A New Genus and Species of the Suborder Trogiomorpha (Insecta, Psocodea) from Mid-Cretaceous Amber of Myanmar [PDF]
We established a new genus with a new species Brachyantennum spinosum Liang et Liu, gen. et sp. nov. from mid-Cretaceous Burmese Kachin amber. It is tentatively placed into the suborder Trogiomorpha, based on the strong external valve, the reduced dorsal

Characterization of the complete mitochondrial genome of a barklouse, Lepinotus sp. (Psocodea: Trogiomorpha: Trogiidae) [PDF]
Barklice in the genus Lepinotus (Psocoptera: Trogiidae) are small, soft-bodied stored-product pests that are difficult to control. We sequenced and annotated the mitochondrial (mt) genome of Lepinotus sp. The mt genome of Lepinotus sp.

Molecular Identification of ten species of stored-product psocids through microarray method based on ITS2 rDNA [PDF]
Stored-product psocids (Psocoptera: Liposcelididae) are cosmopolitan storage pests that can damage stored products and cause serious economic loss. However, because of the body size (~1 mm) of eggs, nymphs, and adults, morphological identification of ...
