【白亜紀の琥珀から現れたクワガタ】
ミャンマー産白亜紀の琥珀から、南半球に現生種をもつ希少なクワガタムシ亜科「Lampriminae」の最古の化石が発見された。
この新属新種Prostreptocerus burmiticusは、発達した大アゴや湾曲した爪など、当時から性的二形や戦闘行動があったことを示す特徴を持つ。現生の系統との類似は、大陸移動以前の分布と進化を物語っている。
そんな昔からクワガタっていたんですね。そうなると個人的に気になるのはカブトムシもいたかどうか。

Chinese scientists have found the fossil of Jeholia longchengi from Jehol Biota in northeast China's Liaoning, marking the first Mesozoic scorpion ever unearthed in the country. This rare scorpion fossil, dating back 125 million years, could provide insights into reconstructing the trophic dynamics of Jehol palaeo-food webs.

Following the last, we, in Cai et al. 2022-RSOS, formally treated Silphidae as a subfamily of the evolving family Staphylinidae, based on available phylogenomic data. Here Sikes and colleagues agree with this, with a critical review of evidence!

Chinese researchers have found the first fossil record of a group of Cretaceous water striders in copulation, which are trapped in amber dating back to some 100 million years ago in Myanmar, revealing the mating behavior and potential sexual conflicts among ancient insects.
