Neuropterids commonly known as ‘Lace wings, nerve-winged insects, ant lions, snake<br />

flies, alder flies and dobson flies’ is an important group <strong>of</strong> predacious insects which includes<br />

many small to large sized, s<strong>of</strong>t bodied structurally and biologically heterogenous members.<br />

They are readily recognized by the network <strong>of</strong> veins <strong>of</strong> generally transparent wings and well<br />

developed antennae. The neuropterids are rarely abundant in numbers and most are weak in<br />

flight. They feed on s<strong>of</strong>t-bodied insects including pests in their larval and adult stages thus<br />

considered as valuable allies <strong>of</strong> man. Their carnivorous habit <strong>of</strong>fers a better scope for their use<br />

in biological control measures.<br />

Numerically about 6,256 species are known from the world and Indian fauna accounts<br />

for 342 species and 15 subspecies belonging to 121 genera under 14 families (Oswald, 2007),<br />

which is about 5.5 % <strong>of</strong> world occurrence.<br />
