The Nemoleontinae are a of antlions (Neuroptera: Myrmeleontidae) erected by Nathan Banks in 1911. The subfamily includes multiple tribes, though taxonomic placement of certain remains under revision. Some authorities have proposed that certain genera historically placed in Nemoleontini should instead be assigned to Megistopini. The subfamily has been documented primarily from the Oriental region, with some genera also occurring in other regions.
