Unearthing Mesozoic beetles through micro‐computed tomography: A new family of Archostemata and the first representatives of Ommatidae and †Notocupes from the Crato Formation

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 3, July‐September 2026.
First formally described Archostemata beetles from the Lower Cretaceous Crato Formation are reported, representing the earliest records of the suborder from western Gondwana. Micro‐computed tomography enabled three‐dimensional reconstruction of partially exposed fossils, revealing previously hidden dorsal and ventral morphological characters relevant ...

Unusual occurrence of Cochlichnus in aeolian sandstones: evidence for a stiletto fly larval origin

open access: yesPapers in Palaeontology, Volume 12, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract Cochlichnus anguineus is an ichnotaxon recognized for its distinctive regular wavy morphology. It is a characteristic trace fossil typically associated with aquatic and marginal aquatic environments. However, in this study we examine its unusual occurrence in the aeolian sandstones of the Botucatu Formation (Lower Cretaceous, Paraná Basin ...
