lay their eggs in shallow, standing, muddy waters with a lot of decaying plants. After hatching, the larvae live in this water which they help to clean by eating rotting plant substrates. | | |
