A Myrmeleontidae: antlions, from the Neuroptera order of antlions and owlflies. This order of insects of course contains neither ants, nor lions, owls, or flies—a staple in entomology to name unusual insects with compound names drawing from other animals—e.g., snakeflies, sawflies, and more.

The antlion name honors the behaviour of their larvae, which live in ground burrows and trap passing ants with their fearsome mandibles.

@ApNudd It's an adult antlion (#Neuroptera #Myrmeleontidae) with the wings not yet fully expanded. I think the species is Heoclisis fundata:
