Dimarini is an antlion tribe in the family Myrmeleontidae. [1]
The antlions are a group of about 2,000 species of insect in the neuropteran family Myrmeleontidae. They are known for the predatory habits of their larvae, which mostly dig pits to trap passing ants or other prey. In North America, the larvae are sometimes referred to as doodlebugs because of the marks they leave in the sand. The adult insects are less well known due to their relatively short lifespans in comparison with the larvae. Adults, sometimes known as antlion lacewings, mostly fly at dusk or just after dark and may be mistakenly identified as dragonflies or damselflies.
Ascalaphidae is a family of insects in the order Neuroptera, commonly called owlflies; there are some 450 extant species. They are fast-flying crepuscular or diurnal predators of other flying insects, and have large bulging eyes and strongly knobbed antennae. The larvae are ambush predators; some of them make use of self-decoration camouflage.
Palparini is an antlion tribe in the subfamily Palparinae.
The Hemerobiiformia are a suborder of insects in the order Neuroptera that include most of the lacewings, antlions and their allies. The phylogeny of the Neuroptera was explored in 2014 using mitochondrial DNA sequences. The results indicate that the traditional Hemerobiiformia are paraphyletic, meaning that not all the members of the clade are considered to belong to it, in particular since it would include all the Myrmeleontiformia, with which the Hemerobiiformia were traditionally contrasted. The Osmyloidea, usually included in Hemerobiiformia, actually seem to represent a more ancient lineage basal to Hemerobiiformia as well as Myrmeleontiformia. The broken-up group is shown in the cladogram:
Acanthaclisini is a tribe in the antlion subfamily Myrmeleontinae.
Myrmecaelurini is a tribe of antlion within the subfamily Myrmeleontinae.
Nesoleontini is a tribe in the antlion subfamily Myrmeleontinae.
Cordulecerus is a genus of owlflies, neuropteran insects in the subfamily Ascalaphinae. Species are found in Central and South America.
Cordulecerus elegans is a species of owlflies, neuropteran insects in the family Ascalaphidae. It is found in South America.
Brachynemurini is a tribe of antlions in the family Myrmeleontidae within the subfamily Myrmeleontinae. There are 28 genera and 117 described species in Brachynemurini.
Ululodes floridanus is a species of owlfly in the tribe Ululodini. It is found in North America.
Ululodes is a genus of owlflies in the tribe Ululodini. There are at least 27 described species in Ululodes.
Ululodes mexicanus is a species of owlfly in the tribe Ululodini. It is found in Central America.
Ululodes quadripunctatus, the four-spotted owlfly, is a species of owlfly in the tribe Ululodini. It is found in Central America and North America.
Ululodes macleayanus is a species of owlfly in the tribe Ululodini. It is found in the Caribbean Sea, Central America, North America, and South America.
Ululodes arizonensis is a species of owlfly in the tribe Ululodini. It is found in Central America and North America.
Ululodes nigripes is a species of owlfly in the tribe Ululodini. It is found in North America.
Ululodes bicolor is a species of owlfly in the tribe Ululodini. It is found in Central America and North America.
Maula is a genus of antlions found in Africa, containing the single species, Maula stigmatus, described in 1912. This genus is classified in the tribe Palparini.
Ululodinae is a subfamily or tribe of owlflies. Both they and the Ascalaphinae are sometimes known as split-eyed owlflies due to the characteristic ridge that bisects their compound eyes.
