おもしろい事実

Adult antlions are often mistaken for dragonflies, but they have unique club-tipped antennae.

Adult antlions look like delicate lacewings but are often much larger and sturdier.

The larvae, called doodlebugs, can live for years before transforming into winged adults!

Unlike most insects, larval antlions don't poop! They store waste until they become adults.
