Though as hatchlings esplendit hatchlings are difficult to tell apart, it is quite simple to identify them as adults. Daius esplendits come in soft, pastel colors with butterfly-like wings and sweet, kind personalities. They build relationships based on selfless acts, assisting in tasks and presenting one another with treats, including nectar, sap, and candies. The daius esplendits choose their mates over many years, patiently searching through their colony and others for their permanent mate. Noctus esplendits have quite different attitudes. Each night during their mating season, they arrive coated in droplets of alcohol and with slices of fermented fruit, and they dance through the tree tops on foot and on wing to attract mates.
Esplendits grow magnificent wings upon reaching maturity. Once grown, daius esplendits begin their journey to find their permanent mates. This may take many years, but once they have found each other they stay together for life, raising young in a small family group. Noctus esplendits, out of mating season, begin working to raise the colony's young as a large group. Rarely does a noctus parent raise its own young, instead giving it over to the colony to be raised by many members.
