@article{Winterton2019LanceLO, title={Lance lacewings of the world (Neuroptera: Archeosmylidae, Osmylidae, Saucrosmylidae): review of living and fossil genera.}, author={Shaun L. Winterton and Caleb Califre Martins and Vladimir N. Makarkin and Adrian Ardila-Camacho and Yongjie Wang}, journal={Zootaxa}, year={2019}, volume={4581 1}, pages={ zootaxa.4581.1.1 } }
The genera of the lance lacewing family Osmylidae (Neuroptera) and extinct allied families (Archeosmylidae, Saucrosmylidae) are reviewed. A key to living Osmylidae genera of the world is presented. Each genus is diagnosed and figured with a checklist of species included for each. New, revised or support for previous taxonomic changes include the following: Nuddsia Menon Makarkin, 2008 (= Burmaleon Myskowiak et al., 2016 syn. nov.); Kempynus Navás, 1912 (= Clydosmylus New 1983a syn. nov…

Isostenosmylus is recovered as a monophyletic genus and species are divided in two main clades (named here as ‘bifurcatus’ and ‘pulverulentus’ clades); the greatest diversity of this genus is located in the Andean mountain range, where new studies should be focused on.

The result from the phylogenetic inference combining the data from fossil and extant myrmeleontoids recovered a monophyletic clade composed of Babinskaiidae and another extinct family Cratosmylidae, and assigned this clade to be sister group to a clade including Nemopteridae, Palaeoleont Families, and Myr meleontidae.

Changes in the Morphological Diversity of Larvae of Lance Lacewings, Mantis Lacewings and Their Closer Relatives over 100 Million Years

The results point to a complex pattern of diversity changes in Neuroptera from 100 million years ago until today, with Mantispidae appears to have lost certain forms of larvae, but has seen a drastic increase of larval diversity after the Cretaceous; this is in contrast to a significant decrease in diversity in adult forms.
