A revision of the genus Navasoleon Banks (Neuroptera: Myrmeleontidae: Nemoleontini)

  • Nine species of Navasoleon (Neuroptera: Myrmeleontidae: Nemoleontini) are recognized in the present work with the description of seven new species: N. amazonas Stange, N. brasiliensis Miller, N. egeri Stange, N. lithophilus Miller, N. lotti Stange, N. tarsalis Miller, and N. venezolanus Stange. Navasoleon bosqui (Navás) is designated a nomen dubium. A key to the species is provided as well as to the genera of Nemoleontini with closing pretarsal claws. The larvae of two species are described and keyed with biological notes. Biological data presented in Miller and Stange (1985), erroneously attributed to N. bolivianus (Banks), has now been corrected to N. lithophilus. Included in this treatise are 71 color photographs including photos of male and female terminalia, male genitalia, and two species of larvae.

Se designa a Navasoleon bosqui (Navás) como nomen dubium. Se presenta una clave para las nueve especies y para las larvas además para los generos de Nemoleontini con uñas prensiles. Se provee una diagnosis para las especies además de datos sobre distribución geográfica. Se describen las larvas de dos especies con observaciones biologícas. Datos biológicos en el trabajo de Miller and Stange (1985), erroneamenta asignado como N. bolivianus (Banks), ahora corrigido a N. lithophilus. Se incluye 71 fotos de color, incluyendo fotos de las terminalias de los machos y hembras, las genitalias de los machos, y las larvas de dos especies.
