Abstract
Kim, J., Taszakowski, A., Herczek, A., Zmarzły, M., and Jung, S. 2023. New species of mirid insects and their importance for the higher classification of plant bugs. Acta Palaeontologica Polonica 68 (1): 75–83. The detailed morphological study based on the findings of well-preserved fossil specimens in Eocene Baltic amber revealed two new species, Metoisops michalskii Kim, Taszakowski, and Herczek sp. nov. and Metoisops popovi Kim, Taszakowski, and Jung sp. nov. The morphological information of the extinct genus Metoisops including diagnoses, descriptions of new species, and a species key are provided. The divided fourth antennal segment is depicted. The tribal transfer of Metoisops from Electromyiommini to Gigantometopini is proposed based on major morphological characters, five-six femoral trichobothria, presence of a deep incision between calli, and the structure of parameres. The need for a phylogenetic revision of the internal classification within Isometopinae is also discussed.
期刊介绍:
Acta Palaeontologica Polonica is an international quarterly journal publishing papers of general interest from all areas of paleontology. Since its founding by Roman Kozłowski in 1956, various currents of modern paleontology have been represented in the contents of the journal, especially those rooted in biologically oriented paleontology, an area he helped establish.
In-depth studies of all kinds of fossils, of the mode of life of ancient organisms and structure of their skeletons are welcome, as those offering stratigraphically ordered evidence of evolution. Work on vertebrates and applications of fossil evidence to developmental studies, both ontogeny and astogeny of clonal organisms, have a long tradition in our journal. Evolution of the biosphere and its ecosystems, as inferred from geochemical evidence, has also been the focus of studies published in the journal.
