Sphaerophoria scripta lives a full life cycle from an egg to an adult in sixteen days. On average, this species can produce nine generations per year. They are very fond of yellow daisies. Sphaerophoria scripta are very fast but sometimes hang in flight and then you can take a photo. I offer you my photos of watching these amazing insects.

Гарні фото і цікава інформація! Вони дійсно дуже швидкі, і якби не зависали, хтозна, чи ми б звертали на них увагу )) Чимось нагадує стрекозу
