Adult Philodromus aureolus are diurnal and appear from May to August in diverse 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.

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.

The larvae are equipped with a kind of snorkel (hence the name rat-tailed maggot), up to 100 mm in length which has its base on the abdomen of the larvae and reaches up to the water's surface. The larvae pupate after 2 weeks.

Anthrenus pimpinellae
Anthrenus pimpinellae belong to the genus Anthrenus, in the order beetles (Coleoptera), the suborder Polyphaga (water, rove, scarab, longhorn, leaf and snout beetles), the infraorder Bostrichiformia, the superfamily Bostrichoidea (carpet, powder-post and death-watch beetles), the family skin beetles (Dermestidae), the subfamily Megatominae (synonym Anthreninae) and...

Calomera littoralis prefer to live in open habitats with sparse or no vegetation in proximity to salty or fresh water. These diurnal beetles are very shy and only appear after prolonged periods of sunshine. They prey on insects and arthropods. This species is endangered. Birds and other insect eaters pose a threat, especially during mating. The fertilized f...

Adela reaumurella are active throughout the day and night from April to June. Adults can be found in forest edges, clearings, parks and gardens, as well as on bushes that grow near water. On cooler days, they can be seen settled on leaves, often in small groups, absorbing the heat of the sun. The green longhorn mates in the period from April to May. In this period, the males can be seen in more or less large swarms in front of e...

The Drinker
The drinker (Euthrix potatoria), so-called because the caterpillars drink water, is a species in the order butterflies and moths (Lepidoptera), the suborder Glossata, the infraorder Heteroneura (division Ditrysia, section Cossina, subsection Bombycina), the superfamily Bombycoidea, the family eggars, snout moths or lappet moths...
