Two new silken fungus beetle species (Coleoptera, Cucujiformia, Cryptophagidae) from Rovno amber

Abstract

Two new extinct species of the genus Atomaria Stephens, 1829 are described and illustrated: A. (Anchicera) bukejsi sp. nov. and A. (Anchicera) archibaldi sp. nov., both from late Eocene Rovno amber. Atomaria (Anchicera) bukejsi sp. nov. appears close to A. (Anchicera) gedanicola Lyubarsky et Perkovsky, 2013, but differs in the structure of the pronotum and antennae. Atomaria (Anchicera) archibaldi sp. nov. is similar to A. telnovi Lyubarsky et Perkovsky, 2023, but differs in the structure of the pronotum and antennae.

The new species and two new records of Polycentropodidae (Insecta: Trichoptera) from Eocene Rovno amber

“…The most studied Rovno amber locality is the Pugach quarry at Klesov in the Sarny District of the Rovno Region (Mitov et al 2021;Perkovsky et al 2024). In the last ten years the majority of better documented amber pieces with new taxa was mined in the Varash District that includes former Vladimirets and Zarechnoje districts of the Rovno Region (listed in Fedotova et al 2024 with additions in Chemyreva et al 2024 andLyubarsky et al 2024). The inclusions from Voronki (SIZK L-408, SIZK L-409) and SIZK LKV-1007 from Voronki or Kuchotskaja Volya are the first reported caddisflies from Varash District.…”
