| There are two different kinds of neuropteran eye, with and without distal rhabdomeres, which can be expected on anatomical grounds to function differently. |
| Hymenopteran parasitoids were the most abundant, in total 927 were collected, followed by neuropteran predators and arachnid predators. |
| Antlions are neuropteran predators commonly found in tropical regions. |
| These have been neglected in studies on neuropteran anatomy, and many aspects of their biology are likewise obscure. |
| Shelob could well belong to a neotenic neuropteran species in which cocoon-spinning ability has been directed towards prey capture. |
