the mantis, centipedes, scorpions, Spiders, dragonfly, lady byrd

centipedes, scorpions, and spiders are NOT insects...

-but scropionflies are predatory (Mecoptera: Panorpidae), so are lacewings, lady beetles (lady bird beetles is a European common name for lady beetles), also syrphid flies in the immature life stages, certain cecidomyiid flies, antlions, etc. There are also parasitoids, in which in the immature must utilize a host to complete their life cycle, but unlike predators, they only kill one host within their lifetime.

Aside from the fact that your question makes absolutely no sense whatsoever, I believe that the answer that you're looking for is that insects that prey upon other insects are insectivorous, generally speaking. Most insects are; however, omnivorous, eating both other insects and plants.

Building upon the previous answer to this question, one could interpret it as being "What insects are predators of other insects?" instead of "What is the term for insects that are predators of other insects?" In that case, some common examples would be dragonflies, hornets, ladybugs, robber flies, and praying mantises.

insects that eat other insects are called canivores. This means that they eat plants. They can also eat their own kind (cannibals).
