  • Oliarces

    Oliarces is a genus of moth lacewings (Neuroptera: Ithonidae) containing a single described species, O. clara. Moth lacewings are a relatively obscure group of neuropterans characterized by their moth-like appearance and reduced wing venation compared to other lacewings. The genus was established by Nathan Banks in 1908. Very little is known about the biology or ecology of this genus due to its rarity and limited observations.
