Antilion

Description:

Nocturnal, probably attracted by the light cause I have found it on the window web what should keep the mosquitoes.

Notes:

The exact meaning of the name "antlion" is uncertain. It has been thought that it refers to the fact that ants form a large percentage of the prey of the insect, the suffix "lion" merely suggesting destroyer or eater. Perhaps, however, the name as a whole only signifies a large terrestrial biting apterous insect, surpassing ants in size and predatory habits, similar to the concept of the lion being "king of the animals" in European mythology and lore. In any case, the term seems to go back to Antiquity.
