Classification The position and content of the Order Neuroptera differs slightly
depending on the classification used. The main difference comes in acceptance of the higher
grouping i.e. does Neuroptera include Megaloptera, Raphidioptera and Planipennia, or does
it exclude the first two. There really is no right or wrong notion here, but the International
Association of Neuropterology prefers the use of Neuropterida as the senior taxonomic
group, including the Orders Megaloptera, Raphidioptera and Neuroptera, accepting that
Planipennia is an out moded name. Other points of view also prevail - look for example at
the first two web sites listed below.
