Leucozona glaucia is a woodland species of hoverfly, typically found in clearings, rides, and tracksides, but also in tall vegetation along roadside hedgerows, scrub, etc. The adults are usually seen visiting flowers, especially white umbels such as Heracleum and Angelica. The larvae prey on ground layer aphids. It can be seen from May to October peaking in July and August.
