Bodenheimer (Animal Life in Palestine, 1925) has this to say about this family:
The Clerids are medium sized, red and green or red and blue in color and hairy. They prey on small insects on flowering umbels. The reddish larvae develop on the larvae of bees or on the egg pods of grasshoppers (Trichodes ammios on the eggs of Dociostaurus and others).
