Two new fossil species of Itaphlebia (Mecoptera: Nannochoristidae) from Jiulongshan Formation, Inner Mongolia, China
Keyword(s):
Two new species, Itaphlebia exquisita sp. nov and Itaphlebia laeta sp. nov., were collected from the Jiulongshan Formation (Middle Jurassic) of Daohugou, Inner Mongolia, China. A key to the species of the genus Itaphlebia is provided and diagnosis of the genus is revised. Itaphlebia exquisita sp. nov differs from other species in having an extra medial vein branch. Itaphlebia laeta sp. nov shows a transitional character to the extant genera by having a simple Sc. These new findings expand the distribution of Itaphlebia from middle-southern Russia to northeastern China.
