Nymphal and adult Urostylis annulicornis Scott, 1874 were reared in cages from eggs overwintered under oak bark in the south of Primorskii Territory of Russia. The nymphs hatch before the onset of oak vegetation season and develop under the bark, consuming the jelly-like coating of the egg mass. As the oak leaves unfold, the II–III instar nymphs leave their shelters and begin feeding on leaf sap. Adults live in the oak crown. The sequence of molts of all the nymphal instars, their feeding, and the timing of seasonal development of the species in nature are described.
