Nymphal and adult Urostylis annulicornis Scott, 1874 were reared in cages from eggs overwintered under oak bark in the south of Primorskii Territory. Instars I hatch before the onset of vegetation season and develop under bark where they feed by sucking the jelly-like coating of the egg mass. As oak leaves unfold, instars I leave the shelter and begin feeding on leaf sap. Adults live in the oak crown. The sequence of molts of all nymphal stages, their feeding, and timing of seasonal development of the species in nature are described.
