They prefer moist, shady, grassy habitats, and are mainly found in wet forest soils and water edges. They are found on thicker leaf litter, on wet rocks and very often on the underside of leaves. Most species of spear-winged flies reproduce by parthenogenesis. This means that their larvae hatch from unfertilised eggs.

Picromerus bidens are found in hardwood forests, mixed forests, parks and gardens, where they prefer wet areas. The females lay their eggs in late summer or early autumn on the upper surface of plant leaves. The eggs overwinter there. The larvae hatch in the spring. They develop in 5 stages, each finishing with a moult. In summer, the adult bugs of the...

The adults are found at almost all altitudes and in most habitats (though wet habitats are preferred) and they move around a lot. From July to October they migrate in a southwestern or southern direction.

Before mating, flat-footed flies often appear in large swarms, in which they mark their territory by leaving scent marks on trees and shrubs. As they fly up and down, their legs hang down. On leaves and wet sandy soils, they can be recognized by their zigzag movements.

...heir wing covers (elytra) and "row" themselves along by alternating the hind legs, wiggling from side to side as they swim. Their eyesight is not very developed. Therefore, it is possible for the beetles to land on? reflective surfaces (wet or shiny car roofs, windows, etc.) having confused them with open waters. After mating, the oviposition of the females happens in cocoons near the surface of water where the eggs are glued to water plants. Approximately 8-10 days later the larva...

Willow flea beetle
...er section of the rear pair, with which the willow flea can jump very far (up to hundred times its own body length). The life expectancy of the adult beetle is 8-9 months. They are usually found in the countryside, moist forests, forest edges, wet meadows, marshes, meadows and heathland are their preferred habitats. They can also be encountered in natural gardens and parks. The willow flea beetle is active during the day from May-October (after overwintering). During this time it is mai...

Hylemya strenua are active from May to September in wet meadows, forest edges and gardens where they are found on flowers and on cattle or horse manure. The fertilized females lay their eggs on dung. The larvae hatch immediately and develop in the feces, feeding on the substrates.

... sandy soil. Before mating, the flat-footed flies often appear in large swarms, in which they mark their territory by leaving scent marks on trees and shrubs. As they fly up and down they let their legs hang down. When encountered on leaves and on wet sandy soils, they can be identified by their zigzag movements.

...hey 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.

Geomyza tripunctata occur from the coast to high mountains and prefer wet or dry meadows and forests, where they can be found from May to November on grasses and herbaceous plants. In mild winters they may be seen in January.
