Described by Nathan Banks in 1938, this species is part of a genus characterized by distinctive wing venation patterns. The species epithet references the Arapahoe, connecting to its geographic association with the western United States. Like other antlions, adults are aerial predators while larvae construct pit traps in sandy soils to capture prey.
