Habitat
''Bibio articulatus'' can be found usually in rotting trees, or eating the leaves of plants without causing significant damage. It is also found in loose soil during its reproductive cycles.Reproduction
''Bibio articulatus'' will usually begin appearing in March, and be most active during April and May before going dormant during June. After the mating period, the female ''Bibio articulatus'' will lay eggs in loose soil or decaying substrate. These eggs are usually small, oblong, and vary in color. The larvae will hatch resembling small, featureless, worms. The larvae will eventually encapsulate itself in a pupa and gain its coloration. At the emergence from the pupa, the adult has functional wings and reproductive organs.References:
