Froggattisca rennerensis is a species of cave-dwelling antlion (or Myrmeleontidae), endemic to the Northern Territory.[1][2]
The species was first described by Miller and Stange in 2012,[2][1] Its species epithet, rennerensis, names the species as coming from its type locality, Mount Renner, in the Northern Territory.[1]
Miller and Stange describe this species as not being a true cave-dwelling antlion, because not all life stages are confined to caves.[1]
