During the Spring, wild female Yanma perform a mating "dance" where it flies around in a distinctive pattern to attract mates. When a male arrives it chases the female until either it or the female gives up. Then they mate by connecting their cerci. Afterwords, the female lays a single egg in water, usually near water plants, and then abandons it to go feed or mate again. Females can mate up to 20 times in a single season.
After a short gestation period a young Yanma in a larval nymph form hatches from the egg. It feeds off of water-borne plants until it is mature, where upon it crawls out of the water, molts, and flies away on newly developed wings as an adult Yanma. Yanma bred in captivity lay larger eggs and skip the larval stage entirely. Scientists are baffled at why this occurs.
The mating habits of Yanmega have not been observed, as they are recently discovered and rarely seen in the wild.
