Antlions in Hungary: checklist and identification key (Neuroptera: Myrmeleontidae)

Abstract

This paper presents an updated and annotated checklist of Myrmeleontidae (Neuroptera) of Hungary. Currently 16 species with valid faunistical records are known; the presence of Myrmeleon hyalinus Olivier, 1811, ignored by most authors, is confirmed, and the omission of Synclisis baetica (Rambur, 1842) from the Hungarian checklist is verified. An illustrated identification key is given to the 16 species present and further 15 species might potentially occur in Hungary
