FOSSIL SNAKEFLY PUPAE FROM ABOUT 100 MILLION YEARS OLD AMBER REVEAL AN UNUSUAL MORPHOLOGY OF THE ANTENNAE

Rivista Italiana di Paleontologia e Stratigrafia
A key aspect of the holometabolan evolutionary success is their metamorphosis. It allows larvae and adults to exploit quite different resources and reduce competition between the two.

A contribution to the taxonomy of eucnemidae from mid-cretaceous Kachin amber (coleoptera: elateroidea)

Mesozoic
Two new genera and species of false click beetles are described and illustrated from mid-Cretaceous Kachin amber. Yallmoleia arriagavarelai gen. et sp. nov. differs from similar species that have basally closed lateral antennal grooves on the hypomeron primarily by the absence of elytral striae and the morphology of antennae and legs.
