Nusalala is a genus of brown lacewings.
[1] They belong to the subfamily Microminae, as well as the genera Micromus and Megalomina.
[2] Some species of this genus, such as Nusalala brachyptera , are "brachypter" meaning short wings,[3] and have lost the ability to fly; they can only jump.
This phenomenon has evolved in a number of genera in the family Hemerobiidae[4] This genus have an exclusive neotropical distribution (South America, Central America and the Caribbean).
[5] As well, the distribution is limited in the South Cone and steppes, where its humidity and temperature conditions may not be enough, and in rain forests, despite their tropical nature.
