...f the colony who overwinters. In the middle of April she leaves her hiding place and at the beginning of May,starts to establish a new nest. To this end she first builds a honeycomb, which she covers with a paper-like mass made from chewed wood. The queen lays fertilized eggs in this honeycomb. After the larvae have hatched the queen takes care of the brood, feeding the larvae with insects and spiders until they pupate in early June. These larvae will become the female workers. As ...

Adult Stictoleptura cordigera visit flowering plants, especially Umbelliferae (Apiaceae). The larvae of the beetle develop in the decaying wood of deciduous trees.
>> Beetles -> longhorn beetles -> Stictoleptura cordigera
The adult beetles feed on pollen and parts of flowers. From July to August they are encountered on umbellifers (a member of the parsley family) and on dead wood. Their preferred habitats are moist forests and watersides in the mountains; they are also at home in areas at lower altitudes.

The booklice live on different plants, tree trunks, under tree bark, in dead wood, bird nests and even in buildings. They eat fungi, spores, algae and lichens. Occasionally they also eat dead insects. Booklice need a medium to high humidity and temperatures over 15 degrees Celsius and are capable of absorbing water vapour directl...

...to several hundred eggs in a lifetime) is done with an ovipositor in moist soil orin the mud at the bottom of a body of water. The larvae reach body lengths of about 50 mm and live on plant roots, which they eat. They pupate in the soil or in rotten wood. Crane fly larvae can cause significant damage to crops.

There are 6 different kinds of spear-winged fly larvae and they are shaped like wood lice. They 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, especi...

The larvae of Rutpela maculata develop in rotten wood from deciduous trees (beech, oak, birch, hawthorn) and occasionally from conifers (pines), which they feed on leaving long tunnels. They pupate at the end of these passages after the last larval stage and hatch later as adult beetles.

...at capricorn beetle prefers to live in warm deciduous forests, parks or small river valleys with trees. It is found almost exclusively in sunny places with old, sick or dying oak trees, in which its larvae develop. However, it completely avoids dead wood. Occasionally, it is also found on hornbeam (Carpinus), chestnut (Castanea), locust bean plants (Ceratonia), ash (Fraxinus), walnut (Juglans), pears (Pyrus), black locust (Robinia), willow (Salix) and elm (Ulmus). The great capricorn beetle feeds on...

The first pair of legs are strongly built and ciliated. They help the Scoliidae to bury themselves in the ground. The burial, if it is not for the night only, especially in the female specimens allows access to the soil or rotting wood, where different species of scarab larvae live, which are amongst the preferred host animals of the Scoliid wasp’s larvae. Scoliidae prefer warm temperatures. Adults (especially Campsomerinae) are flower visitors, feeding on nectar or honeydew. Th...

The canary speckled wood can easily be confused with Pararge xiphia or Pararge aegeria. Similarities to Lasiommata maera and Lasiommata megera also exist.
