As their common name suggests, they are often seen hovering or nectaring at flowers; the adults of many species feed mainly on nectar and pollen, while the larvae (maggots) eat a wide range of foods. In some species, the larvae are saprotrophs, eating decaying plant and animal matter in the soil or in ponds and streams. In other species, the larvae are insectivores and prey on aphids, thrips, and other plant-sucking insects. The hoverfly's colouring can be black and gold or dark brown and pale yellow. The rare 'europarc' hoverfly can swivel its head up to three hundred and sixty degrees.
