Dicromantispa moronei
''Dicromantispa moronei'' is an extinct species of mantidfly in the neuropteran family Mantispidae known from a fossil found in the Caribbean.
==History and classification==
''Dicromantispa moronei'' was described from a solitary female holotype fossil which is preserved as an inclusion in a transparent chunk of Dominican amber. When first published, the amber resided in a private amber collection owned by Ettore Morone of Turin, Italy.〔 The amber dates from at least the Burdigalian stage of the Miocene, based on studying the associated fossil Foraminifera and may be as old as the Middle Eocene, based on the associated fossil coccoliths. This age range is due to the host rock being secondary deposits for the amber and the Miocene the age range is only the youngest that it might be.
The female was first studied by entomologists Michael Engel of the university of Kansas and David Grimaldi of the American Museum of Natural History with their 2007 type description of the species was published in the natural sciences journal ''American Museum Novitates''. The specific epithet ''moronei'' is a patronym honoring Ettore Morone.〔 ''D. moronei'' is one of two fossil ''Dicromantispa'' species Engel and Grimaldi described in 2007. The other species, ''D. electromexicana'', is from the similarly aged Mexican amber of Chiapas, Mexico.〔
