This is a species of Proctarrelabis, but it is difficult to distinguish them without the presence of the male. Proctarrelabis lays batches of about 30 eggs on vegetation and the larvae sometimes clump together without harming or cannibalizing each other, but they rapidly attack faster-moving prey. If they have sufficient food they can complete a life cycle in a year. The adults hawk prey, usually at dusk and they can often be found within the abdomen held erect in typical pheromone-emitting posture. |
