怀特岛下白垩纪Wealden琥珀中的非叮咬性摇蚊(摇蚊科)。128.第128章被查了因此,Dungeyella gavini Jarzembowski,Azar et Nel,2008,唯一已知的摇蚊物种从这个琥珀存款,是第一次从成年男性中识别出来,并建立了Dungeyella在亚科Buchonomyiinae中的系统位置。Libanodiamesa simpsoni sp. nov.(Prodiamesinae)是该属的第二个种,以前只在下白垩纪黎巴嫩琥珀中发现。详细的形态学分析显示的字符(翅脉序模式,生殖器结构)定义为独特的两个属,其中的诊断进行了修正。本文还以白垩纪的摇蚊化石为背景,讨论了威尔顿琥珀摇蚊科的生物地理特征。(C)2018爱思唯尔有限公司版权所有
Non-biting midges (Chironomidae) from Lower Cretaceous Wealden amber of the Isle of Wight (lower Barremian, ca. 128 Ma) are reviewed. As a result, Dungeyella gavini Jarzembowski, Azar et Nel, 2008, the only chironomid species known from this amber deposit, is for the first time recognised from the adult male, and the systematic position of Dungeyella within the subfamily Buchonomyiinae is established. Libanodiamesa simpsoni sp. nov. (Prodiamesinae), now found in Wealden amber, is the second species of the genus previously only recorded from Lower Cretaceous Lebanese amber. A detailed morphological analysis revealed characters (wing venation patterns, genital apparatus structure) defined as unique for the two genera, the diagnoses of which are amended. Biogeographical features of the Wealden amber Chironomidae are also discussed against the background of their fossil records from the Cretaceous. (C) 2018 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
