Antlion-like lacewings (Myrmeleontiformia) have comparably large predatory larvae; most well-known are the larvae of antlions (Myrmeleontidae) and owlflies (Ascalaphidae). Yet, larvae of spoon-winged lacewings (Nemopterinae, also an ingroup of Myrmeleontiformia) are less well studied and differ in their overall habitus, with a broader head and stouter mouthparts. We here review the known record of spoon-winged lacewing larvae and report two new fossil larvae preserved in 99 million-year-old Kachin amber from Myanmar that have some characteristics of spoon-winged lacewing larvae. We quantitatively compare morphological aspects of all these larvae with those from other myrmeleontiformian larvae. Our analyses suggest that one fossil larva may indeed be closely related to extant spoon-winged lacewings, but retains some plesiomorphies shared with Crocinae, the sister group of Nemopterinae. The other larva shows many unique features, but also some similarities to spoon-winged lacewing larvae, hence might be a highly specialised early representative of the lineage. These two larvae are the first potential larvae of Nemopterinae in the fossil record. Therefore, they are important indicators for the structure of the early diversification of lacewings.
