FAMILY LYCIDAE (Net-winged )

J. McNamara

Twenty-nine species of Lycidae are recorded from Canada and Alaska. The adults occur on leaves, flowers, or under bark and are thought to be predaceous. The larvae are predaceous and those of most species are found under bark. The of the North American species of Lycidae has been revised by Green in a series of publications; his paper of 1949 includes a key to the Nearctic tribes.
