As a result of research Neuroptera, Hemerobidae belonging to the subfamily Hemerobius, Megalomus, Micromuse, Sympherobius, Hemerobiidae, Wesmaelius, 1733 samples belonging to the genus consists of 13 species were recorded Hemerobiide. Hemerobius, Total number of samples based on the situation and proportional, respectively, the first five types are: Micromus, seasonal Micromuse angulatus, Wesmaelius (Wesmaelius) concinnus, Hemerobius gilvus, Sympherobius elegans, dynamics, Osmaniye and is in the form Sympherobius pygmaeus. As the basis of species recorded seasonal activities evaluated and compared with published results from the Palearctic Region.

Giriş the genera Hemerobius, Micromus, Megalomus, commonly prey upon economically important pest The family Hemerobiidae Latreille, 1803, brown insects in agricultural, horticultural, and forest lacewings, is a cosmopolitan group of predaceous environments. However, despite their significance insects containing approximately 550 species as predators in these situations and their potential distributed among 27 extant genera and placed in usefulness for ecological and biodiversity studies, 10 living subfamilies (Mc Ewen et al. 2001).

Hemerobiids situations where they feed on economically posses the following preimaginal stages: important pests Hemerobiids are always egg/prelarva, three instars, and a pupa. They lay predacious, adults as well as larvae, feeding on sessile (not stalked) eggs that are deposited singly slow-moving soft-bodied arthropods.The gut or in small groups. Most known hemerobiid larvae content of all species that have been analysed relatively active, plant-frequenting predators of included aphid remains They consequently depend soft-bodied insects or their eggs (Oswald, 2004; on the same prey, often with a relatively straight Oliveira et al. 2013). food choice, especially on conifers (Lara and Freitas There are numerous examples of patterns 2003). representing the seasonal dynamics of There is some information regarding parallel developmental stages of various species of sampling of lacewing predators and aphid Hemerobiids, especially in the agricultural areas of seasonality.
