Abstract

There are occurrences of the Pantophthalmidae Family in several Brazilian states, in which observed the habits of these insects. It appears that the larvae are more active at night, live in living or dead trees, and they feed on accumulated organic matter or the products of wood fermentation, on the other hand, adult activities are restricted to reproduction, being cuddles and showing sexual dimorphism. The aim of this paper is to study the biological and taxonomic aspects of the Pantophthalmidae Family. For this, a bibliographic survey of Pantophthalmidae was carried out in the years 1976 to 2022. Only complete articles published in scientific journals and expanded abstracts presented in national and international scientific events were considered. Data were also obtained from platforms such as: Academia.edu, Frontiers, Qeios, Pubmed, Biological Abstract, Publons, Dialnet, World, Wide Science, Springer, RefSeek, Microsoft Academic and Scienc.
