Abstract: A concerted research programme is being undertaken on southern African Neuroptera. This has been formally structured into five operational components or focal areas: a biodiversity audit, systematic revisions, study of larval biology and ecological requirements, distribution patterns and predictive modelling, and conservation status and protective measures. The programme is being undertaken in collaboration with local and international researchers, while amateur entomologists also make significant contributions.
