Life Cycle of Kamimuria quadrata
Egg After being laid in water, the eggs of kamimuria quadrata hatch into nymphs. They lack wings and resemble smaller versions of adults, with the segmentation of the body and undeveloped reproductive organs.
Nymph The nymphs of kamimuria quadrata undergo multiple molts in water, increasing in size and complexity with each stage. Their color and shape change gradually, becoming more like the adults they will soon become.
Adult Emerging from the final molt, the adult kamimuria quadrata features wings and functional reproductive organs. The body is fully formed and hardened, and the adult's primary focus is on reproduction and dispersal.

Habitat Preferences of Kamimuria quadrata Through Different Life Stages
The eggs of kamimuria quadrata are often located under the water surface, attached to vegetation or submerged objects. The nymphs dwell in the fast-flowing, oxygen-rich waters of streams and rivers, seeking shelter under rocks and debris. Upon reaching maturity, adults typically reside near the same aquatic habitats but are also found in surrounding vegetation, where they blend in with leaves and bark in search of mates. To encounter these different growth stages, one should search the stream substrates for the aquatic nymphs and observe adjacent riparian zones for the terrestrial adults, paying attention to areas with ample vegetation and nearby flowing water.
