The cold-resistant larvae overwinter under rocks or in soil litter. On sunny winter days they can be observed crawling on the snow surface. The larvae are thus also called "snow worms”. In May of the following year, they have finished the 6th larval stage and pupate. That same month, the adult beetles hatch from the chrysalises. | | |
| | Adult Scoliidae reach body lengths of 10-40 mm. While the females are stocky, the males appear smaller and slimmer. The basic colour of the body is black in most species. The upper surface is frequently marked with white, yellow, orange or red spots. The appearance of the males and females varies widely. | | |

The females then build tunnels in the earth, sometimes to a depth of one metre beneath the surface of the soil, and drag the permanently paralyzed host larvae into these, depositing them at the end. The host larva are thus stowed in an "incubator". One egg is placed on each host insect. During a period of one to three months, Scoliidae... | | |
| | The upper surface of the chest (thorax) is light grey to dark grey in colour. Three broad black stripes run lengthwise, flanked on both sides by a short black stripe. The abdomen has a striking checked pattern in silvery and dark grey. The upper chitinous plates (ter... | | |

It can reach body lengths of 25 - 27 mm and is yellowish-green in colour. There is a dark green stripe, on the upper surface of the back and slightly dark green and bright green shimmering lines on the sides. The entire body of the caterpillar is covered in individual, upright, light coloured hairs. The head is oval or round and clearly a blue-green colour. At the hind en... | | |
| | Adult common green capsid reach body lengths of 5 - 7 mm. They are bright green and are covered in fine, white hair. Their antennae are remarkably long. The upper surface of the pronotum is slightly rough with some indentations. On the wing membranes, green veins are visible. The tibia have light brown spines. | | |
| | The females lay their eggs in almost any appropriate water, regardless of the volume. The larvae of the mosquitoes develop under water. They get oxygen from the water surface, through a proboscis, which is located at the back end of the body. They feed on microorganisms and sometimes prey on other mosquito larvae. | | |
| | Nigma walckenaeri are diurnal and can be encountered from August to October (in and around buildings until December). In the morning, after sunrise, they build a transparent tissue, on the upper surface of leaves with upward curving edges, which resembles a tent and serves as a shelter. In order to build a web to catch insects, separate fibres of silk are excreted from the spinnerets into many extremely fine fibres, giving the web a wooly structure... | | |
| | The front section of the body (prosoma) is almost round and is reddish brown or dark brown in colour in the females. The upper surface has a wide, bright stripe in the middle. The prosoma of the males is dark and has a metallic sheen and the stripe often appears indistinct. In all Philodromus aureolus, the posterior eyes are further apart than the lateral posterior eyes. | | |
| | ...dy (opisthosoma) is slightly longer than it is wide and reaches its maximum width just after the midpoint. The markings vary; they can be more or less pronounced, and are usually brown or light brown in the females, with a yellow stripe on the upper surface, within which a marking appears over time which resembles a heart or a spear. Towards the back of the abdomen, indentations are visible. The opisthosoma of the males is similar but darker and shinier. | | |
