This is a very interesting species of brown lacewing. It is difficuly to identify further without closer examination, especially of the terminalia. All known larvae of Hemerobiidae are voracious and active predators that live on plants and actively pursue prey such as aphids and other small Homoptera. They are consequently valuable biocontrol agents. |
