Lebia tricolor Say, 1823

NEW BRUNSWICK: York Co.: Fredericton, 10.vi.1979, A. Chenard, (1, UMNB).

Newly recorded in New Brunswick. Found in open deciduous forests, clearings, thickets, orchards, hedges, meadows, and abandoned fields; active on the foliage of plants, bushes, and trees ( Larochelle & Larivière 2003). Commonly found on goldenrod (Lindroth 1969). Some species of Lebia are known parasitoids on chrysomelids and it is suspected that a parasitic mode of life is common to the whole genus ( Ball & Bousquet 2000).
