A new Darwin wasp (Ichneumonidae: Novichneumoninae) from mid-Cretaceous Kachin amber [PDF]
PalaeoentomologyIchneumonid wasps, also known as Darwin wasps, are relatively rare in Cretaceous amber deposits, with only the highest diversity documented from mid-Cretaceous Kachin amber. In order to enhance our understanding of the past diversity of this group, we describe and illustrate a new species belonging to the genus Rasnichneumon Kopylov et al., 2021, named

First Jurassic representative of the extinct family Peleserphidae (Hymenoptera, Proctotrupoidea) [PDF]
Journal of Hymenoptera Research, 2021 Arkadiserphus leleji Rasnitsyn, gen. et sp. nov., is described from the Upper Jurassic deposits of Karatau (Kazakhstan) in the proctotrupoid family Peleserphidae hitherto known solely from the mid-Cretaceous Burmese (Kachin) amber.

Insects, 2022 The fossils once assigned to Raractocetus Kurosawa from the Mesozoic and Cenozoic amber deposits differ from extant Raractocetus in the longer elytra, the more strongly projecting metacoxae, and the hind wing with vein 2A forked.

Extending the diversity of the bryoflora in Kachin amber (Myanmar), with the description of Radula patrickmuelleri, sp. nov. and R. tanaiensis, sp. nov. (Jungermanniopsida, Porellales, Radulaceae) [PDF]
Fossil Record, 2022 The most prolific source of exquisitely preserved bryophyte fossils is amber, which often contains inclusions in a three-dimensional and life-like state of preservation.

New species of Tanaidacea from Cretaceous Kachin amber, with a brief review of the fossil record of tanaidacean crustaceans [PDF]
Fossil Record, 2023 Tanaidaceans are benthic, mostly marine, crustaceans that live burrowed in the substrate or in self-built tubes. The fossil record of Tanaidacea reaches back to the Carboniferous, 350 million years ago, but it is especially species-rich in Cretaceous ...

A hatching aphidlion‐like lacewing larva in 100 million years old Kachin amber
Insect Science, 2022 We report a fossil aphidlion-like larva preserved with its egg case in 100 million year old Kachin amber, Myanmar. It appears to have been enclosed very shortly after hatching, especially when comparing it with extant aphidlions during hatching. Although hatching aphidlion-like larvae are known from amber from other localities, this is the first case ...
