Libelloides lacteus (Brullé, 1832)

For the book there is one very good (but a bit old*) in you language:

Kis, B.; Nagler, C.; Mândru, C. 1970 Insecta: Neuroptera (Planipennia). Fauna Republicii Socialiste România



*Anyway there isn't an up-to-date one!

thanks for ID, I have and know that book the only problem is that is limited to the Romania

The only existing book on European Neuroptera is the Bible: "Die Neuropteren Europas" by Aspoeck et alii; it has three problems: it is in German, it is very "technical" (I think it is not for amateurs) and it is very expensive (over 300 E!). Unfortunately this book has 30 years and now "it starts to suffer from old age", the nomeclature has changed and for some families is not more adequate.
