The females lay their eggs in spring, on grasses where their larvae then develop . The larvae of yellow swarming flies feed rapaciously on some species of Pseudococcidae and on aphids. They pupate in the soil. Some of the pupae overwinter there. The life expectancy of the yellow swarming fly is 4 to 6 months. They are only considered pests then they occur in large numbers.

Mating occurs in spring and the males die afterwards. Shortly thereafter, the females start building the nest on bare, dry, sandy soil sites. For this purpose they dig a main gallery, which is up to 60 cm deep and leads into the ground, and into diverse brood cells (incubators). The entrance to the nest looks like a crater surrounded by a small mound. The brood cells are fille...
