伊朗珊瑚在新疆的发现

本文描述的伊朗珊瑚(Iranophyllum)是1971和1984年第一区调队在新疆南部昆仑山下二叠统黄羊岭群和叶桑岗组采集的,共4新种和1未定种,名单是:Iranophyllum xinjiangense(sp.nov).Ir.kunlunense(sp.nov.),Ir.clisiophylloides(sp.nov.),Ir.neoclisio-phylloides(sp.nov.),Ir.sp.A等.与其共生的有(?)类:Sumatrina annae,Verbeekina of.verbeeki,paraverbeekina of.umbi-lcata,Polydiexodina sp.,Yangchienia sp.,Neo-misellina sp.,parafusulina sp.,Chusenella sp.,Afghanella?sp.,腕足:Neospir-ifer sp.,Martinia sp.,Stenoscisma sp.,Waagenoconcha sp.,四射珊瑚:Amplexo-carinia sp.,Huangophyllum sp.,Lytvolasma sp.,plerophyllum sp.等.因此,含Ira-nophyllom的黄羊岭群和叶桑岗组应属同一层位,它们与新疆喀喇昆仑地区空喀山口组、西藏阿里地区龙格组及文部组是相当的.

热河生物群中蜘蛛和蟹奴化石几个新种

由于蜘蛛身体表面所覆盖的体壳较薄，通常保存为化石的几率较小，因此，蜘蛛化石是一类较为稀有的化石。热河生物群中的蜘蛛化石迄今尚未进行过系统描述。本文报道了属于Araneidae Leach，1819(园蛛科)、Gnaphosidae(平腹蛛科)和Theidiidae Sundeva1833(球腹蛛科)6个蜘蛛新种：Araneus liaoxiensis sp．nov．，A．aethus p．nov．，A．reheensissp．nov．，A．beipiaoensis sp，nov．，Gtuzphosq liaoningensiss p．nov．和Theridion atalus sp．nov．；以及蟹奴幼虫的一个化石新属种Mesosacculina papposa gen．etsp．nov．。这些化石均采自辽西北票黄半吉沟义县组下部(晚侏罗世-早白垩世)。

A new damselfly (Odonata: Zygoptera: Platystictidae) from mid-Cretaceous Burmese amber

The genus Mesosticta Huang, Azar, Cai et Nel, 2015 was established based on the wing bases of two damselflies from mid-Cretaceous Burmese amber. Here we describe a new well-preserved platystictid damselfly, Mesosticta electronica sp. nov., with complete forewings and hindwings. The diagnosis of Mesosticta is revised and augmented in this paper. Mesosticta electronica sp. nov. differs from Mesosticta burmatica Huang, Azar, Cai et Nel, 2015 in having the arculus slightly distal of Ax2, a free subdiscoidal cell, the hindwing AA ending on the middle area of the posterior side of the discoidal cell, and the base of RP2 being three or four cells distal of the subnodus. The new discovery adds to the diversity of damselflies in mid-Cretaceous Burmese amber and puts the origin of Platystictidae to at least the mid-Cretaceous.     

新疆塔里木盆地西—西南缘泥盆—石炭纪四射珊瑚

塔里木盆地西—西南缘石炭纪地层层序清楚,化石丰富,是新疆研究石炭系的良好地区之一。目前海相泥盆纪地层中有化石佐证的只有中泥盆世,而早泥盆世地层存在与否尚难定论。描述珊瑚计22属22种。中泥盆统3属3新种,石炭纪19属12新种。塔里木盆地西—西南缘的中泥盆统称克孜勒陶组,上泥盆统为奇自拉夫组,属陆相沉积。石炭系自下而上为下统库山河组、克里塔克组、和什拉甫组;中统卡拉乌依组、阿孜干组;上石炭统塔哈奇组、克孜里奇曼组。     

A new genus and species of pygidicranid earwigs from the Upper Cretaceous of southern Asia (Dermaptera: Pygidicranidae)

A third genus and species of fossil pygidicranid earwigs from Burmese amber is described and figured as Stonychopygia leptocerca Engel, Huang, Thomas, and Cai, gen. et sp. nov. (type species of Stonychopygia Engel and Huang, gen. nov.; Stonychopygiinae Engel and Huang, subfam. nov.). Stonychopygia have features similar to the subfamily Echinosomatinae such as the combination of shorter, subequal second and third flagellomeres and femora that are neither compressed or keeled. However, the new fossil species differs from echinosomatines in many details, particularly the slender form, head longer than wide, slender scape, slender and elongate forceps, and absence of stout, short bristles over the integument. The new fossil is compared with its contemporaneous and modern relatives, and comments are provided regarding the classification of Pygidicranoidea, with the genus Haplodiplatys Hincks removed from Diplatyidae to Haplodiplatyidae Engel, fam. nov.     

New Cretaceous carpet beetles (Coleoptera: Dermestidae) from Burmese amber

Three new species of Dermestidae are described and illustrated from the Upper Cretaceous Burmese amber: Attagenus secundus sp. nov. (Attageninae: Attagenini), Cretodermestes palpalis gen. et sp. nov. (Attageninae: Cretodermestini trib. nov.) and Megatoma atypica sp. nov. (Megatominae: Megatomini). Members of Dermestidae are relatively frequent in Burmese amber, representing at least three subfamilies: Attageninae, Dermestinae and Megatominae. Taxonomic and morphological diversity of Cretaceous Dermestidae suggests ancient origin of this group with some lineages showing remarkable evolutionary stasis for almost 100 million years.
