This beautiful and delicate chrysopid is frequently encountered in houses. Many records from Johannesburg and Pretoria. Also from Mpumalanga, Limpopo, North West. Nothing is known about its immature stages, but the larvae may be inquilines in ant’s nests. Reared larvae feed on ant larvae, supporting the idea that they are ant-associated. |
