Neuroptera (Insectos de alas con nervios)

Orden: Neuroptera

Descripción: Los neurópteros (Neuroptera, del griego neûron, «nervio» y ptéron «ala»; «alas con nervios») son un orden de insectos endopterigotos (con metamorfosis completa); los adultos tienen dos pares de alas membranosas con numerosas nervaduras que forman un retículo. Se trata de un grupo muy diversificado, con registro fósil desde el Pérmico. Se conocen unas 5.000 especies.1​

The larvae of most families are predators. Many chrysopids eat aphids and other pest insects, and have been used for biological control (either from commercial distributors but also abundant and widespread in nature). Larvae in various families cover themselves in debris (sometimes including dead prey insects) as camouflage, taken to an extreme in the ant lions, which bury themselves completely out of sight and ambush prey from "pits" in the soil. Larvae of some Ithonidae are root feeders, and larvae of Sisyridae are aquatic, and feed on freshwater sponges. A few mantispids are parasites of spider egg sacs.

As in other orders, there is a pupal stage, generally enclosed in some form of cocoon composed of silk and soil or other debris. Adults of many groups are also predatory, but some do not feed, or consume only nectar.
