Protohemiphlebiidae fam. nov., a stem hemiphlebioid damselfly from Cretaceous amber in Kachin

Geological Society, London, Special Publications, 2021
Abstract Hemiphlebiidae are the most basal lestomorphan family following the latest phylogenetic analysis of the Zygoptera: this unique damselfly family today contains one relict species found in the wetlands of Australia. It was, however, very diverse and widespread during the Mesozoic. Nevertheless, very few species were known,

Odonatans in lowermost Cenomanian Kachin amber: updated review and a new hemiphlebiid damselfly

Cretaceous Research, 2021
Abstract Odonatans are rare in Cretaceous amber deposits, and only four fragmentary specimens were recorded in Lebanese, Jordanian, Charentes and South Dakota ambers except for Kachin amber. This study reviewed the odonatans in lowermost Cenomanian Kachin amber and commented 11 odonatans, which were previously placed in the family level.

Discovery of a new symphytan wasp in the mid-Cretaceous Kachin amber (Hymenoptera, Syspastoxyelidae)

Palaeoentomology, 2021
The mid-Cretaceous Burmese amber from Kachin State of northern Myanmar provides a scanty but rather diverse fauna of sawflies. Herein Grandixyela rasnitsyni gen. et sp. nov. is described and illustrated on the basis of a well-preserved male specimen from Myanmar amber.

New material for Peleserphidae (Proctotrupoidea, Hymenoptera) in Mid-Cretaceous Burmese (Kachin) amber

Geological Society, London, Special Publications, 2022
Abstract A new female wasp from Cenomanian Burmese amber was described as Peleserphus qufuensis sp. nov. in the proctotrupoid family Peleserphidae, which emerged in the Late Jurassic–mid-Cretaceous. It provides new data on the diversity of the family in Cenomanian Burmese amber and extends the records to ...

A second progonocimicid (Hemiptera: Coleorrhyncha) from the middle Cretaceous Kachin amber of Myanmar

Palaeoworld
From the Late Permian to the Late Cretaceous, the ancient family Progonocimicidae of hemipteran suborder Coleorrhyncha was widely distributed across both northern and southern hemispheres. Up until now only one species has been described from Middle Cretaceous Kachin amber. Here we describe a new genus and species Awanis clarus n. gen. n.

The structure of a gilled stonefly larva from the mid-Cretaceous Kachin amber

Arthropod Structure & Development
Perlidae stands as the most diverse family within Plecoptera, with evidence suggesting possible adaptation to warmer aquatic environments. Tracheal gills are hypothesized to have played a pivotal role in this radiation process. This study presents the description of a fossilized stonefly larva with gills, preserved as a fresh exuvia in mid-Cretaceous ...
