Article Synopsis
  • Pseudonotherobius kohlsi and Megalomus? coloradensis are newly identified species of lacewings from the early Eocene era, found in Colorado’s Green River Formation.
  • Pseudonotherobius is characterized by a specific crossvein in its forewings and a uniquely dilated hind wing, which sets it apart within its family.
  • The genus is tentatively placed within the Carobiinae subfamily, hinting at its similarity to a modern Australian lacewing species.

We describe two larvae of Raphidioptera probably belonging to different genera of Raphidiidae, the first recorded from middle Eocene Sakhalinian amber and late Eocene Rovno amber. The Sakhalinian larva is the first confirmed representative of Raphidioptera from the Cenozoic of Asia, and most probably the oldest larvae of an extant family of the order. The Rovno amber larva is the first European Cenozoic immature raphidiopteran found outside of Russo-Scandia.

The osmylid subfamily Protosmylinae is revised based on our emended diagnosis: Petrushevskia Martynova, 1958 and Mesosmylidus Jepson et al., 2012 are excluded (both considered Osmylidae incertae sedis), and Sogjuta Martynova, 1958 is transferred to it from the Mesosmylininae. The late Eocene genus Protosmylus Krüger, 1913 is considered a junior synonym of Osmylidia Cockerell, 1908 based on a distinct apomorphy (deeply forked MA in the hind wing), syn.

Prolachlanius resinatus (Hagen) is re-described, based on five specimens from late Eocene Baltic amber (including the neotype designated herein) and the first recorded specimen from contemporaneous Rovno amber (Klesov locality). This is the most common species of Hemerobiidae in Baltic amber. The forewing venation of Prolachlanius is most similar to that of Sympherobius, and, therefore, its assignment to Sympherobiinae is confirmed.

Grammapsychops lebedevi Martynova, 1954 from the Late Cretaceous (Cenomanian) of Siberia is re-described based on the holotype. The species is represented by a hind wing as its CuA is definitely concave, although the costal space is strongly dilated. This genus together with three other Cretaceous genera (i.

Article Synopsis
  • Xenoberotha angustialata is a newly identified species from the early Eocene period, found in Colorado's Green River Formation.
  • It is the oldest known member of the Berothinae subfamily, distinguished by its unique scale-like setae on the foreleg coxae.
  • Additionally, it features a novel trait with distal crossveins of the fourth gradate series unusually close to the wing margin, which hasn't been observed in other Berothinae before.
