| The flight behaviour of mosquitoes depends on the prevailing weather and light conditions. They can fly at an altitude of up to 100 metres. In cold or rainy weather they usually stay close to the soil. | | |
| | Moths | | ...urniids (Saturniidae), hook-tips (Drepanidae), Thaumetopoeidae, Lymantriidae, hawk moths, sphinx moths and hornworms (Sphingidae), burnet or forester moths (Zygaenidae), and Notodontidae.
Moths are not always nocturnal but they only fly in sunny weather. Most moths are inconspicuous and dully coloured and this allows them a kind of camouflage when they rest in the daytime. Their wing colouration often mimics the appearance of their roost (tree bark, dry leaves). | | |
| | | Common woodlouse | | ...tive during both day and night, but prefer the darkness. They feed on plants, fruits and vegetables. Woodlice are preyed on by a variety of birds.
Adult woodlice have a life expectancy of up to 2 years. They reproduce with the onset of warmer weather. The females produce 10-70 young, up to 3 times a year. These are 2-3mm in length. The females retain the fertilized eggs in pouches. These pouches are situated on the legs and are filled with water. The young develop in these pouches and leave... | | |
| | Harvestmen are only active at night and their behaviour is not affected by adverse weather conditions. Female harvestmen lay their eggs in small holes or cracks in the ground.
Due to the intensification of agriculture and forestry habitats have been lost and this is a real threat to many species of harvestmen.

| | The larvae hatch in spring (April or May), although the timing depends on the weather. They feed on the same plants as the adults. Their upper body is covered with spikes of different lengths, which sometimes split into two. The lattice-like structure on the surface of the body (which is characteristic of the species) is not yet appa... | | |
| | Chloromyia formosa prefer wooded areas, copses, hedgerows, parks and gardens. They are diurnal and active from May to August. In sunny weather they can seen on leaves or on the umbels of the parsley family (hogweed). They usually eat pollen and nectar. Occasionally, however, they rely on animal manure substrates. | | |
| | ...have flat backs and 2 pairs of bristles on their heads. They live on the ground, amongst dead leaves, or in dung or rotting vegetation. They can even be found among the leaves of Brussels sprouts (Brassica oleracea) or white beets, especially in wet weather. The larvae feed on fungal threads (hyphae), algal cells, pollen, soil particles and substrates, which they find in excrement. They also prey on the larvae of bark beetles. They pupate in the soil. | | |
| | The Pear Sawfly prefers habitats such as forests and gardens. Depending on the weather, it produces 2 or 3 new generations a year. Reproduction is normally parthenogenetic (without males). The females of the spring generation leave the soil in early May and lay their eggs, in June, on the leaves of different plants, such as cherry, pe... | | |
| | Mating takes place in late spring or early summer in sunny weather. The fertilized females lay their eggs from the air while clinging to the male (tandem flight). The eggs are attached to plant parts located under the surface of the water. | | |
| | Adult rose leafhoppers fly away when disturbed, while the nymphs make long jumps to escape. Rose leafhoppers reproduce twice a year., They can breed especially well in warm summer weather. The eggs of the second generation overwinter in the bark of the sprouts of roses. The larvae, hatch in the spring and possess only rudimentary wings. The adult cicadas (fully developed and equipped with wings) move to their summer host plants in Ju... | | |
