Dendroleon is a genus of antlions in the family Myrmeleontidae. There are more than 20 described species in Dendroleon. [1] [2] [3]

Bittacidae is a family of scorpionflies commonly called hangingflies or hanging scorpionflies.
Nymphidae, sometimes called split-footed lacewings, are a family of winged insects of the order Neuroptera.

Bittacus is considered "grossly paraphyletic" and serves as a catch-all for many distantly related species of hangingflies.
Hagenomyia is a genus of antlions (Myrmeleontidae) containing around 20 species occurring in Eastern Asia, tropical Africa and Australia.
Acanthaclisini is a tribe in the antlion subfamily Acanthaclisinae.
Glenurus is a genus of antlions in the family Myrmeleontidae. There are about 12 described species in Glenurus.
Scotoleon is a genus of antlions in the family Myrmeleontidae. There are more than 20 described species in Scotoleon.
Peruveleon is a genus of antlions in the family Myrmeleontidae. There are about five described species in Peruveleon.
Vella is a genus of antlions in the family Myrmeleontidae. There are about five described species in Vella.
Paranthaclisis is a genus of antlions in the family Myrmeleontidae. There are about five described species in Paranthaclisis.
Megalomus is a genus of brown lacewings in the family Hemerobiidae. There are more than 40 described species in Megalomus.
Psectra is a genus of brown lacewings in the family Hemerobiidae. There are more than 20 described species in Psectra.

Pseudomallada is a genus of green lacewings in the family Chrysopidae. There are more than 160 described species in Pseudomallada.
Dicromantispa is a genus of mantidflies in the family Mantispidae. There are about 10 described species in Dicromantispa.
Ameromyia is a genus of antlions belonging to the family Myrmeleontidae.
Bankisus is a genus of antlions belonging to the family Myrmeleontidae.
