Abstract

The fossil record of Triassic Diptera is still poor, with the oldest dipteran assemblage described from the Upper Buntsandstein of the 'Grs Voltzia Formation (early Anisian, France). From the stratigraphically closest insect fauna of the Rt Formation of Lower Franconia, Germany, the first Diptera, Bashkonia franconica gen. et sp. nov. is described based on an isolated wing. The new genus is assigned to the family Nadipteridae, bridging the gap between two other genera included.

摘要

三叠纪双翅目昆虫的化石记录仍然很少，最早的双翅目组合描述来自法国上邦斯砂岩的“Grs Voltzia 组（早安尼期）”。本文基于一个孤立的翅膀，描述了来自德国下法兰克福地区 Rt 组最接近的昆虫群的第一个双翅目昆虫，Bashkonia franconica gen. et sp. nov.。新属被归入 Nadipteridae 科，填补了两个已包含属之间的空白。
