The adult wasps are mainly found on umbelliferae flowers, mint, thistle or golden rod plants. Their larvae mostly live as parasites in the nests of some kinds of bees or wasps, for example, digger wasps or solitary wasps. The fertilized females lay their eggs in spring in the nests of their larvae’s hosts. This happ...

After mating, the fertilized females seek out the food plants of the larvae where they lay their eggs on the upperside of the leaves. The eggs are shaped like a cone, groove...
