Larvae of Euroleon polyspilus (Neuroptera, Myrmeleontidae) were found in coniferous-broadleaved forests in two localities of the Middle Sikhote-Alin Mountains (northern Primorskiy Krai), including the Sikhote-Alin Nature Reserve. These findings show that this species can live in a closed canopy forest with dense undergrowth. Their larvae build pitfall traps in any suitable substrate, including dry wood detritus produced by beetles accumulating under Pinus koraiensis.
