Abstract
Definitive fossil blue-stain fungi was documented from the Jurassic of China, extending the earliest fossil record of this fungal group by approximately 80 million years. The new finding reshapes the evolutionary timeline of blue-stain fungi, and provides new insights into the evolution of their ecological associations with wood-boring insects.
