A fossil ascomycete was found attached to the thorax of a stalk eyed fly (Diopsidae: Prosphyracephala succini) in a fragment of Baltic amber. The fungus is assigned to the extant genus Stigmatomyces and described as S. succini sp. nov. This find is the first fossil record of the order Laboulbeniales. At the same time it constitutes the oldest record of a parasitic fungus on an insect. The palaeohabitat is discussed with regard to the find.
在一块波罗的海琥珀碎片中，发现了一块附着在一只茎眼蝇（茎眼蝇科：琥珀原茎眼蝇）胸部的子囊菌化石。该真菌被归入现存的柱霉属，并被描述为新物种琥珀柱霉。这一发现是虫囊菌目的首个化石记录。同时，它也是寄生在昆虫身上的真菌的最古老记录。针对这一发现，对古栖息地进行了讨论。
