Genus Cratochrysa Martins-Neto, 1994 View in CoL

Cratochrysa Martins-Neto, 1994: 272 View in CoL . Type species. Cratochrysa willmanni Martins-Neto, 1994: 273 View in CoL (by original designation).

Taxonomic notes. Martins-Neto (1994) originally placed Cratochrysa View in CoL in Mesochrysopidae View in CoL , but later (Martins-Neto, 1997) reassigned it to Chrysopidae incertae View in CoL sedis, then ( Martins-Neto, 2003) to the chrysopid subfamily Cratochrysinae . Wichard et al. (2005) described the family Corydasialidae View in CoL in Megaloptera View in CoL , and in the same year Nel et al. (2005b) treated Cratochrysa View in CoL as Neuroptera incertae View in CoL sedis. More recently, Liu et al. (2017) assigned the genus to Corydasialidae View in CoL and considered the family as more closely related to Chrysopoidea than to Megaloptera View in CoL .
