Comments. Altogether 21 species are recorded from Socotra, 17 of them identified to the species level, eight species (38%) are considered to be endemic to the archipelago. The most diverse family of Neuroptera is Myrmeleontidae with 13 identified species and at least two additional taxa identified only to the genus level ( WHITTINGTON 2002; ÁBRAHÁM 2010, 2011). The family Nemopteridae contains three species and Ascalaphidae one species ( TJEDER 1974, 1975; ÁBRAHÁM 2010). Species of Chrysopidae and Mantispidae have been recorded but not yet identified (e.g. KIMMINS 1960, WRANIK 2003).
