82AD930CB06452918CDCB5B8C030E7DE.taxon	etymology	Etymology. The species name refers to the type locality, Changzhou, Jiangsu Province, China. In ancient times, this region was part of the Lanling Commandery [兰陵郡], established during the Southern and Northern Dynasties (circa 502 AD). The administrative centre of Lanling Commandery was located within the present boundaries of modern Changzhou. Over time, the name “ Lanling ” was gradually replaced by “ Changzhou ” due to changes in administrative divisions, but the historical name remains significant. The specific epithet honours this ancient connection to Lanling, where the type specimen was collected.	en	Li, Di, Liu, Xingyue (2025): Similar but diverse: New species and distribution pattern of the pleasing lacewing genus Dilar Rambur, 1838 (Neuroptera, Dilaridae) from China.

A4DB99BF0B5958B2823F6AF6A0FF9067.taxon	etymology	Etymology. The specific epithet “ qiongduensis ” is derived from “ Qiongdu [邛都], ” the ancient name for the south-eastern region of present-day Xichang City, Sichuan, China, where the type specimen was collected. Historically, Qiongdu was an important administrative and cultural centre as early as the Western Han Dynasty, when it served as the capital of Qiongdu County. Situated along the ancient trade routes of southwestern China, it played a key role in the development of the region, particularly as part of the Southern Silk Road. The name Qiongdu reflects the area’s historical significance as a hub of cultural exchange, economic activity and strategic importance in the Sichuan Basin. The use of this name honours both the cultural heritage and the natural richness of the region where the species was discovered.	en	Li, Di, Liu, Xingyue (2025): Similar but diverse: New species and distribution pattern of the pleasing lacewing genus Dilar Rambur, 1838 (Neuroptera, Dilaridae) from China.
