Hemerobius humulinus

Hemerobius is a genus of lacewings in the family Hemerobiidae. It is found throughout Europe and North America.[1] Like most lacewings, both the larvae and adults are predatory, primarily eating acarines, scale insects, psyllids, aphids, thrips, and the eggs of lepidopterans and whiteflies.
