Abstract

A new genus and species of ibis fly is described from an isolated wing in amber from the Late Albian-Early Cenomanian of Charentes, southwestern France. Galloatherix incompletus gen. et sp. n., is the first Athericidae fossilized in Cretaceous amber, and only the eighth Mesozoic species. It adds to the diverse aquatic and semiaquatic paleobiota already identified from Charentese amber.

摘要

从法国西南部夏朗德省晚阿尔比阶-早塞诺曼阶琥珀中一块孤立的翅膀标本中，描述了一种新的朱鹭蝇属和物种。不完全加洛鹭蝇（Galloatherix incompletus gen. et sp. n.）是首个在白垩纪琥珀中化石保存的沼蝇科物种，也是中生代的第八个物种。它丰富了已从夏朗德琥珀中识别出的多样的水生和半水生古生物群。
