摘要在乌克兰罗夫诺地区晚始新世琥珀中发现了一种新的蜜蜂化石。棘球绦虫（Megachilinae: Ctenoplectrellini），与那些从稍古老的波罗的海琥珀（中始新世）中发现的物种相似。这是在罗夫诺琥珀中发现的第一只蜜蜂，也是该属的第四种蜜蜂。综述了目前已知的巨型蜂类化石，回顾了该科的地质历史。
Abstract A new species of fossil bee is described and figured in Late Eocene amber from the Rovno region of the Ukraine. Ctenoplectrella zherikhini n.sp. (Megachilinae: Ctenoplectrellini), is similar to those species known from the slightly older Baltic amber (middle Eocene). This is the first bee discovered in the Rovno amber and the fourth species for its genus. The presently known megachilid bee fossils are summarized and the geological history of the family reviewed.
